Using The Power of Your Mind to Turn Your Dreams Into Reality

​What exactly is power? Let's take a look at the actual definition of power. Power: noun The capacity or ability to direct or influence the behavior of others or the course of events. Influencing behavior and directing the course of events would be pretty important things to do as you are managing your life, right?  So, have​ you ever considered the power that lies within yourself? Have you ever just “made up your mind” to do something and just did it? What about employing “mind over matter” and suddenly you have decided that you are no longer ticklish. How can that be? Then there are stories of the ages that tell of a character who had “it” within themselves all along:

Dumbo didn’t need a feather to fly
 Or 
Dorothy: Didn’t need the wicked witch’s shoes to get home


Why is this a common theme and why is it so profound? Because it can’t be that simple, right?

Let’s begin with your mind is more powerful than you can possibly imagine. Your mind is where you house your beliefs and thoughts. As we extrapolate that out through Gandhi’s famous quote, you can see just how powerful your mind can be:

“Your beliefs become your thoughts, Your thoughts become your words, Your words become your actions, Your actions become your habits, Your habits become your values, Your values become your destiny.”
― Gandhi

When we speak of mindset, this is the connection we are referring to. There is an undeniable linkage from what goes on in your brain. Even on the subconscious level, your brain is sending communication to how you behave. The one doesn’t exist without the other.

Think about that for a minute: if what you think drives your behaviors and those behaviors ultimately define your destiny, then it’s time to start thinking about what you are thinking about!

Attention all mindless wanderers, it’s time to start getting intentional about what you are feeding your mind! Are you reading doom and gloom stories put out by the media to sensationalize and put fear into people? Are you reliving a mistake you made in the past and your brain is telling yourself that you are an idiot? What about just going through the motions and no longer caring to think about the impact you are having on yourself or others? Are you clinging to beliefs that do not serve you in a positive manner? If you answered yes to any of these things, then it’s time for a change.

5 Ways to Harness the Power of Your Mind:

  1. Visualize what you want in your life
  2. Focus on positivity as the norm for your life
  3. Set your intentions each day to ground you in your vision for your life
  4. Meditate on using the power of your mind to help overcome difficulties and thrive each day.
  5. Quiet the Inner Critic (that negative voice in your head). Choose positive affirmations instead.


All the power you need to propel your dreams into reality is lying dormant within you. Get started today and lay the foundation for a successful new year!

Shine On!
