Everybody in this world thinks they think, but honestly, that’s quite far from the truth. Before I get into this deeper first, I want to start by wishing Sony PlayStation a very happy birthday for this month–Happy Birthday to Sony PlayStation! Why am I bringing that into this article? Well, It’s the Gadget that pretty much every child wants today, it’s on the list. Whether it’s the child within you or the child that you are a parent to. It’s evolved over time but it’s always on the must-have Christmas toys list every year without fail.
The gaming industry over the last 3 years is booming and is a multi-billion-dollar industry. Just in 2021, the Global Games Market had a whopping $180BN in revenue. The market's worth is predicted to reach $435 billion by 2028
In fact, Gaming is bigger than Hollywood and the music industry combined. Top games are earning more than the big blockbusters, and of course, PlayStation plays a huge part in this being the biggest gaming platform.
Now, if you ask most children these days what they want to be when they grow up the answer is “I want to be a gamer”
What’s My Point?
My whole point in all of this is simple, it all starts off with thinking. The PlayStation started off in somebody’s mind, it was created there first and then it became a thing and then a global phenomenon. Thinking is the highest form of creation and I believe that thinking is the new doing. When we think properly, I mean really thinking we create ideas, and our body is moved into taking positive action. And of course, subsequently, if we think incorrectly our body moves us into taking negative action.
It’s an idea in your mind, a thought about creating something, doing something, being something, having something and then building on that idea. My question to you is What do you want? Like what do you REALLY, REALLY, REALLY Want? It really is a simple question but not an easy question for most people to answer. Why? Because they have never given it any thought. The thinking has never happened!
Let me ask you, Are you happy with your work? Are you where you want to be in your finances? Are you earning what you want to earn? Are you living how you want to live? Or are you just conforming to mediocrity and what we are being fed by the media, and the world leaders as a whole?
I’ll give you an example… This morning I was at the dry cleaners to drop a couple of winter coats off since it’s getting cold here in England and I got chatting with the owner of the dry cleaners. I asked her for a leaflet for what they dry-clean etc, and she was telling me oh the current climate is so, we don’t have leaflets, everything is so expensive.
In the 10 minutes I was there she must have repeated “everything is so expensive” about 6 times. Now, that might be so, and that might be what’s going on in the current climate, but if you keep repeating the same statement do you think your current climate is going to change? If you keep speaking the same negative words guess what, your subconscious is going to accept it and that’s what will play out in your life too.
Our thoughts Become Things.
That was her inner dialogue and that’s what she kept repeating, so, unfortunately, she will create more of the same until she changes her inner dialogue. Our words have power, especially when you speak to them with an energy of fear and conviction.
Andrew Carnegie said – “ANY idea that is held in the mind, that is emphasised, that is either feared or revered, will begin at once to clothe itself in the most convenient and appropriate form available”
Now, you might ask Why that is so?
Well, it’s because if you understand how the mind works, our conscious mind is inductive it can accept and reject information. Our subconscious mind is totally deductive, meaning it can only accept it has no ability to reject thoughts or ideas. Even though your conscious mind is the part that thinks, your subconscious mind is the most magnificent part of you. It functions in every cell of your body.
Let’s suppose you’re watching or listening to the news.
And this is what’s happening now in the media globally, “The forecast for the next year is we’re going to sink into a recession. The market is going down. Unemployment is going up. Be careful. Watch everything you’re doing.”
If you’re using the reasoning mind (conscious mind) correctly, you will reject that idea and decide you’re not going to participate in the recession.
Using reason correctly is thinking instead of reacting. It’s choosing the ideas you want to build on in your life instead of allowing other people or circumstances to control your thoughts.
So, speak words of what you want, rather than what you don’t want. Think of what you REALLY want and don’t give any thought to why it cannot be done. You are powerful and your words are of power, choose your words and thoughts carefully because they have the power of becoming your reality, in fact, they are becoming your reality every day, that’s what manifestation is. Hence the old age saying, “be careful of what you ask for because it might come true”
When you think you do, which is why I say Thinking is The New Doing and I’ll go a step further by saying The Correct Use of Thinking is The New Doing!
Most people never think at all, we’ve been given the equipment all we have to do is use it properly!
