letra de we must control our thinking - akira the don

i remember one time
i was driving through arizona
and i saw one of those
giant earth-moving machines
roaring along the road
at about 35 miles an hour
with what looked like
20 tons of dirt in it
a tremendous, incredible machine
and there was a little man
perched way up on top
with the wheel in his hands
guiding it
and as i drove along
i was struck by the similarity
of that machine
to the human mind
just suppose you are sitting
at the controls
of such a vast source of energy
are you going to sit back
and fold your arms
and let it run itself into a ditch?
or are you going to keep
both hands firmly on the wheel
and control and direct this power
to a specific, worthwhile purpose?
it’s up to you
you are in the driver’s seat
we must control our thinking
we must control our thinking
it’s up to you
you are in the driver’s seat
we must control our thinking

the very law
that gives us success
is a two-edged sword
the same rule
that can lead a man
to a life of success
wealth, happiness
and all the things
he has ever dreamed of
for himself and his family
that very same law
can lead him into the gutter
it’s all in how he uses it
for good
or for bad
this is
the strangest secret
in the world
for good
or for bad
this is
the strangest secret
in the world
we must control our thinking
we must control our thinking
it’s up to you
you are in the driver’s seat
we must control our thinking

now why do i say it’s strange
and why do i call it a secret
actually, it isn’t a secret at all
it was first promulgated
by some of the earliest wise men
and it appears again and again
throughout the bible
but very few people have learned it
understand it
that’s why it’s strange
and why for some equally strange reason
it virtually remains a secret
i believe that you could go out
and walk down the main street
of your town
and ask one man after another
what the secret of success is
and you probably wouldn’t run
into one man in a month
who could tell you
now this information
is enormously valuable to us
if we really understand it
and apply it
it’s valuable to us
not only for our own lives
but the lives of those around us
our family, employees
associates, and friends
life should be an exciting adventure
it should never be a bore
a man should live fully
be alive
he should be glad
to get out of bed in the morning
he should be doing a job
he likes to do
because he does it well
we must control our thinking
we must control our thinking
it’s up to you
you are in the driver’s seat
we must control our thinking

one time
i heard grove patterson
make a speech
the editor-in-chief
of the toledo daily blade
and as he concluded his speech
he said something
that i’ve never forgotten
he said something like this
my years in the newspaper business
have convinced me of several things
among them
that people are basically good
and that we came from someplace
and we are going someplace
so we should make our time here
an exciting adventure
the architect of the universe
didn’t build a stairway
leading nowhere
and the greatest teacher of all
the carpenter from the plains of galilee
gave us the secret
time and time again

as ye believe
so shall it be done
unto you
as ye believe
so shall it be done
unto you
as ye believe
so shall it be done
unto you
as ye believe
so shall it be done
unto you
