The Power of Positive Thinking

Positive attitude brings pleasant feelings that would create focus of mind, energy and happiness. It develops a holistic benefit in our mind, body and soul. It magnetizes goodwill, happiness, health and success in our being. Our body shows these through the way we walk and talk with confidence.

Positive attitude does not happen overnight. It should become your lifestyle. We need to focus our mind to positivity. To do these, some inner practice should be done regularly.

First, fill your cups about the concept of positive thinking and convince yourself to try it. Our mind is powerful. It persuades our body to react to it. This process might be subconscious in nature but its effect becomes conscious.

Second, be deaf on what other people think or say about your sudden change of attitude. Most of them will discourage you.

They may even laugh at you. Be vigilant.

Third, visualize only the good and beneficial situations. I am not saying that you ignore what went wrong in the situation, but to find ways on making that wrong to be f avor abl e.

Fourth, use positive words in your inner thoughts.

As Lao Tzu would say and I quote,

“Watch your thoughts, they become words.

Watch your words, they become your actions.

Watch your actions, they become habits.

Watch your habits, they become character.

Watch your character, it becomes your destiny”

What we feed our minds will reflect our actions.

Lastly, smile more often. Smile even if other people think negatively about you. Smile even if you are in the worst situation. Smile on every circumstance that comes your way. Smiling is the first dose to positive thinking.

Always remember that whatever your circumstances at the moment might not be that important in the future. If you think positively, expect only favorable results, and your situation will change accordingly.

Persevere to transform the way your mind thinks and savor the effects of the power of positive thinking.
