If I want to know where my life is going I need to take a closer look at where my attention and action is.  If I find myself in a situation and wonder how I got there, I can backtrack and look at the decisions I made along the way. Those decisions and actions stemmed from a way of thinking.  If I look at my habits and my ways of being, those are a result of my accumulation of actions which came from decisions based on thoughts and feelings.  In looking at my character, I can take a step back to my habits which stemmed from my actions which came from my decisions based on thoughts and feelings.  My character will dictate my destiny.  Everything stems from my thoughts which in turn generate feelings based on my perception of a situation which becomes the basis for my decisions which create my actions which form habits, which develop character and write my destiny.  Many a well-known person has laid that all out, perhaps more eloquently than me, but hopefully you get the point.  The embodiment of who I am being today is a result of the thoughts that I think.  So if I want to make an adjustment to my life I must start with what thoughts am I filling my mind with.  There are many unconscious thoughts that go on below the surface which are based on programming from earlier life experiences.  This why we react to things in seemingly incomprehensible ways.  The first step is awareness of our automatic thinking.  My prayer for you today is that you have the courage to stop and recognize the thoughts that run through your head.  Becoming aware of them will begin to shed light on what fills your life.  Make it a great one!  Peace~Colleen
