Jack Knight Songwriting Academy

Where your word's become art, and your thought's become music

JACK KNIGHT "THOUGHTS ARE THINGS" WHATS YOUR OPINION

SOMETIMES WHEN YOUR IN NEGATIVE OR DRAINING RELATIONSHIPS OR WHEN YOUR SURROUNDED BY DYSFUNCTIONAL SITUATIONS YOUR ONLY OUTLET MAY BE YOUR DREAMS, YOUR IMAGIN-NATION, OR YOUR LIFE GOALS. WELL I HERE TO TELL YOU THAT CONSTANT VISUALIZATION, HARD WORK, AND PERSISTENCE IS THE FORMULA FOR MAKING YOUR HOPES AND DREAMS A REALITY. ITS THE FORMULA FOR MAKING WHAT YOUR THINKING BECOME REALITY IN THE PHYSICAL WORLD NOT JUST IN YOUR MIND.

I KNOW ME AND YOU BOTH HAVE HEARD ABOUT OR READ NUMEROUS BOOKS ON WHAT THE MIND CAN ACCOMPLISH. I'M LIVING PROOF OF THIS AS I WRITE THIS BLOG SITTING IN A BEAUTIFUL FLAT IN LONDON A PLACE THAT I SAID I WOULD LOVE TO FREQUENT THIS YEAR BECAUSE OF THE MONEY VALUE (POUNDS) AND THE ARRAY OF TALENT TO CHANNEL MY GIFT OF SONGWRITING AND MUSIC PRODUCTION. I JUST FEEL SO BLESSED TO KNOW THAT EACH TIME I'AM CONFRONTED WITH A PERSONAL OR FINANCIAL OBSTACLE I THEN GO INTO THE LABORATORY OF MY MIND AND WITH TIME, HARDWORK, AND FOCUS I MANAGE TO COME OUT EACH AND EVERY TIME. 

SOMETIMES IT STARTS OF WITH SMALL LEVELS OF ACCOMPLISHMENTS OF MY GOALS, THEN THE MASTER PLAN BEGANS TO UNFOLD IN FRONT OF MY EYES. I REMEMBER I SAID A FEW MONTHS BACK I WANTED TO GO TO HAWAII ONE DAY THEN ALL OF A SUDDEN I GOT AN ALL EXPENSE PAID TRIP TO HAWAII THAT FOLLOWING MONTH TO DO SOME MUSIC PRODUCTION AND SONGWRITING WORK. 

I REMEMBER SAYING I WANT TO STAY IN THE TIME HOTEL IN N.Y AS OPPOSED TO STAYING ALL THE TIME WITH RELATIVES AND THE NEXT WEEK I GOT A WEEKS STAY AT THE TIME HOTEL WHEN SOMEONE BOOKED ME FOR SOME WRITING SESSIONS. 

I REMEMBER SAYING I WANTED A PARTNER IN LIFE WHO DIDNT DRAIN ME EMOTIONALLY, AND FINANCIALLY AND I FOUND SOMEONE WHO IN FACT HAD AS MUCH MONEY AS ME AND ALSO TAUGHT ME HOW TO GET IN CONTACT WITH MY INNER EMOTIONS EVEN MORE AND MY HEALTH.

I COULD GO ON AND ON WITH SMALL TO LARGE SCALE THINGS THAT HAVE HAPPENED AND ARE HAPPENING AS I WRITE THIS BLOG. WELL I'M ON MY WAY TO PARIS FOR A DAY, AND I FEEL SO BLESSED AND LUCKY, BUT OVERALL I KNOW MY "THOUGHTS ARE THINGS" SO WHAT ARE YOU THINKING??

Like Napoleon Hill said: You can be anything you want to be, if you believe with sufficient conviction and act in accordance with your faith; for whatever the mind can conceive and believe, the mind can achieve....
Visualization activates the creative power of your subconscious mind, it focuses your brain by programming its reticular activating system (RAS) that were always there but were previously unnoticed. It magnetize and attracts to you the people, resources and opportunities you need to achieve your goal. Our creative subconscious can’t think in words just in pictures and as more specific the pictures are (colours, sounds, emotions we feel when we see the picture) as more it will give us what we need to bring the picture into reality. Visualization is our way to success. And as more and constant you visualize what you want in life as sooner you will achieve it. Yes “Thoughts are Things”….
To change something we need to go to action, when everybody of us would give one dollar to people they have nothing to eat they wouldn’t have to think about hunger anymore, when everybody of us would respect people for that what they are independent of their religion, skin color or other differences we wouldn’t have discrimination anymore. We can change so much when we just start to do something. We all are responsible for our world. It is not easy to find solutions for the problems we have on this world but it is still easier than to live with it. When you give love to others you will get love, when you respect others you will get respect. To live together on this world we don't have to accept each other but we should respect each other for that what we are. We can change the world for good we just have to start. I wish that more people would start taking action and doing something to make a change for the good. You have a good heart Mr. Rez and this is so good to see!!!!
Nice words...

