Hep Peeps!
So I don't know about you but I honestly believe that I was born to do something great with my life. Although I was born into mediocrity, I don't believe that I was created to stay in it. I believe that my attitude, my way of thinking, and the thoughts/behaviors/habits that have been embedded in me over the course of my life has created my current existence. I WANT TO CHANGE!
I want to change the way I live, I want to change the way I perceive things, I want to change the way I think and speak and react to my circumstances. I am litterally standing in my own way. Blocking my own blessings from manifesting.
All last week the message that I was hearing over and over again was: change your mindset! change your mindset!
Why haven't things I prayed for manifested in my life yet? Well I don't know the exact answer to that question only God knows, but one thing that was brought to my attention was that, most times when those things that are for us does not manifest is because of unbelief. We have the faith but we can also have unbelief. This message is talked about in more detail by Creflo Dollar. You can listen to the message in this four part series on YouTube:
I bought Joyce Meyer's book, Battlefield of the Mind: Winning the Battle in Your Mind a few years ago, I didn't read all of it, but I just started it again last week. She has a updated version. I'm going to buy it for my mom and brother to read.
I am determined to change my mindset and my attitude so that I can get out of my own way. So that I can focus on God's promises over my life and not my problems.
Another book that you may like is Lord, Change My Attitude: Before It's Too Late by James MacDonald.

Now if you are looking for a free book that is full of wonderful advice and something that I thought was really good and straight to the point, then check out Johnny B Truant's book, How to Be Legendary. You can find it on his website. I listen to Johnny's videos on YouTube, the Self Publishing Podcast and the Bigger Better Stronger Faster Podcast. You should check those out too. Here is his YouTube Channel.
Here is a list of some of the main points of the How to Be Legendary book...some truths we've lost track of:
- You will get old and then you will die, so there’s no point in waiting and no point in hedging your biggest bets. It’s truly now or never.
- Almost anything is possible if you’re willing to be flexible about the problem and its solution, and if you’re willing to break some conventions.
- Nobody controls you but you. Nothing anyone does to you can ruin things for you unless you allow it to.
- Everything is simple, but very little is easy. If you fail, it will be due to lack of effort and persistence, not lack of knowledge.
- Nobody is “normal,” so you should stop trying to be normal, too.
- Wanting more does not make you ungrateful for what you have. Receiving more does not take something away from someone else.
- Satisfaction often comes at the cost of some discomfort, but it is always worth it.
- You cannot fail. You can only quit.
- You already know everything you need to know to get everything you want. All that’s left is to do it.
I'm ready to live a legendary life! No more mediocrity for me homie! lol
