My husband and I really enjoy our new church. As we were sitting in church last Sunday, listening to Pastor Russ give his message, he said something that really hit home for me. He said, “There is something really powerful in a made-up mind.”

Read it again, “There is something really powerful in a made-up mind.” Think about that!

Everyone has had that time in their lives when they have had enough of the way things are, had enough of their current situation, and have made up their mind that something needs to change. Once you have made up your mind to do something, you have made a decision to make it a reality. Once you have made up your mind, you are inspired and excited. Do you remember that feeling? Use that feeling, that decision, that inspiration and that excitement to take action!

If you want to start your own business, make up your mind to make it happen. If you want to grow your business, make up your mind to make it happen. If you want to release weight, make up your mind to make it happen. Whatever change you need to see, make up your mind to make it happen. No matter what, make up your mind to make it happen.

It doesn’t matter what your current situation is, there is always something that you can do to change it into something better. What do you want? Make up your mind… make the decision to make it happen. Once you make the decision and focus on what the outcome will be, as Ralph Waldo Emerson says, “Once you make a decision, the universe conspires to make it happen”.

You are always one decision away from a totally different life.
