Those of you who have been following our blog know that we, at Academics Plus Tutoring, are big proponents of “thinking success thoughts,” and that we believe it is important to engage in self-talk that is personally supportive and empowering.
We often tell our students that “How you think can be just as important as what you know.“
We know from experience that students who think they will succeed are much more likely to succeed and that “thinking success” increases the chances of achieving success! We encourage our students to take inventory of their own self talk and ask them to monitor their thoughts. We ask them to determine whether they are more likely to say things like: I am capable of doing anything I put my mind to. I improve my SAT skills every day. I am mindful of my advances. Or if they are more likely to say things like: I will never get this. Why bother trying? I’ll never understand. Everybody else is smarter than I am.
Jack Canfield is a big proponent of thinking success thoughts as well and today, we’d like to post an excerpt from an article he wrote titled “Jack Canfield’s Key to Living the Law of Attraction.” If you would like the entire article, feel free to send us an email titled Jack Canfield and we will be happy to email you the article in its entirety.

Thoughts are things.
Your thoughts are not just wispy little clouds drifting through your head. Your thoughts are *things.* They are actually *measurable units of energy.*
Thoughts are biochemical electrical impulses. They are waves of energy that, as far as we can tell, penetrate all time and space. Thought is action in rehearsal. — Sigmund Freud
Your thoughts are powerful. They are real, they are measurable, they are energy.
