ReNew Your Mind

"As a man (or woman) thinks in his heart, so is he."  Proverbs 23:7

Who are you?  What you think about you bring about.  So again, we ask, "Who are you?  What are you bringing about in your life?"

There are so many quotes about the importance of a renewed mind.

"A mind is a terrible thing to waste."

"Where the mind goes, the man (or woman) follows."

"We are shaped by our thoughts; we become what we think. When the mind is pure, joy follows like a shadow that never leaves."  Buddha

"You are who you are and what you are because of what has gone into your mind. You can change who you are and what you are by changing what goes into your mind." - Zig Ziglar

Regardless of how many times we have heard or read these quotes, they still ring true to this day.  Renewing your mind is essential if you want to transform in one, if not all areas of your life.  Not only is it essential but it's the primary step above everything else.  New Image University doesn't even consider it to be an option.

Change starts in the mind first.  How you view your day before getting out of bed in the mornings starts in the mind.  The creative process of a new project starts in the mind.  Your behavior and how you respond to certain situations begin in the mind.  Deciding what to eat or cook for breakfast, lunch or dinner starts in the mind. Everything starts in the mind.

Having said that, if you don't change your mind, then your desire to change your life from old to new is basically a moot point.  No mind change.  No life change.  It's just that simple.  Before you can experience the pursuit of happiness, you must first embark on the pursuit of  Renewing the Mind.

"The energy of the mind is the essence of life." - Aristotle

Renew means to make like new, restore to freshness, vigor, or perfection, to make new spiritually, to restore into existence, and to make extensive changes in (your mind). In other words, you regenerate, revive, and rebuild.

    *REGENERATE new brain cells and a new mindset

    *REVIVE the dead areas of your brain so that your mind becomes active with flourishing thoughts

     *REBUILD the structure of the mind and make the necessary mental repairs

Once you make the life-changing decision to renew your mind, the decluttering process will begin.  The old, stinking thinking will be exchanged for a new, refresh way of thinking.  You will no longer be susceptible to all the lies that may be thrown your way in an attempt to diminish or strip away your self-confidence, and your willpower.  That's because you know the truth.

You are fantabulous.  You are destined to do great and unbelievable things.  You have a renewed and strong mind.  You are not weak-minded.  You stand tall.  You stand firm.  You are victorious and bold in your truth.  You are no longer thinking naturally, but supernaturally.

"To enjoy good health, to bring true happiness to one's family, to bring peace to all, one must first discipline and control one's own mind. If a man can control his mind he can find the way to Enlightenment, and all wisdom and virtue will naturally come to him." - Buddha
