Thoughts become things

The Power of Positive Thinking

Republished from successconsciousness

Positive thinking is a mental and emotional attitude that focuses on the bright side of life and expects positive results.

A positive person anticipates happiness, health and success, and believes he or she can overcome any obstacle and difficulty.

Positive thinking is not accepted by everyone. Some, consider it as nonsense, and scoff at people who follow it, but there is a growing number of people, who accept positive thinking as a fact, and believe in its effectiveness.

It seems that this subject is gaining popularity, as evidenced by the many books, lectures and courses about it.

To use it in your life, you need more than just to be aware of its existence. You need to adopt the attitude of positive thinking in everything you do.

How Positive Thinking Works

The following story illustrates how this power works:

Allan applied for a new job, but he didn't believe he will get it, since his self-esteem was low, and he considered himself as a failure and unworthy of success.

He had a negative attitude toward himself, and therefore, believed that the other applicants were better and more qualified than him.

Allan's mind was occupied with negative thoughts and fears concerning the job, for the whole week preceding the job interview. He actually, anticipated failure.

On the day of the interview, he got up late, and to his horror he discovered that the shirt he planned to wear was dirty, and the other one needed ironing. As it was already too late, he went out wearing a wrinkled shirt and without eating breakfast.

During the interview, he was tense, negative, hungry and worried about his shirt. All this, distracted his mind and made it difficult for him to focus on the interview. His overall behavior made a bad impression, and consequently, he materialized his fear and did not get the job.

Jim applied for the same job too, but approached the matter in a different way. He was sure that he was going to get the job. During the week preceding the interview, he often visualized himself making a good impression and getting the job.

In the evening before the interview, he prepared the clothes he was going to wear, and went to sleep a little earlier. On day of the interview, he woke up earlier than usual, and had ample time to eat breakfast, and then to arrive to the interview before the scheduled time.

Jim made a good impression and got the job.

What do we learn from these two stories? Was there any magic used? No, everything happened in a natural way.

Positive Thinking Is a Way of Life

With a positive attitude we experience pleasant and happy feelings. This brings brightness to the eyes, more energy, and happiness. Our whole being broadcasts good will, happiness and success. Even our health is affected in a beneficial way. We walk tall, our voice is more powerful, and our body language shows the way we feel.

Positive and negative thinking are contagious.

We affect, and are affected by the people we meet, in one way or another. This happens instinctively and on a subconscious level, through words, thoughts and feelings, and through body language.

Is it any wonder that we want to be around positive people, and prefer to avoid negative ones?

People are more disposed to help us, if we are positive, and they dislike and avoid anyone broadcasting negativity.

Negative thoughts, words and attitude, create negative and unhappy feelings, moods and behavior. When the mind is negative, poisons are released into the blood, which cause more unhappiness and negativity. This is the way to failure, frustration and disappointment.

Positive Thinking Instructions and Advice

In order to turn the mind toward the positive, some inner work is required, since attitude and thoughts do not change overnight.

1. Read about this subject, think about its benefits, and persuade yourself to try it. The power of your thoughts is a mighty power that is always shaping your life. This shaping is usually done subconsciously, but it is possible to make the process a conscious one. Even if the idea seems strange, give it a try. You have nothing to lose, but only to gain.
2. Ignore what other people say or think about you, if they discover that you are changing the way you think.
3. Use your imagination to visualize only favorable and beneficial situations.
4. Use positive words in your inner dialogues, or when talking with others.
5. Smile a little more, as this helps to think positively.
6. Once a negative thought enters your mind, you have to be aware of it, and endeavor to replace it with a constructive one. If the negative thought returns, replace it again with a positive one. It is as if there are two pictures in front of you, and you have to choose to look at one of them, and disregard the other. Persistence will eventually teach your mind to think positively, and to ignore negative thoughts.
7. In case you experience inner resistance and difficulties when replacing negative thoughts with positive ones, do not give up, but keep looking only at the beneficial, good and happy thoughts in your mind.
8. It doesn't matter what your circumstances are at the present moment. Think positively, expect only favorable results and situations, and circumstances will change accordingly. If you persevere, you will transform the way your mind thinks. It might take some time for the changes to take place, but eventually they will.
9. Another useful technique is the repetition of affirmations. This technique is similar to creative visualization, and can be used together with it.

Thank you Universe, thank you Rhonda and entire team for The Secret book that makes life is simple and change our lives.

The book was introduced to me by my office girl one year ago. After I had read the whole book, I was feeling very positive. I also watch video.

Every day I am practicing gratitude for small things. I need money, seven thousand, and Ii ask the Universe. Then I felt as if I had received the money and said thank you for the money. Then I let it be.

After 3-4 months I received of same amount of unexpected money from my bank account!!

One day I was checking my net banking and suddenly I see one more account! I saw there is mode balance of Rupees seven thousand since 2011 in my account! I did not know that money was in my account!!

I am very happy and grateful for money I received.

I attracted many more things, my part time job, family ticket confirmed and my hair fall stopped falling out completely.

I read stories on a daily basis that inspire me and make me positive.

Just have faith on universe.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for everything I have and am going to receive very soon.

Once again thank you Universe.

Holding On To My Beliefs

Republished from The Secret

Thank you God, creator of this wonderful Universe. Thank you to Rhonda and all her collaborators. Thank you to all the people who share their inspiring stories.

I came upon The Secret in 2007 thru a co-worker who listened to the audio edition and spoke to me about it but I didn’t really pay attention. Later in 2008, I went thru a really bad time in my life when my long time boyfriend and I broke up, I was devastated. That was when my cousin gifted me the book, The Secret. I read it and applied it to manifesting my boyfriend back to my life. Undoubtedly, 10 months later, we were back together.

Later, in 2012 we broke up again. I prayed that God would bring him back, but I learned a prayer that basically says, “God I leave everything in your hands, you know things better than I do and if you don’t grant me this miracle, I trust you will grant me another miracle that will change my life, and allow me to see things in a different perspective, with more faith, and trust in you”.

And sure enough, he granted me a miracle, not the one I was asking for, but a miracle indeed.

In 2014, I started a new job. My first day reporting there as soon as I walked into the building, sitting there was a man who turned out to be the miracle God sent me. As soon as I laid eyes on him, my heart literally skipped a beat. We didn’t say anything for a couple of days but I knew I would end up talking to him.

Sure enough, a couple of days later we started talking and we hit it off immediately. We became really good friends and co-workers. We have so many things in common and so many traits that I have been wanting in a partner. We were assigned to work together one day, and his words were, “Finally, we can spend some time alone!” I was so nervous but excited at the same time. We exchanged phone numbers and he text me saying he liked me as soon as he saw me too, but he thought I wouldn’t like him. We have a connection that I never felt with anyone else.

I still have to work on our relationship because although we hit it off and have so many things in common there’s times when he doesn’t call for days and doesn’t answer my calls. He says he has problems and says it has nothing to do with any other women and he has no kids, so even though I don’t know what’s going on, I trust that we will be together and have the perfect relationship.

And that ex-boyfriend, is completely out of my life and I am totally okay with that.

I am so grateful that God allowed me to love again when I thought I would always be in love with my ex. He truly blessed me with a miracle. Thank you God!!
