Imagine that you were really serious about running in a major annual marathon. How likely is it that you’d go on an all-sugar diet before the big race? The fuel you put into something determines its performance. This is why it’s so ironic that in one of the most important areas of life, we disregard this basic piece of wisdom. That area involves your mind. What you feed everything else is nothing compared to what you feed your mind.

Here’s a truth that will transform you – think excellent thoughts! What enters your mind repeatedly occupies it, shapes it, controls it, and in the end expresses itself in what you do and who you become. That’s the law of exposure. And it’s as sure as the law of gravity. Your mind will absorb and reflect whatever it’s exposed to. The events you attend, the materials you read or don’t read, the music you listen to, the images you expose yourself to, the conversations you hold, the thoughts you entertain, are all shaping your mind, and eventually your character and your destiny.

The Bible says, “if anything is excellent or praiseworthy think on such things.”
