We all say that we should take responsibilities of our action, we should accept that whatever we have or the conditions in our life are the result of the decisions taken by us or may be by someone else where we gave in despite of unwillingness that again is like your own decision which you think was imposed upon by someone else on you, however, you let them impose. However, we are not talking about self responsibility here, what we are going to discuss here is how are we creating own world and the world around us.
Our world is the manifestation of our thoughts. You create in this world what you think. If you keep thinking, you generate that thing with the existence and attract it toward you, nothing dies off..even if that thought is not prominent right now in your mind, I would not say die as it goes into your subconscious and the things which had triggered around you by generating your thought flows around in this universe and get into a weaker state and then into dormancy. However, if that thought comes into your prominent state in your mind, even in this vast Universe, that thought comes back to full life, attracting all the resources to bring that thought to reality and that is how this Universe is ever expanding and growing.
It does not matter what you wish for, what matters most is what you think, where your focus is, if your focus is toward generation, it would generate, if your focus is toward lackness, you will always lack that thing, so if you wish to change your world, change your thoughts, turn them in the positive direction. If you learn to direct your thoughts you will know, how you are creating your own world.
