TOPIC: The importance of good thinking (1)
‘For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.’
Proverbs 23:7 NKJV
Good thinkers are constantly in demand. Why? Because they solve problems, always have ideas that can build an organisation, and are hopeful for a better future. And good thinkers seldom find themselves under the control of bad thinkers. Adolf Hitler once boasted, ‘What luck for rulers that men do not think.’ Those who build the technique of good thinking can manage themselves – even when under an unfair ruler or in other challenging circumstances. In summary, good thinkers are successful.
Dr John Maxwell writes: ‘I’ve studied successful people for forty years, and though the diversity you find among them is astounding, I’ve found that they are all alike in one way: how they think! That is the one thing that separates successful people from unsuccessful ones. And here’s the good news. How successful people think can be learned. If you can change your thinking, you can change your life!’
The Bible puts it succinctly: ‘For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.’ That means you will never climb higher in life until you are ready to change your thinking. But if you change the way you think, you can change your life! It’s hard to exaggerate the value of changing your thinking. Good thinking can do several things for you, including generating opportunities, resolving problems, and producing revenue. It can lead you to an entirely new level, both professionally and personally.
Paul writes, ‘Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise…Then the God of peace will be with you’ (Philippians 4:8-9 NLT). Do you want to change your life? The first step is to change how you think.
