Argument-Proactive Thinking

Your Thinking Affects Your Finances, and Your Life

Not only are proactively positive thoughts important to acquiring your success, but your success cannot exist without them. Consider Webster's definition of success: 'a desired or favorable outcome'. All outcomes are determined by actions, actions require decisions to act, and decisions are merely decisive thoughts. Therefore, it is easy to conclude that the thoughts that dominate your mind will dictate the actions you take, and the results you generate.

Your mind never stops forming tomorrow's reality. As estimated, a human being has over 60,000 different thoughts a day. Many of those thoughts are contemplations, hopes, wants, and fears of tomorrow. No matter the type, every future based

NFL Hall of Fame quarterback Dan Marino-considered one of the best quarterbacks to ever play football-Set 31 passing records in his career; many of those records still stand today. He is also 8th on the all-time most interceptions thrown list. It is also interesting to note that less than one in every one thousand Major League baseball players in history had finished a season above a.400 season batting average.
