Your Feelings are the Fuel

Here is a simple but powerful rule:

Always give people more than what they expect to get. -- Nelson Boswell

 

Your thoughts and words have no power at all in your life without charging them with your feelings.  You think so many thoughts in the day that do not amount to anything because many of your thoughts do not elicit a strong feeling within you. 

It’s what you feel that matters.

Imagine your thoughts and words as being like a rocket ship and your feelings as the fuel.  A rocket ship is a stationary vehicle that can not do  anything without fuel, because the fuel is the power that lifts the rocket ship.  It’s the same with your thoughts and words.  Your thoughts and words are vehicles that can not do anything without your feelings, because your feelings are the power of your thoughts and words!  Something to ponder over I think.

 

• If you think, “I can’t stand my boss” that thought is expressing a strong negative feeling you have about your boss, you are giving out that negative feeling, noticeable or not you do it without any thought but one of distaste!! and your relationship with your boss will continue to get worse, unnoticeable may be at first but it will happen, be warned!!
• If you think, “I work with some fabulous people in my job” those words are expressing the positive feeling you have about people you work with and you are giving out that positive feeling.  As a consequence, your relationships with your work colleagues will continue to grow.

 
“The emotions must be called upon to give feeling to the thought so it will take form” Charles Haanel
