It is not easy to figure out what and how you think.In Philippians 4:8, God gave some examples of things to think about. The Bible tells us to “think about the things that are good, worthy of praise, true, pure, honorable, right, beautiful, and respected. Joyce Meyer goes on to say that if we do that, then the God who gives peace will be with us.
When it comes to making choices, it is helpful to understand why you choose what you do. Those choices come from how you think.
“Think about the things that are good and worthy of praise. Think about the things that are true and honorable and right and pure and beautiful and respected.” ~ Philippians 4:8
Everyone contributes to the process that determines how you think today. Your thoughts can get bombarded from the outside. Your thoughts can get influenced by friends. However, when you take the Bible’s advice and look within yourself to discover what is right, it may mean disagreeing with your friends and choosing to stop being friends for a while.
Doing this would be you thinking in a new way, looking at what is right for you. Thinking that way helps you know what God wants for you, and this enables you to choose a way that will be good and pleasing to Him.
The good news is you can create tools that will be useful in getting your mind straight.
1. Read your Bible.
Romans 12:2: It says, “Do not change yourselves to be like the people of this world, but be changed within by a new way of thinking. Then you will be able to decide what God wants for you; you will know what is right and pleasing to him and what is perfect.
When you make choices of any kind, they come from how you think!
2. Do not follow the crowd.
Do not just choose because everyone else has. Note, not agreeing with your friends when they aren’t making a good choice is okay. Be yourself!
3. Do not let strange teachings lead you astray.
God’s grace should strengthen your heart. In other words, there are answers within you. God has given you what you need.
Did you know? You've got a pretty full toolbox in the bible. If you carry it with you wherever you go, it will help you think straight. It will help you out on the battlefield — in the schoolyard, in the classroom, and at the party at your friend's house

Headway is the answer! No longer accumulating books I never read. With Headway, I initially chose the areas important to me such as productivity, time management, etc., and each day I'm provided several book summaries from which I devote 20 minutes or more each day reading. All of this on my phone! My life has improved with Headway. Truly my most useful app.

An excellent concept, executed well. Headway can help you retain what you've read while introducing you to the essential core of new information. It's an easier way to stay inspired, and to be reminded of the mental tools you've learned

In today’s world, we rarely have time. Between our jobs, our families are social obligations, when do we have time to grow and develop ourselves? Headway is an excellent app that gives you that time it gives you those little snippets of information that you need to direct your focus in on your life. Headway gives you a chance to find out the meat of a book that you might want to purchase and read or listen to in-depth without wasting a lot of time trying to figure out is this book for me? I highly recommend the app.

I've gotten multiple books out of the library with the intent to read them, but always have a hard time finding the time. This app has helped me finally be able to get to them. Summarized, yes, and thank goodness too! Just short enough I can finish one on my way picking kids up from school/practice, or while I'm cooking dinner. I can't wait to listen to them over the summer when we visit the beach!

It amazed me! There is the possibility to highlight the most important points of each book and instantly translate unfamiliar vocabulary. With the ability to review the searched words. It's a great way to learn more about English as well. The price is great.

I’m enjoying what I’m learning on headway.each summary comes with quotes at the end which you can save to help you remember key points. You can listen or read, I’ve found that reading puts me to sleep before I can finish but the listening feature keeps me engaged and I can finish in a brief amount of time if not one session.

Exactly what I need! I always have booklist to read, but can't committed enough to finish/start bc of too much pages. Headway is really helpful and concise with their summary. What I love the most is that the essence of the book is well crafted, so I don't only read the key points, but also there's the story and how personality of the author still well shown through the summary. Well done!
