The mind is what we see with
the mind is what we hear with
what we see and do is always influenced by the way we see the world
what we hear is filtered through the way think
Our mind set is one of our greatest friends
it is also one of our strongest foes
changing the way think sometimes can change the way our lives turn out
I think a person only grows old when they get a mind set, when they stop changing, stop growing
I love how a child is always learning, is so inquisitive, even sometimes so fearless
I think we should only grow...But not grow old. We are eternal beings after all, the casing on the outside will let us down. But the rest will live on
Our mind set will influence everything we do! But often I have found that I don't think about what I'm thinking...I just accept it, I know I have missed out on opportunities in God and in life because of that!
Jesus said this "I tell you the truth, unless you change and become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. (Mt 18:3)
One of your greatest gifts is the ability to change. The ability to grow
don't get stuck...As comfy as it may be!!!

Doing little
The big things in life are a combination of all the little things we do.
There is an add here in Australia which shows people going about their jobs saying "one powerball and I'm out of here"
Powerball is the name of our lotteries system, you buy numbers which a machine randomly chooses. If it chooses your numbers you win millions.
It has become a catch phrase! "one powerball..." People watch the television with their lucky numbers, hoping their life is about to change. There is a 1 in 3 000 000 chance they may win the lottery, possible yes, but not worth counting on.
If a person spends $10 per week on lotto tickets, in a year they will have spent $520 on chance. Of which they will more than likely not see any returns.
Over a lifetime the amount they would spend equates to thousands of dollars, on a 1 in 3000 000 chance.
If a person was to spend $10 on educating themselves on investment, or if they invested $10 per week over a lifetime they would more than likely end up millionaires.
Its like Pantene "it doesn't happen over night, but it will happen."
Its a principle in life really, its what we do day by day, the little things that make all the difference to our existence in the long run.
Everyday is a gift, do something little today.
