Napoleon Hill – who wrote “Think and Grow Rich” (a book sold in about 20 million copies until Hill’s death) says that what changed his whole life perception, was the explanation of business man, Andrew Carengie, who believed we all come into this world with the ability to control our mind and steer it to whichever direction we’d like.
But we all come into this world with two sealed envelopes.
The first envelope is called the award envelope. We get it once we take control on our mind and direct it in the directions we want it to go.
The second envelope is called the fines envelope. The fines envelope contains the list of fines we get when we neglect our leadership of our mind.
It seems all of our goal is to enjoy the award envelope. Only, most of us have no idea on how to win the award envelope and then, we settle for a few moments of grace every so often, each with their different frequency.
Training our mind means rising our consciousness levels and get to know the way we think, what we decide to focus on, and what is the meaning we choose to give things that happen to us, because we have no real control on external events and we have (almost) absolute control on the meaning we give things and what to do about them.

We each have our reasons as to why we neglect the training of our mind, some has to do with lack of awareness that this is what will bring us the desired result, some has to do with our habits and some has to do with the fear of effort, only in reality we already do lots of effort in places, that won’t necessarily bring us the desired outcome.
So maybe it’s worth it to stop and acquire the right tools to win the award envelope?
