Are you a prisoner of your thoughts?

This morning, I found this visual on FB (have no idea who the image belongs to, as it has gone viral)  that I shared:







I laughed in delight when I read it. How true this is.



Why in the world should one tolerate the 'time-wasters'? The older I get, the more picky I become about who I choose to spend my time with. (I had written a post on this here)



 "You are the average of five people you spend the most time with," said Jim Rohn , a motivational speaker.

If you want a superb analysis of this statement, I urge you to read this well written article.

I quote from the above article:

You may be the most conscious and smartest individual around, but if you
are constantly surrounded by negative, fear-based people in your life,
it will have an impact on who you eventually become and your progression
in life. If you are heavily rooted in yourself, there might be a
limited downside that negative friends can bring you. However, you are
also getting a limited upside because you are spending time with people
who are holding you back vs people who can be elevating you.

Does this advocate intolerance and selfishness? I do not think so.

I think we owe it to ourselves to give ourselves a chance to excel personally. If you are constantly pulled down by people who do not have as much courage as you, then it is going to be that much harder for you to break free.



We have to constantly strive to excel and push our own limits.



The moment we stop doing that, we stagnate.



What many of us do not also realise is that we are prisoners of our own thoughts. 

What is impossible?



Nothing really!



Watch this amazing video:

It is about a minute and sixteen seconds.



 I guarantee you will not fail to be moved.

 And inspired.



Go out there and give it your best!
Chuck out the negative people--the doubters, the ones who get you down.
Work hard towards where you want to be.

And you will definitely achieve it.



You do deserve the best.



Now go grab it!
