Every butterfly starts off as a worm..
Every peacock starts off as a yolk..
The difference between the start and the end is the transformation that takes place.
Wormy thoughts...
The Bible teaches that we should be "transformed by our thinking".
Naturally, unless trained to move towards the positive, our minds will tend to gravitate towards the negative.
This is especially so because life ever has its boxing gloves on - there is never a day without a challenge no matter how positive we are about it.
What determines the end result is how we handle the challenges that come our way.
It was never meant to be easy...
That is why we are encouraged to train our minds, so to speak.
Unless we decide to dwell on positive thoughts, life can beat us down even in our achievem
ents. Discontentment will follow us everywhere we go no matter how high we rise.
Butterfly mentality...
Instead of living with a "barely-get-by" mentality, always fill your head with positive thoughts.
When you are tempted to feel like a worm, always remember that..
You are blessed
You are talented
You are valuable
You are confident
You have been hand-picked by the Creator of the universe.

※ Reprograming of the mind..
This is not just a way to overcome one challenge.
When you think positively, you are reprogramming your mind - opening doors you never thought existed.
When you gain confidence on yourself, you get the confidence to turn things around...
Like...
※ walking out of a bad situation.
※ Saying no when you know you are being exploited.
※ Chasing a business deal that seems out of your league.
※ Approach a very respected person and ask for advice without feeling like a failure..
The list is endless..
As long as you are stuck in the "worm" mentality, your mind will only think on how to get by...not how to get there.
A worm is stuck on the ground.. It can only see as far as it is..the ground. Some cannot even see...so they just get by., so to speak.
A butterfly is in the air and will get to see something that is far from it, spread its wings and get there.
**Perhaps the butterfly is proof that you can go through immense darkness and emerge immensely beautiful**
That is what transformation does for us.. You see something that seemed so far off, but you are not scared to reach for it. You believe thay you have it in you to fly there and get there.
This does not happen overnight, its a day-to-day process. And it all starts in the mind.
You may find yourself asking about a particular subject...say about getting someone to finance a project..and the person tells you how you can expand your business without even borrowing!!
Had you not had the courage and confidence to speak up, you would never have landed on that secret.
*Confidence is never about being better than everyone else... Its the secret knowledge that you have the capacity to outdo yourself.*
Confidence can help you think farther than you can see.
They say you always get what you look for...so when you set your mind on a certain goal you will find ways of getting there.
But as long as you believe you can never achieve it, you will not have even a single clue come your way.

Start each day knowing that...
You are blessed
You are talented
You are valuable
You are confident
You have been hand-picked by the Creator of the universe.
Then go through the day believing that.
Five months down the line, you will be amazed by the result of such a simple exercise.
One year down the line you will be on the lips of all and sundry, and everyone will look to you for inspiration.
It all starts today...
Transform your mind.
This is Serenity...
