Harv Eker, teaches “Nothing has meaning except for the meaning we give it.” On the surface this seems so simply, and it is….but it’s not easy to truly understand.

Think about this…there is no happiness, confidence or misery in the world. All these are emotions and meanings the WE project onto a situation. Don’t believe me? Try this, look in pockets or purse for happiness, did you find any? Or take a look in the cracks of the sofa for some confidence, find any? No…maybe you found a few quarters, but no confidence.

As difficult as this concept may be to grasp, the understanding of it is critical to live a life of self-control. It takes discipline and mental strength to TRULY understand that nothing has meaning except for the meaning you give it. If this seems is difficult to accept, and yet at some level you do understand it repeat this phrase several times a day for the next week.

“Nothing has meaning except for the meaning I give it”

Once you accept as this a true, it will mean that YOU will now be in control of your thoughts, and your thoughts will dictate your feelings. All meanings and emotions reside in our “inner world”, the world of beliefs, thoughts and feelings.

The “outer world” is the world of situations, experiences and the gross material. It is your inner world that creates meaning for your outer world. When you come to master this you will be in complete control of your own experiences, results and future.

I’d like to leave you this little twist…nothing has meaning except for the meaning you give it…especially your life!
