Remember the story about finding the perfect place to live?  My thoughts shaped my destiny. I’m convinced of that because it all unfolded almost as perfectly as I imagined. (almost is good enough for me because it helps me trust another one of my favourite mantras “Everything works out more perfectly than I could imagine”.)

I explain the science behind this in my new book, Sandbox Strategies for the New Workplace: Conflict Resolution from the Inside Out and how Einstein demonstrated that energy and matter were one and the same, and completely interchangeable. This began the exploration of what we know today as quantum physics.

“Energy responds to the mind of the observer and becomes matter…
Therefore, thoughts become things.”

The quantum field contains the potential for your idealized self to become your experience. Basically, to change our lives, we must change the way we think, act, and feel, and be greater than our current circumstances and environment. We create immense power when our minds and bodies are working together, with intentions, behaviours, and actions. We have the potential to change our personal reality (personality) and create the life we desire. It’s law.

We have a typical thought pattern to react, blame, and give our power away.
But why do we react with blame and leave the results in the hands of other people?

• Maybe it’s because we think other people have the key to our success.
• Maybe we lack worthiness and a sense of deserving the life we desire.
• Maybe we don’t even know what we desire because we aren’t clear in our own mind.

We can be proactive and respond in alignment with what we want in the workplace rather than pointing the blame outward at others, or policies that we don’t like, or obstacles in our way. Being influential is empowering because we CAN do something about the problems and challenges we face, which is far more productive than waiting for someone else to fix or change things. Influential thinking is like a muscle.

The more you work it, the stronger and bigger it gets.  People like influential people. Influential people get invited to bigger opportunities.  It all starts with using your thoughts to shape your destiny.
