  We will begin with the story of a businessman who was once asked a question. He was asked, “What is the best contract or business deal you ever you ever saw in your life?” The man gave a very interesting answer. He said, the best contract I ever saw in my life is the one that I lost. As expected, the people listening to him were shocked and very surprised. The man continued assertively, “yes the best business deal I ever saw in my life is the one that I lost.” You know why, “It was from that deal that I learnt what works and what does not work.” “It was from that deal that I learnt the principles that works and the principles that won’t work.” “It was from that deal that I learnt what makes for failure and makes for success in my business.” The vital lesson that we can learn from this story is that he did not become a thermometer reflecting the temperature of the failure around him.

In the year 1782, the United States of America actually chose the eagle as its national bird.  This shows how much the eagle has been held in such a high esteem. The million dollar question really is what is the lesson we could derive from the experience of the eagle? Well the message may be shocking but it is

YOUR BELIEF SYSTEM MAKES YOU (PART ONE)

 YOUR BELIEF SYSTEM MAKES YOU (PART ONE) “The law of belief is operating in all religions of the world and it is the reason why they are psychologically true. The Buddhist, the Christian, the Moslem and the Hebrew, all may get answers to their prayers not just because of their particular creed, religious affiliation, ritual, ceremony, formula, liturgy, incantation, sacrifice or offerings, but solely because of their belief or mental acceptance and receptivity about that for which they pray. The law of the mind is the law of belief, and belief could be summed up briefly as a thought in your mind. As a man thinks, feels and believes, so is the condition of his mind, body and circumstances.” Quote from Dr. Joseph Murphy, in his book, “The Power of Your Subconscious Mind” Page Dear friend, the way you habitually think creates your destiny. God is resident in you. Your thought power opens up your communion with God. Your thoughts and heart are crucial in opening up your communion with God a
