POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING – BY DAVID IBIYEOMIE
Your success starts with your thought. Scientists analyzed the brain of Albert Einstein, a great physicist who formulated the theory of relativity, and found out that he made use of only 10% of his thinking capacity. This means that many people who feel they are thinking have actually made use of less than 1% of their brains. God created everyone with the ability to think.
Isaiah 1:18a – Come now, and let ...
