Our courage is the guardian of the soul

It is good to take control of your thoughts. It may not be easy at first. Through practise you will be able to.

You do not have to entertain every thought that comes into your head. If a bad thought comes into your head replace it with a good thought. It may be a little difficult at first, but with practice you will see that you can control your thoughts.

For example, lets say you miss a bus, instead of cursing why you are always so unlucky, you can make use of the waiting time to run a short errand nearby the bus stop.

It would also be beneficial if you can stop hanging around negative people. Believe it or not our brains are sending and receiving centers. We send out thought waves and we pick up thought waves. That is why you want to hang around and emulate positive and successful people.

When you first embark upon any endeavor it may seem a little scary to you and you may start to think fearful thoughts, but don’t let that stop you. Maria Duval said, “Our courage is the guardian of the soul and courage overcomes fears.” You overcome your fears by action. When you take action you will see that with each step your confidence will grow and grow. You will find that your fears have become a thing of the past.

Where you are in life right now and where you will end up in life will be from the thoughts you hold in your mind and the decisions you make from those thoughts.
