If you want to progress in life, you have to think beyond yourself, you have to think beyond where you are and have broad-minded thoughts. That means that something must replace your old thoughts. You have to become a visionary, become creative, become innovative. Always thinking out of the box just like successful entrepreneurs do.
Do not allow anything to limit your thoughts. Take the limits off your mind. Think boldly of going where no man has gone before, think of going beyond the boundaries. Do nothing out of selfish interest but put the interest of others at heart just as Jesus Christ always did.
Expand your territory. Do you know that there is a connection between the quality of your thoughts and the quality of your life? Often times, what we think determines who we are, where we go, what we do, what we possess, where we live, who we associate with and even what we accomplish. According to James Allen in his timeless classic – As a man Thinketh, “All that a man achieves and all that he fails to achieve is the direct result of his own thoughts”.
When you earnestly think beyond you, you are thinking of growing, of building a positive future which probably may bring about some changes in your life. And for this significant change to occur, you have to establish a good communication channel with the Almighty Creator, your Alpha and your Omega, who has made you in His own image and likeness. The one Who sees what other people cannot see and hears what other people cannot hear. Remember the passage in John’s gospel that says that “the son can do nothing by himself”. So as you open the spiritual channels of your mind to communicate with God, ask Him to increase your thinking capacity and be rest assured that God will download divine creative thoughts in your brain. In fact, HE will not only grant you your prayer requests but He will also add “jara”, l mean – add more for you.
Real growth happens, when we think beyond ourselves and see every interaction with another person as an opportunity to explore and grow. And yes, you will also reach beyond yourself when you take advantage of those opportunities to do something for another person. Remember to allow your every thought to be a significant building block that will determine the quality of your future. However, there may be times when you may fall, don’t worry and don’t allow the shame of the fall to discourage you from achieving your dream because the main shame will be when you fail to have a dream at all. – Think positive, unleash the power of your mind and learn to promote possibility thinking.

Thanks, Betty for opening up to both young and old the powers if mind. You have aptly pointed out many ways we can shape our lives the way it should go or the way we wish to. Good use of our mind is vital and the intrinsic power of of the mind is best experienced when we align it with God 's light,word and power .With God all things are possible thus we are well disposed and equipped to achieve most of our goals by centering our thoughts ,speech and actions on God who created all things. Doing this we open up our lives to His Divine force and influence. The possibility of our failing in our enterprises, spiritual and material becomes non existent when we are God focussed and driven. The light thrown by you , Betty , on having this mindset and following this path in one's entrepreneurial endeavour is much and well appreciated . Thank you.
