The Power Of Positive Thinking

           FOOD FOR THOUGHTS

A life of success and achievement is a direct result of utilizing the power of positive thinking. The most important asset you have in your quest to live your dreams? It’s right under your nose. Actually your nose is part of it. It’s simply – YOU. More specifically YOUR MIND.

THE POWERHOUSE TO YOUR DREAMS - YOUR MIND AND THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING.

Your thoughts are the most important asset you have in your desire to achieve your dreams. They affect you in ways you never thought possible. The truth is, whether you know it or not,your thoughts are responsible for whatever place or situation you are in right now.

Nobody would argue that electricity exists. You can’t touch, smell, hear or see it, but its effects are evident everywhere you look. Its power is evident everywhere you look.In the same way, your thoughts are energy . Your thoughts drive your life just as electricity drives a

motor. That is the power there is in having a positive mental attitude.Yes, I am not the first one to say this and I bet I won’t be the last either. You know why? Because it is true . It’s simple, but true. There is power in thoughts; in negative and in positive thinking.

Choose positive thinking and you will enjoy positive energy and positive results.YOU ARE WHAT YOU THINK. This is one of my favorite positive thinking quotes:

If you think you are beaten you are;

If you think you dare not, you don't;

If you want to win but think you can't;

It's almost a cinch you won't.

If you think you'll lose you're lost;

For out of the world we find

Success begins with a fellow's will;

It's all in a state of mind.

Life's battles don't always go to the stronger and faster man,But sooner or later the man who wins Is the man who thinks he can.

PART TWO - Power of positive thinking James Allen describes one of the best analogies on

the power of positive thinking that I have ever read in his timeless classic “As a Man Thinketh.” He likens the mind to a garden. If planted with beautiful plants and carefully nurtured and tended to, th egarden will yield beautiful flowers and be a place of comfort, beauty and peace. If neglected, weeds willcreep in and destroy the beauty and yield thorns,destruction and harshness. Of-course, sometwisted or strange gardener may actuallydeliberately plant weeds and unpleasant plants.It is the same with the mind. If you plant beautiful,healthy thoughts into your mind you will reap abeautiful, healthy life. If you plant negative thoughtsyou will reap destruction and despair in your life. If

you neglect to feed your mind healthy thoughts and to protect it from negative thoughts, the weeds of destruction will creep in and choke your mind.Another way thoughts can be planted in your mind is through Subliminal messages.The power of positive thinking will yield good results in the same way that negative thinking will yield bad

results.

You cannot sow poison ivy and hope to reap apples

You cannot think negative thoughts and hope to live a positive life. Seed time and harvest are the laws we live by. You reap what you sow. 

You live what you think. You live what you say. That is why it is important to say the right things and sometimes we have to make a deliberate effort to do so through

positive affirmations.

  Here is a quote that can be related to the power of positive thinking:

Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap.

KJV Bible - Galatians 6:7 Here’s another quote illustrating the power of

positive thinking:Finally, brethren,

whatsoever things are true,

whatsoever things are honest

 ,

whatsoever things are just ,

whatsoever things are pure,

whatsoever things are lovely,

whatsoever things are of good report ;

if there be any virtue,

and if there be any praise ,

think on these things.

KJV Bible Philipians 4:8

Any self-improvement program or journey of personal development starts with your thoughts.

Master your thoughts first. Then you can master your environment and circumstances. Self

motivation is easy if you have this step figured out.Realize that your thoughts are under your control. If you don’t, you will be under the control of your thoughts! Realize what the power of positive thinking can do to change your life and give you a brighter future – the kind of future you want!

YOU ARE IN CONTROL - HARNESS THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING.

Isn’t that good news? That means YOU are in control. Not fate. Not lady luck. YOU. If you can think it, you can have it!Whatever THE MIND OF MAN Can CONCEIVE And BELIEVE it can ACHIEVE

Think and Grow Rich - Napoleon Hill.

That has got to be the best positive thinking quote ever. It’s short and to the point, yet so powerful and true. Absorb it. Memorize it. Live by it!Negative thoughts as well as positive thoughts will bear fruit. Conceive negative – achieve negative.Conceive positive – achieve positive. Positive thinking is the key. Norman Vincent Peale knew this

when he wrote his classic book - The power of Positive Thinking Self motivation begins with believing in yourself.

DEVELOP THE POWER OF POSITIVE THINKING -THINK THE RIGHT THOUGHTS.

There are many techniques that I have come

across to do this. Some of the most practical are:

- Expose your mind to the right things.

- Watch the right movies.

- Listen to the right music.

- Read the right books.

- Associate with the right people.

Stay away from negative people – they will drain

you of your energy and drag you down with them.

Avoid them like the plague.

Thinking right is not a quick-fix process. You

cannot change 20 year old habits in one week. You

should not attempt to. It will frustrate you. Start

slowly. Before long, it will become a habit to think

right. Don’t get discouraged if you struggle a little

with it. It takes time. It is a lifelong process. It is a

way of life. It only ends when you die. Persevere.

Anything that is not in harmony with your dreams

and desires – throw it out. Weed it out of your mind.

Continually work at it and you will develop a

beautiful mind . You will develop a mind that will

deliver to you the power of positive thinking and all

the lovely things that go with it.

"Your thoughts are the architects of your destiny".

David O. McKay

thinking - Believe in Yourself and in your abilities.

If you truly desire to live your dreams you need to

take stock of your worth. Maybe you will realize

your dreams are not as big as they should be!

with your worth and your deepest convictions, you

need to talk your dreams into reality. It's all up to

YOU. YOU are in charge of your destiny. YOU CAN

do it.
