Seven Words That Will Change Your Life!
You become what you think about most.
Have you ever wondered why some people are successful, and others are not? Successful people seem to attract what they want in life, while unsuccessful people seem to have everything turn sour on them. The good news is that you can learn to think like a successful person!
Since I'm a public speaker, I often put things in threes. So here are three phrases that will change your life:
1. As You Think!
In 1903, James Allen wrote a book entitled “As You Think, So Shall You Be.” Many years later, motivational speaker Wayne Dyer spruced up that concept in his book, “As You Think, So Shall You Become.” Both books alluded to the fundamental concept I want to discuss today: You become what you think about most! Those seven words can change your life!
If you spend too much energy thinking negatively, you'll attract negative things. But if you think positively, you'll attract success. Imagine if you focused on "I have arthritis" all day; soon, you'd believe it's true, even if you started pain-free.
Our thoughts shape our reality. Could you ponder this: What percentage of your mental energy goes toward toxic thinking?
2. As You Speak!
You can't have what you speak against. Speaking words of doubt prevents blessings from manifesting. For example, saying, “I'll never get well,” can hinder healing. But speaking positively creates positive outcomes. God tells us to speak to the mountains, not go around them. Let's start calling things as we want them to be, not as they are now. Our words have the power to shape our world!
3. As You Seek!
Romans 12:2 urges us not to conform to this world but to be transformed by renewing our minds. Our physical form limits us; we can only run fast or lift so much. But in our imagination, anything is possible! Imagine biting into a natural lemon. Your mind makes your mouth water. When we renew our vision, we rise above limitations.
Like the prodigal son, sometimes we need to “come to ourselves” (Luke 15). We may feel pig-dirty, but we have the mind of Christ within us (1 Cor. 2:16). Listen to that inner voice urging you to leave the pigpen. With renewed vision, you can walk in victory!
These three mental shifts—thinking positively, speaking life, and seeking renewed vision—have helped me through tough times. I pray they encourage you, too! You have fantastic potential.
Let's think, speak, and see from a place of empowerment. With God's help, we can walk in freedom and blessing!

In Mind Viruses: Diagnosing What's Defeating You, Mike Robertson shows us how to find fulfillment by changing our thoughts. Mike shows us that if we adjust our thinking, we can live the life we've always dreamed of.
Everyone wants to be successful in life. We all want to overcome our problems, hardships, and difficulties and achieve our dreams. Unfortunately, many of us struggle daily to succeed. Though our culture offers many solutions to our problems, these solutions always fail. We wish we could find solutions to our spiritual, physical, and relational difficulties, but an answer seems to elude us.
Through practical illustrations and solid Biblical teaching, Mike helps us identify toxic thoughts designed to destroy our destiny.
As you apply the principles of the Mind Viruses book to your life, you will begin to discover the life you always thought was possible.
