What We Believe

It’s been said before, that as a person thinks in their head, so they are. There is a logical, scientific and a more less scientific reason for that.

If you don’t believe you can do something, people usually don’t do it. People don’t believe they can walk on water or fly so people don’t usually try it. Once they have proven they can’t, they don’t usually try it again. So if you don’t believe you can’t do something, you don’t do it.

This belief in your head, can shape you as a person. If you believe you can’t do things, it will effect you and shape you. Not being able to do things, or telling yourself can be very frustrating.

On the more logical side, your brain controls your body, and your thoughts come from your brain. It’s not much of a leap of logic that the very thing that controls your body or the mechanics that make you do things, can shape who you are. If you believe in your head that I’m no good or such thoughts, it will affect your brain. It’s like having a moment of indecision when trying to decide where to go. You want to believe you are something, but your brain is listening to your thoughts of unbelief in yourself.

With the scientific side, your brain is constantly growing. The more you make friends, talk, or do things to challenge your brain encourages healthy growth. A brain that has a lot of negative thoughts compared to a brain with a positive brain, is a lot more inferior. The reason so is, that a brain that has negative thoughts, causes stress. Stress releases toxins in the body, and makes you feel tired amongst other things.

In a nut shell, whether thinking positive thoughts or negative thoughts is the difference between the brain commanding the body to take care of itself or hurt it. Meaning, if your brain is thinking negative thoughts, and releasing toxins into your body, it’s going to affect how you do things. Which in turn, can affect your thoughts about yourself due to success or failure. So basically so to speak, as your think in your head so you are.

Our thoughts can control us if we allow it. Ultimately, we control our thoughts, and not vice versa. It can happen, but we cannot allow our thoughts to effect who we are. There is a magic side to our brains being affected, but also there is a logical explanation. Either one will lap over the other were things cannot be explained about the brain. 

However, either way, negative thoughts, do effect our actions and us. As Olympian champions prep their bodies, so do they prep their minds. They prepare for their bodies to be champions and they prepare their minds to have thoughts like a champion. If they do that to succeed, we who just want to win in life on smaller scale should be aware of our body and our mind. If it doesn’t believe it can do it, it’s not going to ask the rest of the things it controls to even try.
