The most certain way to succeed is always to try just one more time.” – Thomas A. Edison  Excerpt Are you ready to take control of your life and guide it in a positive direction? If you are exhausted by conversations about how poor the economy is, how the job market is tanking and there is no hope, then this book will inspire you to take control of your thoughts and experience life with new light and joy in new ways. I wrote this book out of a sense of obligation to share what I've discovered. I have been through some life experiences that forced me into learning how to stay positive day in and day out. Before I developed these steps and applied them to my life, I was downward spiral, somewhat depressed and sad. I felt as if I had no direction and I lived in almost a constant state of fear. I could not even enjoy a vacation without thoughts of fear taking hold of my every moment. This behavior had to be overcome, so I set out on a path to learn how to change my thinking. I developed a system with which I was able to reclaim my mind and direct my thoughts. Through the pages of this book, you will discover the power and depth that your thoughts have and how much they control your reality. You will discover techniques that I personally use to keep positive thoughts coming into my mind while eliminating (for the most part) negative thoughts. You will learn how the remainder of the negativity that cannot be eliminated will be used to fuel your direction and passions. The mind is similar to a big yellow sponge. While it can hold a considerable amount of information, like the sponge, it is limited in its capacity. The mind, like the sponge, can only put out what it takes in, and thus we have to be sure to soak up positive thinking in order to produce the positive results. If we continuously pump negative information (dirty water) into our minds, what kind of thinking life will we have? It’s been said, “If you are not moving forward, you are moving backwards.” This quote was the inspiration for the title of this book. Our life has direction whether we acknowledge it or not. The direction in which we are traveling is determined by our thoughts and where we want to go. Without a clear understanding of where you want to take your life, your direction can change from moment to moment. Instead of being reactive to life as it comes at you, this book will assist you in being able to be proactive. With a clear, precise understanding of thoughts and the role they play you will be able to direct your life in a forward direction. When you are the driver, you control the vehicle; when you are the driver of your mind, you control your life. I hope the tools in this book are useful to you and I appreciate you reading it.
