A POSITIVE APPROACH TOWARDS LIFE CAN GET YOU THE DESIRED OUTCOMES

Once, a thief was fleeing after robbing a house in a wealthy locality. Huffing and puffing, he stopped by a tree to catch his breath. “I’ve been running for hours,” the thief thought. “All I wish for now is a delicious meal here.” Little did he know that the tree he was standing under was a ‘wishing tree’. And… boom! A dozen dishes appeared before him. The thief satiated his hunger and thought to himself, “I’ve never had such a wonderful meal. Now I want to have some rest. Wish I could have a comfortable bed to sleep on.” Boom! He found himself lying in a cosy bed.

After a few hours of sleep, he finally woke up. Still not realising the magical powers of the tree, the thief thought to himself, “I’ve been asleep for quite a while now... what if the police come here looking for me and kill me.” Boom! This thought, too, was immediately turned into reality!

The thief’s story is a reflection of how we are unaware of the potential of our own thoughts. Our mind is a ‘wishing tree’, which can unlock prosperity as well as misery, depending upon the thoughts we choose. When we have a positive approach towards life, it manifests into a positive reality. But when we constantly whine and complain about everything, we get stuck in the vicious circle of negative thoughts, which lead to negative outcomes. What we get from our wishing tree is completely up to us.
