Good productive plants however, will require continuous focus, effort, time and energy in order to achieve a good harvest. Likewise, you will never be able to stop negative thoughts from entering your mind, but you will have to learn to control and replace them. Positive thoughts on the other hand, are like good productive plants. In order for them to enter, and take root in your mind, you have to make deliberate and not stop efforts.” - Sekou Obadias – Author of “SOGANUTU” – A book of life’s Maxims”", "creator": { "@type": "Person", "name": "Sekou Obadias" }, "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/sekou-obadias/possibility-all-things-are-possible-to-those-who-believe-the/", "image": { "@type": "ImageObject", "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/986/sekou-obadias-66860_book-of-life_possibility-all-things-are-possible-to-t_166115.jpg", "contentUrl": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/986/sekou-obadias-66860_book-of-life_possibility-all-things-are-possible-to-t_166115.jpg", "url": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/i/986/sekou-obadias-66860_book-of-life_possibility-all-things-are-possible-to-t_166115.jpg", "width": 1080, "height": 1080, "caption": "“POSSIBILITY -“All things are possible to those who believe. -“The scripture declares that without hope…” — Sekou Obadias", "creditText": "SMS4Smile Quotes", "creator": { "@id": "https://sms4smile.com/quotes/#organization" } } } }, { "@type": "ListItem", "position": 2, "item": { "@type": "Quotation", "text": "“-“The greatest discovery of this generation is the knowledge that human beings can alter their lives by altering their attitude of mind” William James -“A man is the sum total of his thinking.
