"Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words
will never harm me." Remember that saying from childhood?
The truth is, words
can affect someone's entire life, good or bad.
There is a verse in
the Bible that says, "Life and death are in the power of
the tongue."
I would encourage you
to be aware of the words that come out of your mouth. To be
aware of the 'programming' you are inputting into those around you.
You especially need to be aware of those things you
are saying to yourself. What kind of 'programming' are you installing in
yourself?
If you go around saying things like, "I'm so stupid", "I'm so
clumsy", "I don't know enough to do that", "I'll always be broke",
. . . That is what you are programming yourself for.
You may not even have
realized the things you've said to yourself up to this point. Often they can
flash through your mind so fast you aren't even aware of them. (But your
subconscious hears them.) Hopefully after reading this you will
start being aware, and will start programming yourself in a positive way.
I'm going to keep it
short this week. There is a lot to think about in these few short paragraphs.
My hope is that you and I take it to heart, and 'program' not only
ourselves, but those around us, for the good.
