It has been said that as a person thinks so they become. This has been scientifically proven. Just because we have thought negatively in the past does not mean that we have to keep doing that. We can retrain our brain. According to Steven Aitchinson of
"Change Your Thoughts, Change Your Life"
In his widely-acclaimed book, The Brain That Changes Itself: Stories of Personal Triumph from the Frontiers of Brain Science, Norman Doidge M.D. states plainly that the brain has the capacity to rewire itself and/or form new neural pathways — if we do the work. Just like exercise, the work requires repetition and activity to reinforce new learning.
Imagine your brain and forming new pathways to health, happiness, and contentment. But you must do the work - the conditioning if you will. Just like muscles grow into new shapes when we start to lift weights and do what they are supposed to do, our brains can be remolded into positive thinking machines!

Yes it is true. gargabe in, garbage out. But today you can change that. Instead of watching the TV for hours or worrying yourself silly lets take action today to rewire those neural pathways. Listen to positive message, listen to the Bible online, or put in your favorite Audiobook with a positive message. There is no need to stay stuck in the same rut of thinking. Change your thoughts and you can change your life today!
What would happen if we got into agreement with what God says about us and stopped believing the Enemy?
