SHARPEN THE MIND: THE REAL BATTLEFIELD











Grand Rising Fiveamprayer Family! Happy Day 2! If two touch in agree on anything it shall be done! Iron Sharpens iron! Your mind is a weapon and if you don’t sharpen it, life will do it for you. The news will do it. The distractions will do it! friends without vision will do it and before you know it, you’ll be fighting battles with a blunt blade tired confused, stuck with blade that cannot cut through delay. It cannot cuts through fear. It cannot cuts through excuses it even cannot cuts through people who were sent to waste your time! they start backing away from a focused mind. Not because you shouted, but because they feel the weight of your discipline I want to challenge you today. Don’t just live by instinct train your thoughts educate your emotions. Because the strongest mind in the room will always win even in silence. Let me give you a truth. I learned early when your mind is sharp your mouth doesn’t need to be loud. Your actions don’t need to beg for attention. Your presence alone makes people rethink how they move around you so sharpen it, sharpen your mind until it becomes quiet power, sharpen it until you walk into rooms and people straightened up without knowing why sharpen it until you stop chasing validation because purpose starts to chase you your environment may not change overnight, but your mind can and when your mind changes you stop reacting and you start creating remember weak minds copy! average minds compete! but a train mind creates and creation will always outlast competition so here’s my question. Are you sharpening your mind daily or are you letting life do the thinking for you because in this world they don’t fear your smile they fear your clarity. The mind is your battlefield not your job not your relationship not your environment. Everything you experience in life is filtered through the thought. Thought you allowed to grow. If you lose the war in your mind, you will lose it everywhere else if you win it in your mind, life will begin to align in ways that seem almost supernatural but it’s not magic. It’s mindset!! you see most people think life is about reacting to circumstances. Something happens they react! someone offend them they react. Something doesn’t go their way they react, but what they don’t realize is that every reaction is a decision made in the mind and the quality of your decisions comes from the strength of your mindset! the real war begins when the alarm goes off in the morning when you hit snooze and delay your purpose or will you rise and take control of the day most people hit snooze because their mind has already lost. It whispers just a few more minutes you’re tired you can start tomorrow and they obey that voice without questioning who is actually speaking! when a sharpen mind speaks back! it says no today matters! I move even when I don’t feel like it because I’m not led by emotion. I’m led by vision! think about a soldier before he steps onto a physical battlefield he trained endlessly in his mind! every movement! every response! every strategy rehearsed! because in battle hesitation is death. The same is true in life if your mind is not prepared, you will hesitate when opportunity knocks. You will overthink when you should act you will run when you should rise the reason some people always seem to be ahead isn’t because they’re lucky it’s because they win battles. No one ever sees the internal wars to fight against laziness, the resistance to self-doubt the quiet war against fear that tries to whisper you’re not good enough, but the answer back not with emotion, but with discipline, they’ve trained their minds to fight back you can look at two people with the same skill, same background same opportunities one will rise. The other will fold because one prepared their mind and the other didn’t the real difference isn’t what’s in their hands. It’s what’s in the head.
