POSITIVE THINKING

THE KEYS TO POSITIVE THINKING.

Definition.

“The wise man changes his mind, the fool will never. There can be no progress without change, and no growth, without renewal.”(Raymond Holly well).

    Positive thinking can be practiced and like anything rehearsed the more it is repeated the better you get at it according to its definition positive thinking is a mental attitude in which you expect good and favorable results. in other words positive thinking is the process of creating thoughts that promote an optimal and opportune reality simply put it is nourishing your mind with the quality energy it needs to function at the zenith of its abilities.

    Positive thoughts encourage healthy relationships and a  productive lifestyle as well as an encouraging attitude to your peers appositive mind awaits fulfillment health and a constructive ending in any situation. This is why knowing how to think positively is such an important factor on the journey of you becoming your best you so without further a do here are the steps on how to think positively. 

Step one Replacement in this context

    Replacement is the act of substituting negative thoughts with positive thoughts immediately upon their inception simply put as soon as a negative thought enters your mind replace it with a positive one. This practice will help exercise your mind to become more constructive about the events happening in your life, for example say you have an exam that you need to pass next week and thus you have been studying countless hours in preparation for the exam even though you may be well prepared negative thoughts and doubts may still linger.

    Saying what if I forget everything during the test what if I’m not actually well prepared and I just think I’m well prepared. Always remember thoughts are things and those thoughts may lead to exactly what they are suggesting. No matter how unlikely that reality may be practice replacement by immediately replacing those thoughts as they enter your mind with encouraging thoughts. Such as I will remember everything during the exam and i will pass with flying colors or i have done my best to be the most prepared possible i have a great chance of doing amazing on this test. This does not mean to think on top of those negative thoughts this practice literally means to use the energy dedicated to the negative thinking and transforming them into positive thoughts. Manifesting your desires as said by Albert Einstein energy cannot be created or destroyed it can only be changed from one form to another, therefore according to that same concept use all the energy that is being used for negativity and find ways to express them into positivity. It may not be easy at first but through practice your mind will become stronger and adapt to consistent positive thought give it a try.

Step 2 Create a mantra

    As per its definition a mantra is a statement or slogan repeated frequently. Basically sentences that you say to yourself consistently your words are much more powerful than you think and slowly but surely you begin to believe what you say to yourself on a regular basis. In this context creating a mantra is creating a group of words or phrases that you will repeat to yourself whenever you feel lost alone down or in doubt. In the same way that corporations use consistent advertising to tell you the same message over and over and over until you believe in and stand by their products you will create sentences to repeat to yourself as often as necessary. 

    Until you believe in and stand by yourself creating a mantra and repeating it frequently will encourage your belief. In the mantra which will in turn encourage its manifestation just like when you hear a song that you don't like at first listen but after hearing it so many times on so many different occasions you start to think well i guess the song is not that bad and you realize you already know all of the lyrics with your personal mantras. Your mind will work in the same way however this time with positive messaging encouraging a life of fulfillment your mantra could be simple as it could be long and complex but always be sure that it is true to you.

Step 3 Refuse to stop at failure

    Failure is a state of mind to believe that failure is the end is a choice not only is failure a necessary element to your success to fail means that there's an open opportunity to do better on your next attempt. This simply implying that failure is only finite if you accept to stop trying. The only thing that can truly stop your progress in this reality is not being alive at all therefore in failure you are either learning to accomplish what you are meant to accomplish or learning that you should use your skills elsewhere effusing failure means to continue to manifest your truth at any cost. Except that you can accomplish anything you put your mind to changing your perception of failure will encourage positive avenues for your mind to create with.

Step 4 Accept your growth

    Accepting your growth is coming to terms with the natural phenomena of change as your dreams are manifested you will dream bigger and differently. Than you once did and as life progresses your ideas will grow it is important not to work against yourself by trying to live a dream that is outdated to you. This means don't cling to old dreams out of habit, out of the desire to impress people or to keep a consistent image of yourself as all things in nature you mature and change think of your life as the life of a butterfly at first you are but a caterpillar imagine crawling slowly to get to your destinations as a caterpillar your biggest goal might be to get the food on the tree branch crawling as fast as you could.

    Because that is all you know it is impossible for you to know the feeling of being crystallized inside of a cocoon you have never experienced it going into he cocoon is the beginning of a new you and thus the death of the old you once inside the cocoon you will have cocoon thoughts and a cocoon life experience again you have no idea of the feeling and the mind frame of what is to come in the next step of your life. All you have is now it is not possible for you to know the feeling of flapping your wings you have never had wings but alas you change again once you are out of the cocoon. You will instinctively learn to flap your wings and fly away as a caterpillar your greatest desires will be different than those in your life as a cocoon which will also differ from those in your life as a butterfly. Your life experience works in the same way as this example accept your growth and don't be afraid to change your ideas as you change.

     As said by Raymond holly well the wise man changes his mind the fool will never there can be no progress without change and no growth without renewal.

 Sep five Be thankful

 Show gratitude for the things you have a great way to begin thinking positively is to become cognizant of the things that you have been blessed with so far from the people in your life to the possessions you own to your health. Being thankful is a great way to begin your journey in positive thinking enumerating the things you are thankful for may even remind you that your state of mind has been negative for some time. Always remember there was a time you wished for everything you have now always give thanks.

Step six Positive actions

  This simply implies to partake in small positive actions throughout your day. These actions will accumulate and encourage a sense of ease and even accomplishment despite a not so great day especially when your mind has consistent and often self-sabotaging thoughts doing positive or partaking in constructive actions in spite of how you may feel will encourage a sense of pride and contentedness with self. These actions could vary from kind gestures to small tasks on your to-do list although it may not seem like much during the action. Once they accumulate you'll begin to feel proud of yourself for everything you did despite going through what you believe to be negative this will encourage positive thoughts about yourself and stimulate positive thoughts on the perspective of your days overall.
