Can Anyone Develop The Power of Positive Thinking?

By Andrew I. Moore


Many people consider the power of positive thinking as utter nonsense. They don't take it seriously. They scoff at people who believe it because they either don't know what they meant, or they don't consider them effective.However, those who accept it do not know how to use it to get the desired results. Then again, this subject is gaining popularity as manifested by the many courses, lectures, and books about it.

One of the most powerful weapons one can have is the "positive thinking". Positive thinking brings inner peace, satisfaction, success, improved relationships, happiness, and better health. It also helps to move smoothly in day-today affairs, and makes life bright and promising. Positive and negative thinking are contagious. People with positive thinking are more likely to be helped rather than people who are negative.

There are several ways to cultivate a positive mindset and some of them are discussed in this article.We should learn how to overcome negative thoughts because irregardless of everything negative things will happen to us and thing that only matters it`s how we handle these situations.

Action is the result of the thought process and if the thoughts are negative, the outcome will definitely be negative. Research has shown that anxiety, anger, and stress do a lot of damage to the body, shortens the life span, disturbs internal system, immune system, and other vital organs. On the other hand, people who are optimistic are more likely to stay healthier and recover faster from any illnesses they undergo. We have heard so many stories about cancer patients who survived and have conquered this deadly disease, simply because they managed to keep up their hope and spirits.

Take a deep breath.Try a calming centered activity like tai chi, yoga, or playing a musical instrument.Cut back on alcohol and smoking.Communicate your needs and be assertive.Reflect on people and things that bring you joy.Have you done something to bring the power of positive thinking into your life? All of us at some point in our lives have spent far too much time dwelling on negative thoughts, unaware that we are often reinforcing fear and worry in our mind, when we really don't need it. Unless we take control, these effects can snowball into a downward spiral creating problems in other areas of our life, not only where the initial worry started. Constantly reliving old negative experiences does not help you focus and move on to an exciting future. Stop thinking too much, stop analysing everything and stop being hard on yourself!

Do You want to Cultivate A Positive Attitude towards Life, No matter How bad the a Situations seems to be? The power of positive thinking is in the emotions it produces. You can think of all the things you want all day, but if your feelings contradict your thoughts, you will never get it! The key to your success in all things, is in controlling your emotions. When you recognize and accept the power and responsibility of your feelings, only then, will you gain the unlimited power of your thoughts. Because only then will your mind be "tuned" into the law of attraction frequency.

The emotions you feel work FOR you exclusively, first and foremost. This applies to ALL feelings you have and send, even for external things such as events and people. If you see someone with something that you desire and feel negative about it with anger, envy, or sadness, then that is the command you are transmitting to the universe! By focusing on the negative, you are asking for the circumstances that will make you feel negativity, exactly as you have asked. Your intentions may be good but you have unknowingly used the power of positive thinking against itself. Reverse your feelings and reverse your life!

One of the best ways to make sure that you are able to think positively is whenever you set out to do something always picture the task successfully completed before you start. This is fairly common advice in which you are told to picture the end results, the problem is that most people just leave it there. Obviously picturing yourself as being successful is not going to be enough, you will have to take action. It is however a very good start and is something that you should get into the habit of doing.

Remember happy or exciting memories from the past and visualise how you felt at that moment. Close your eyes and relish in those thoughts, awakening your senses to what you were thinking, seeing, touching or smelling - reliving the memory. Avoid letting your mind wander into any sad or negative memories by quickly replacing them with good and positive thoughts. Forget past mistakes, you cannot change them, you can only learn from them.

The more you use the power of positive thinking to direct your emotions the more gratitude will swell within you. Nurture this over-all "good" feeling of thankfulness for all you have, all you will have, and for the power you are tapping into. Allow the love within you to completely fill the voids of emptiness and despair that plague so many needlessly. The more love you send the more you will receive what you love back. And the more love you will have filling your life until it is overflowing throughout all areas of your life, and into others' as well. You can be whatever you want. You can have whatever you want. You can create the story of your life right now. All you have to do is think about what you love, and FEEL your love for it. Do this with a grateful heart and have the faith to NOT understand how, why, or when you will get what you want. Just trust in your positive thoughts and the feelings they inspire within you. Within them awaits the secret truth you've carried in your heart yet searched so hard to discover. That you can have, do, and become ANYTHING you desire. You just have to ask, and you do this by how you choose to feel!
