There are many external things you can’t control or alter.  You can’t mold the world to your wishes.  (I know, I tried.)  But those outside things never really can prevent you from achieving a life of abundance...

Because prosperity is always created by the internal things: your desires, passions, and thoughts.  You shape the inner world of your mind and reconcile it to the outside environment. Things you can’t control still happen, but you can control how you respond to them.

You face challenges, but you don’t let anxiety overcome you.  You can be surrounded by distractions and noise, yet you maintain repose and harmony.  Even in the midst of strife and confusion, you can experience peace and poise.

This is the true power of thought.