(written by Curtis Mayfield)

Keep on pushing

I've got to keep on pushing (mmm-hmm)
I can't stop now
Move up a little higher
Some way, somehow

'Cause I've got my strength
And it don't make sense
Not to keep on pushin'

Chorus:
Hallelujah, hallelujah
Keep on pushin'

Verse 2:

Now maybe some day
I'll reach that higher goal
I know that I can make it
With just a little bit of soul
'Cause I've got my strength
And it don't make sense
Not to keep on pushin'

Verse 3:
Now look-a look (look-a look)
A-look-a yonder
What's that I see
A great big stone wall
Stands there ahead of me
But I've got my pride
And I'll move on aside
And keep on pushin'

[repeat chorus]

Coda [repeat to fade]:

Keep on pushin'
I'm thinking about doing what I love fulltime. Music is my passion. I'm envisioning myself being a millionaire. I say "I'm a millionaire" and an exercise. We can attain what we believe to be possible.

I definitely agree. I'm always thinking how I can make myself better in any situation (negative, positive, and/or in between) because if I sink under pressure, what's next or what can be next? Life is Life...I must NOT give up...even if I never reach all of my goals. I know that if I keep trying and working hard towards my goals and dreams, I will stay grounded and my life will be worthwhile. Thank God for the good times and the everyday struggles. :-)

Thank you Jack and Kincie. :-)
Jack, Kincie, I agree with you! There is no success without the process, not in buisness and not in our private life. To stay true to yourself, I have written something about it in one of my blogs because I think that we are loosing ourselves more and more, here it is....

"We are on the best way to loose our individuality and therewith ourselves. We have learnt to function in the society and give up our own opinion, our own perspective of life. We open a magazine what tells us what we should wear, eat or where we should talk about because we know when we just do what others expected we will be accepted. Our needs and what we really want are not important anymore because the rules of the society are written and it tells us day by day what we need to know. Even questions won't be answered without thinking about it because it could be given a wrong answer. Wrong answer!!! How can an answer be wrong when someone ask us about our opinion? There is no right or wrong. People say they have to find back to themselves, you don't have to look for yourself it's already there, it's inside of you, you just have to stop to change yourself over and over again to fit into the picture people have, you just have to stand by yourself. Say what you wane say, wear what you wane wear and be what you wane be, otherwise you will wake up every morning look into the mirror and don't like what you see because it's not you. You can't be honest to others because you are not honest to yourself; you can't love others because you don't love yourself. See the beauty in our differences, stop playing the game just to fit and rescue you with just being yourself!!!"
Jack Knight I feel what you have written is very true. As a matter of fact a great writer, scribe and teacher I-M-Hotep the Great out of Tama-Re (Ancient Africa) wrote that your thoughts are not your thoughts but the workings of the mind of your ancestors working through you to assist them as your DNA and RNA in reaching perfecting. I agree with this because each of us as people are the sum total of all of our experiences which would include the experiences of those from whom we have physically come and what is interesting about this is the fact that all of them wanted the best for their progeny; for which we have all often heard from our personal parents " I want the best for you, I want you to be more than I am and have more than i have ever had" well the power of the mind is such that all that you wish to see or do is stamped in your genes and will continue to be a recycled thought until it has been reached or fulfilled. So we say to all who read this keep letting the best thoughts of your blood relatives manifest in your life and keep those destructive thoughts at bay by acknowledging that they too can affect your life only if you try to pretend they don't exist.
Wow that last line really really hit me, I Don't know why???? " Dont Pretend They Don't exist" because i been trying to acknowledge my negative thoughts as part of me, of my genetic makeup and family, however trying to master the vibration they give off for the positive or agreeable thoughts and dreams has been a challenge? thats why i came to europe so i can be at peace...i tried anger managment...i tried exercise...reading...so i'm trying....blah..blah...blah..good point rev

I'm thinking...I'm well on my way to being one of the greats i.e. Quincy Jones, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis, Stargate, Timbo. With time, hard work and focus, I will get a Production/Publishing deal, get paid WELL for doing what I love...and last but NOT least, I will be receiving a Grammy! :)
