"Truly, thoughts are things, and their scope of operation is the world, itself."
Napolean Hill, Think & Grow Rich
My certified lesson that I keep repeating over & over again! Dang It!
THOUGHTS ARE THINGS! THOUGHTS ARE THINGS! THOUGHTS ARE THINGS! THOUGHST ARE THINGS, RASHIDA MINGO!!!!!! OMG, so this morning, we’re walking out the door. And, I quickly place my son’s Sippy Cup in my Bag. We get out the door into the car. And, we’re driving to work. He starts to ask for his milk. I’m driving, so I wait to we get really close to the day care at a stop light. I am looking for the cup, but couldn’t find. I reach down further into my bag……and this is my response, “NOOOO NOOOO NOOOOOOOO!!!!”…my son’s response, “nooo nooo noooo (repeating). I wanted to say "Bleepa Dee Bleep Bleep mailto:Bleep*#@"!!!!!!
His milk has wasted all over my HBS Packet that I am have been compiling since Mid March. It’s about 60 Pages now including the application, pointer notes, essay ideas, admission consultant pointers…etc….I react quickly (while sitting at the Red Light), unclip the packet & take off the essay I wrote yesterday b/c of course it’s the one soaked the most. I peel them apart and put them on the vent on my dashboard and turn on my heat to dry them.
Now, I a slowly start to calm down. As, I am relieved that my essays are not completely destroyed b/c I just so happened to write them with a FOUTAIN INK PEN!!! OHHHHH (SMH). Anyway, I salvaged my essays and packet and it is drying right now as we speak. But, I can’t help but to think about yesterday, when I was bloggin’ about how my essays were all on paper. I need to transfer them into electronic media. I had the thought after that (before something happens to them).
Subsequently, I thought, “aint nothing gon happen to ‘em (my country dialect).” This morning, of course, the unthinkable…..or shall I say the thinkable thought did happen. I just kept saying to myself, THOUGHTS ARE THINGS! THOUGHTS ARE THINGS! THOUGHTS ARE THINGS! So, as you go throughout your day today, please know that THOUGHTS ARE THINGS….and the universal laws of nature work whether you know them to be true or not.
As Always…..Be Luv,
Rashida
I first learned about this law when I read Think & Grow Rich for the 1st time in the Summer of 2004 at Borders on West End in Nashville, TN. At the time, I was a graduate student & couldn't afford to buy the book. So, I would go next door to this shopping center & sit in my favorite Book store in a corner & listen to some great music & read.
