The Magic of Thinking Big by David J. Schawrtz
“Believe it can be done. When you believe something can be done, really believe, your mind will find the ways to do it. Believing a solution paves the way to solution.” David J. Schawrtz
Well if you have read any of my other stuff you will know that I am a big thinker and even bigger dreamer. I think all the time and thus why I find it easy to sit and write.
Thinking compared to thinking big differs in that it is more a focus on the way you think. After reading this book I feel the author would hope that you will gain ideas, principles and tools for training your thoughts to help you lead a more successful life.
You are what you think; believe you can succeed and you will.
“You can cooperate and not compromise your core values. But I’m a realist with the philosophy that sometimes you’ve got to take bites out of the apple instead of the whole apple.” Jason T. Smith
Having interviewed hundreds of people for this show, a common theme that keeps presenting itself is the idea that we need to make compromise in life. It goes with the principle that to get more of something we have to give more of something.
Therefore in life if you want more of something you may have to give up or give more of something else. Can we have it all – yes, I believe we can. However, we may have to sacrifice some aspect of life now in order to live with a greater quality of life later.
I believe however that we must not compromise our values and beliefs, but rather make compromises in life so that we live more closely aligned with these values and beliefs today.
I hope you can enjoy my thought and that it helps you along your journey. Peace, passion & purpose.

128: Book Reflections| The Mastery of Self by Don Miguel Ruiz Jr.
“This book is a master class on how to release false ideas about your reality, dissolve outdated agreements that do not serve your true nature, and step into your role as the passionate artist of your own life.” Don Miguel Ruiz
This book is a must read! I absolutely loved it and just love the powerful messages contained within. Our reality is a creation by up domesticated state of awareness. If we can shift our awareness and realise the our reality is within out control, releasing ourselves from any false beliefs or attachments, we can open up a path in life that is absolutely our own.
Don talks about domestication in greater detail in this book but essentially it is how from a young age we are domestic by receiving rewards and punishment that build to form our beliefs and behaviours and therefore depicting our current reality. We often attach ourselves to these states of being that are responsible for holding us back from living a truly authentic life.
The challenge of the unknown future is so much more exciting than the stories of the accomplished past. Simon Sinek
When you face challenge and experience adversity – do not give up! It is within these moments that we really need to test ourselves. If we stop due to self-doubt and limiting beliefs we will never reach our ultimate desires. We must push forward.
It is within the faces of challenge that really makes life exciting however often in challenge we start questioning our own ability. These thoughts can slow us down or stop us altogether on our progress forward. Clear those thoughts and knock down the wall. The lessons learnt are divine and make life grand.
Preserver and persist – you will get there! Enjoy my thought and this show. Peace, passion and purpose.
