THINK BIG AND START SMALL 2

Last week in the first part of Think Big and Start Small, I told you that God is a big thinker and that although God can do big things that are beyond us, our thoughts can limit him. I hope you were able to think big thoughts between that time and now, and hope you wrote them down. Don’t forget that this series is Think Big and Start Small. Don’t just Think Big, Start Something

So, today I’m going to be sharing with you the reasons why people think Small, why their life goals look small even though they are capable of doing great things.

Below are the following reasons why people think small:

1.     Selfishness/self- centered thinking kills.

When all your thoughts centers on you, you can never think big and beyond you. When you think Big, it’s never just about you. When you begin to think big, God opens your thoughts to all he can use you to accomplish for him.

2.     Fear of failure (Atychiphobia)

Many of us have experienced this at one time or the other. Fear of Failure is immobilizing which causes you to do nothing. Fear of Failure will not allow you to venture into anything because the first thing that will come to your mind is Failure about something you’ve not even tried out.

3.     Lack of confidence.

This is distrust in yourself that you can do anything meaningful. Lack of Confidence makes you think small because it makes you believe that you can’t achieve anything.

4.     Lack of imagination and exposure.

Imagination is the creative ability to form images, ideas and sensations in the mind without direct input from the senses .Exposure is defined as an act of subjecting or an instance of being subjected to an action or an influence. Exposure can mean Revelation. Imagination and Exposure are very important ingredients because they open your eyes to all the possibilities that can happen through you.

5.     Lack of inspiration.

Inspiration is any force or influence that makes someone want to do something or anything creative. According to Physics, Force can cause an object with mass to change its velocity which includes to begin moving from a state of Rest.  When an Individual lacks this Force, nothing is going to move in his/her life.

Next week, I will continue with you on the reasons why people think small and also How to think big.

I pray for you that even as you continue in this week, God will begin to bring to your Spirit Thoughts that are bigger than you that only He can achieve through you in this life. I also pray for you that every veil that has covered your eyes making you see little or nothing about all that God wants to do through you be removed in Jesus name.

Enjoy your day!
