What You Think About Most Quietly Directs Your Success | Earl Nightingale

If a stranger could listen in on your unplanned thoughts from the last seven days, what would they say you were trying to do with your life? The answer may surprise you.

This 1-hour Earl Nightingale-inspired commentary explains why the thought your mind returns to when nothing is assigned quietly directs your attention, your choices, and your conduct, and how to redirect it without fighting yourself. Through invented examples of a freight dispatcher, a young teacher, a bakery owner, and a builder, you will learn the four families of dominant thought (aim, worry, grievance, resignation), a simple three-day attention log, an aim question, a worry-to-action list, and a two-week practice called name it, ask it, step. Closes with a calm mental rehearsal and honest cautions about what thinking can and cannot do. Topics: goals, clear goal, worthy ideal, attitude, attention habits, disciplined thought, personal growth, purposeful work.
