WINNING ATTITUDE - THE POWER OF THE MIND

“We are here to become great men and women, and with that purpose in view, we must eliminate everything in our religion and philosophy that tends to make the human mind a dependent weakling. If you would serve God and be truly religious, do not kneel before God, but learn to walk with God, and do something tangible every day to increase the happiness of mankind. This is religion that is worthwhile, and it is such religion alone that can please the Infinite.” 

Your mind is your greatest asset and most important resources. Investing on your mind is the best investment ever. The reason is whatever we feed our mind with is what it produces back to us. Put it this way, your actions are a bye product of your thinking. Let us take for instance, if you keep telling yourself that you’re a failure, then you most certainly will fail. Not because you are not good at what you do, but because you feed your mind with the wrong information. Feed your mind with positivity, think about winning, think about that business working out just as you dream't it, think about you being the best in your job. There is more to what you can achieve. It doesn't just end with you sitting in that chair feeling depressed and all bitten down. Fix your mind on positive things long enough, you will see it come alive. What you think is what you see, what you see is what you become.

To become a winner, engage your mind in the following exercises
  • Constant Learning; Don’t stop learning new things about your dream, job or that vision you want to achieve. Expand your learning to other fields as well. Become vast in your learning, it will broaden your horizon and open up new vistas to you and give you a clearer picture as to where you are going.
  • Meditation and Brainstorming; Meditation is a practice where an individual trains the mind or induces a mode of consciousness, either to realize some benefit or for the mind to simply acknowledge its content without becoming identified with that content, or as an end in itself (Wikipedia). This is one of the best mind exercises that a person can engage in. it opens the mind to the positive forces of nature and helps you ease off stress and anxiety. Meditate on your ideas and goals. In brainstorming on the other hand, you think deeply about your ideas, you ask crazy questions and even think out loud. Brainstorming can lead you to further research and study that will help you achieve your dreams.


The mindset of winners is without doubt, always firm on the truth and ready to defend it at all cost. To be a winner in whatever you do, you must first be true to yourself. Being and staying true to oneself is key to becoming a winner..
