Mind Power Implies Will Power
Thinking is the desire to gain reality by means of ideas.
- José Ortega Y Gasset (1883-1955) Spanish writer and philosopher
Another amazing power of the mind is that it triggers our body to do what it says. That is why, with the right power of the mind, it becomes easy to achieve what we want. If we wish to ace an exam, get noticed by the professor, or lose weight in a couple of weeks, and we think that it can really happen, our mind will activate some power in our body to be responsible in making things happen – our will power.
This power is the actual process of converting our thoughts into reality. So, if we wish to ace and actually believe in acing an exam, our act of studying and preparing for such exam is caused by our will power that was triggered by the mind. Also, if we believe that the professor will notice us, our acts of preparing ourselves and perhaps reciting in class are what our mind tells us and what the will power does. Or in other cases, if we want to lose weight, our acts of engaging in different kinds of exercises and eating a well-balanced diet are due to the will power that is governed by the mind.
Below are some individual’s mind-powered attitudes towards situations that are commonly difficult in dealing with. What only lacks now is his will power in order to make these I Can’s into I Will’s.
