One of my favorite authors is John C. Maxwell. In his book Thinking for a Change, these are his chapter titles:
Understand the Value of Good Thinking
Realize the Impact of Changed Thinking
Master the Process of Intentional Thinking
Acquire the Wisdom of Big-Picture Thinking
Unleash the Potential of Focused Thinking
Discover the Joy of Creative Thinking
Recognize the Importance of Realistic Thinking
Release the Power of Strategic Thinking
Feel the Energy of Possibility Thinking
Embrace the Lessons of Reflective Thinking
Question the Acceptance of Popular Thinking
Encourage the Participation of Shared Thinking
What a gift God has given us in our minds, our ability to think!
I have always loved these words from Paul’s letter to the Romans:
Don’t copy the behavior and customs of this world, but let God transform you into a new person by changing the way you think. Then you will learn to know God’s will for you, which is good and pleasing and perfect.
Enjoy this year as you read and reflect and change yourself, and influence others.
