A New Day - Weeds destroy the garden of your mind

By
Managing Real Estate Broker

 


A mind filled with negative thoughts is like a beautiful garden full of weeds. The weeds destroy everything in the area and spread very quickly when not removed.

If you want to succeed, enjoy happiness and live a life of abundance, and prosperity - you have to eliminate any consistent negative thinking, and negative beliefs. You need to destroy the weeds in the garden of your mind. Pull them out as fast as they get in and replace them with beautiful flowers.  

Don’t allow  anyone to plant weeds in your garden, not even you.

Tend to the garden of your mind. Discover and begin removing the weeds of negative and limiting thinking. Replace these weeds with new seeds - of positive thinking, positive feelings and positive living. 

Positive thoughts are not enough. There have to be positive feelings and positive actions.

What a wonderful analogy and so very true. Thank you for sharing your post with all of us.

I week my garden on a regular basis and I surround myself with a number of people, especially my wife, that don't allow weeds in my garden.

Richard and Beth, I understand and agree with your sentiments.  We tend to dwell too much on our "weeds".
