Thoughts & Actions

ByMatthew

By thought, the thing you want is brought to you. By action, you receive it. – Wallace Wattles

I would tweak Wattles’ language to the following:

By thought, the thing you want is brought close to you. By acting you bring it into your life.

Maybe that’s what Wattles meant, and we’re (or just me . . . .) limited in not understanding the language he used back then.

Regardless, the truth for us here is our thoughts create our possibilities and our actions create our realities.

Want something in your life?

You must think the thoughts and do the actions required.

It’s no secret.
