The mind of a man resembles a garden, what you put into it is what you get, if you sow good seeds in your garden when it is time for harvest you will most likely reap good fruits except maybe it is not properly nurtured. This is similar to how the mind of a man works, the seed in this instance is our thoughts, the thoughts we sow into our mind determines what our mind will bring forth and our actions. If you allow corrupt thoughts to flourish in your mind it will surely reflect in the life you live vice versa.
We must tend to the garden of our mind the way a good gardener tends to his garden, growing his flowers with care and always clearing out weeds. We should always clear out wrong, impure and unjust thoughts from our mind, nourish your mind and it will flourish like roses in a garden. If you do all these sooner or later you will discover than you are the master gardener of your soul.
Philippians 4:8
Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable—if anything is excellent or praiseworthy—think about such things.
However for you to have good thoughts you have to surround yourself with the right people and place yourself in a good environment. Hear no evil, see no evil, speak no evil. The only thing that is slightly possible her is speak no evil because to some large extent we can control what comes out from our mouth but we can’t really control what we see or hear. When you keep bad company nothing good can come out of it although the term bad company is relative because what I consider bad company might be good company to others. You know the kind of life you want to and ought to live as a Christian so if there are people steering you away from that path then those people are the wrong people to be around. They will always sow thoughts of negativities and such thoughts are not good for the mind.
proverbs 23:7
For as he thinketh in his heart, so is he: Eat and drink, saith he to thee; but his heart is not with thee.
All your actions are results of your thoughts, we often refer to geniuses and successful people as great minds and that is because we have been able to see the result of the positive thoughts that they sow in their mind.
