The Implications of Thoughts

As I was preparing my coffee just a minute ago I had a realization: thoughts have consequences.

Everyone can identify with the idea that actions have consequences, but thoughts? Yes, I believe so.

Implementing this, effectively, does require a high level of awareness. We spend so much time with, and in, our thoughts that we ought to enjoy both the experience, as well as the results, of our thoughts.

If you don’t agree that our thoughts have results then this post isn’t for you. If you do though, ask yourself “What are the implications of my thoughts?” Make better choices about which thoughts you hold and repeat, and you will have better implications.
