If you change your outlook, you can change your outcome! So as a man thinketh, so is he!

I wake up around 4a.m. every morning, and by the time I get to my car the Steve Harvey Morning Show is starting. Well I always like to listen to the first 30 minutes of the show, mainly because that is the inspirational portion of the show where Steve gives somewhat of a testimony and plays a gospel song. Well, I thank God for Steve Harvey because there are many things that he has said that sticks with me and gets me through my days! Last week I heard him say...
"If you change your outlook, you can change your outcome!"
Basically all that means is that if you continue to think you are a failure in life, you're going to continue to be a failure. If you continue to think you're not a morning person, you will never be a morning person. If you continue to think you can never get a new job, car, house, you will never get it. If you continue to think that you can't find a good man or woman, you will always be lead to the wrong man or woman. It makes me think of Proverbs 23:7 "For as he (being a man/woman) thinketh in his heart, so is he...
If you change your outlook, you can change your outcome!
So come on people start thinking that you are the first and not the last. Start thinking that you are the head and not the tail. Start thinking that you are a lender and not a borrower. Start thinking that you are a morning person, and that you love to get up in the morning because it is another day that God has allowed you to have an oppurtunity to... change your outcome. Start thinking that God is going to send Mr. or Ms. Right your way. Start thinking that you will receive your new car, house or job. Something I've been training myself to do is to stop saying I hate anything, or saying that I don't want to be here (meaning anywhere where I'm at). I've started to train myself to say Thank God for wherever you will take me on this day. I just pray that you lead, guide and direct me when I get there.
If you change your outlook, you can change your outcome!
It makes me think of Kirk Franklin! The quicker you realize that the Storm is Over Now, the better off you will be. No more cloudy days, they're all gone away. I feel like I can make it, the storm is over now. He saved my soul, he made me whole. He's the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last. He will pick you up and turn you around, he'll place your feet on solid ground. He wont never put more on you than you can bear. So I resolve that no matter what I go through, God can bring me to it and take me through it! For I know that... The Storm Is Over Now! So again people...
If you change your outlook, you can change your outcome!
