I am what I think about all day long.
Whoever I am, I am that person first in my mind. Whatever I accomplish,
I accomplish it first in my mind. Whatever I become, I become it first
in my mind.
The way I use my mind defines what it means to be me. At the most basic
level, I am what I think about all day long.
My mind is the only part
of me that can change or that would ever be worth changing. If I want
to change who I am, I must change the collection of thoughts that
defines what it means to be me.
What I think about is important, because it changes who I am. When I
think positive thoughts, I become a more positive person. When I think
empowering thoughts, I become a stronger person. When I think
resourceful thoughts, my life moves in the direction of excellence, and
I become a better person. When I think unlimited thoughts, I realize
there is no limit to how good my life can become.
I become what I think about all day long.

What you talk about matters a great deal because it expands into
your life.
When your talk is positive, good things start to happen..
When your talk is negative,
misery and limitations become your unwanted guests.
Jesus taught that you are to talk to your problems and not
about your problems.
When you talk about your problems with everyone you meet, you
magnify those challenges until they become a stronghold in your
mind. They occupy the high ground and rooting them out is
difficult. Every time you talk about your problems, you
increase their power. When you focus on them, they become
stronger, and you become weaker.
Jesus said that if you have faith the size of a grain of mustard
seed, you can tell a mountain to move into the sea, and it will
happen. Jesus wanted you to be a mountain mover.
Jesus used
his mountain story to make an important point. You have to
talk to the mountains in your life before they will move.
All of your problems - your mountains - are waiting to hear from
you, and if you start speaking words of faith, your mountains will
move.
No matter what your problem, you must talk to it.
If you are
depressed, you must talk to your depression and start pushing
back. Tell your depression that God's love is the most
positive and most powerful force in the universe, and His love is
filling your heart and mind. Tell your depression that you
are made in the image of God, and that God loves you and accepts
you the way that you are. Tell your depression that God's
love changes the way you think and feel. You are a new
person with a new life.
The wheel of change always turns in
the direction of what you put into your mind, and you must start
filling your mind with positive things. If you want to move
a mountain of depression out of your life, you'll have to start
talking to your depression rather than talking about it.
If your life is full of problems, don't make matters worse by
commiserating over your problems with everyone you meet.
Instead, start talking to your mountains and cast them into the
sea.
Jesus once asked a sick man if he wanted to be healed. This
was not an academic question. It addressed the heart and
soul of what it takes to get well. The first step in getting
well, is wanting to get better.
When you want to get better, and you expect to get better, you
will no longer talk about your problems. You will start
talking to your problems and mountains will start moving in your
life.
If you want to be free from depression, nobody can stop you.
