It is what we think in response to what happens that causes how we feel.  That initial thought triggers physiological responses that trigger more thoughts and then more thoughts.  Thoughts and physiological responses can grow exponentially.  When this happens we automatically roll with the thoughts and believe we have no heart, no courage, no brain and no home.  In my own “wizard” controlled thoughts, if one person doesn’t show up for an appointment, then several aren’t going to show up; then I won’t have enough for the week; then I won’t have enough for the month; then the next thing I know I am predicting not being able to pay the mortgage and losing my house.  Really?  Our thoughts are manipulating our experiences much like the “wizard” behind the curtain.
