You Are What You Eat And Say!

Have you ever heard the saying, you are what you eat? This saying is so true, but often looked upon from a health conscious view. Truly what we put in our bodies will manifest itself in several different ways. It could enhance or deplete energy. It can cause weight loss or gain. It can clear up or block passage ways, etc. However, I have begun to think about that saying more in depth. The bible tells us that as a man thinketh so is he. Which pretty much says the same thing. Whatever you allow your mind to eat and take in, you will believe and become. Whatever we say becomes truth. There are so many scriptures about guarding the tongue and the tongue being a two edged sword, and speaking those things that be not as though they were, etc. It is my belief that this is the foundational basis of many of your modern life coaches, motivational speakers, and even psychologist whether they recognize it or not. We are taught at an early age to speak positively and think positively. Many will go as far as saying that you should look in the mirror and recite affirmations and declare success. We are told to make sticky notes and put them all around our daily paths as reminders of what we are to keep our minds on. Therefore, what we think and say, what we "eat" with our eyes and minds, will determine our level of success and achievement. If we don't believe that we can make it or that we are capable of pulling off the next goal, we will fail every time. We have to become our dreams and aspirations. They have to manifest themselves in us first. Not just the dreams of one day being super rich or owning a business, but even simple things such as weight loss, parenting, reading that book we've been waiting to read, or yes, even.....writing a blog! lol When we have conceived who we are in our minds nothing and no one can deter our birthing of that ideal. So whatever your dream or goal may be; However big or small it is; I leave you with a few lines of one of my favorite movies, SOUND OF MUSIC, "Climb every mountain, Ford every stream, Follow every rainbow, Till you find your dream" Bon Appetit!
