Positive Thinking Category: Positive Thinking Positive thinking can be one of the most powerful weapons one can have. We are living in a brutally competitive world where a minor slip can result into voyage to abyss. Each one of us has this constant need of love, admiration and acceptance. However, people often fall victim to outbursts, anger, fear and dislikes. All these elements are mere manifestations of our negative thoughts. But the thing with negativity is that, the more you express it, the more you attract it. That’s where power of positive thinking comes into the picture. This is not something to be underestimated and certainly not to be considered as a mere preaching tool of sages and holy men. If you can simply think in a positive way, you can most certainly affect the outcome of your actions. Whatever we do begins with a thought. We are always thinking something or the other. So why not we should strive to incorporate this inevitable thought process in our lives in a positive way? Positive thinking is a virtue and a necessity in today’s world. The single attribute of positive thinking can help in making a difference to our lives and also to the people in our surroundings. Positive thought instigate positive attitude towards a task, which in turn changes the outcome. Health experts and psychologists have reiterated the virtue of positive thinking in our lives. It is the crucial foundation upon which a healthier, happier and longer life is build upon. It is important to identify negative thoughts as soon as they appear on the surface and bury them before they start taking root. The challenge is to apply mind and logics instead of emotions. Cultivate the hobby of positive thinking. Hang around with people who have a positive disposition towards life. Positivity is infectious and when you are surrounded by delightful people, you start feeling and behaving the same. We must live in the present. Most of our fears and insecurities arise from past regrets or future worries. Avoid sentences like ‘I wish I could have’ or ‘I wish I should have’. Past is gone and future comes when it comes. Present is what we have so we must make the most out of it. Develop a healthy eating and sleeping schedule. De-clutter your life and your home. Be natural and be happy with what you are and what you have. Focussing on what you have will make give you more happiness instead of pondering over what you lack. These simple suggestions will help you in developing positive thinking in your life. Positive Thinking... From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search

Acoustic Alchemy chronology 10th 11th 9th Positive The Beautiful Arcanum Thinking... Game (1996) (1998) (2000) Positive Thinking... is the tenth and final album recorded by Acoustic Alchemy for GRP in 1998. It marks a milestone in the band's history not only for the change of record company, but for the loss of founding member Nick Webb, who died during the recording of this album. His name appears in the credits for having contributed to every song, however Webb's parts in the recordings were done by longstanding sideman John Parsons. Current steel string guitarist Miles Gilderdale contributes to two songs on this album. The song "Augusträsse 18" is titled after the address of the HansaHaus Studios in Bonn, Germany where Acoustic Alchemy recorded numerous albums under producer John Parsons.

Meditation can be considered a technique, or practice. Meditation is a practice that is specific to one individual. Only that person can understand the significance and it's effect on one self. • Experiences during meditation vary significantly from one individual to another. Meditation leaves you with relaxed mental status and clear mental status as to how one want to think and live. How is meditation different from relaxation, thinking, concentration? Relaxation: Relaxation is a common by-product of meditation. Relaxation itself can assume many forms, such as taking a hot bath or reclining in your couch. Meditation is an active process where the mediator remains fully aware of what the awareness is doing. Relaxation does not involve a self implicated restrained on thought process, but meditation is an evoking of the power of keeping all your senses in control. Thinking: Thoughts are a process of putting an effort on your brain and finding a solution to your problem or thought in perspective, but meditation transcends it all. Here mind does concentrate on an object or an idea, but without putting an extra effort on brain or neurons. Concentration: Meditation's stepping-stone is concentration, and higher state of concentration leads to meditation. How to have mediation in my life? Meditation is a practice that is different for each individual. It holds a different meaning to every individual person. There are a few recommended guidelines for meditation: It should be done every day, preferably at the same time. It should preferably be done before a meal rather than after a meal A spot should be set aside for meditation, which should be a quiet ..place and used for nothing but meditation. • One should sit with the spine straight and vertical What are the physiological effects of meditation? The most common physiological effects of meditation are reduced blood pressure, lower pulse rate, decreased metabolic rate and changes in the concentration of serum levels of various substances. Before starting Meditation can be performed only when one is convinced and has conviction to do it. It is not a sheer physical exercise like aerobics or weight training, but an attitude that has to be imbibed in oneself. One has to understand the reason for why one is doing it, and how one would like to ensue with it. Meditation is the highest yoga practice, one that require not just association of body to mind but both of them should be in a harmony, a conjunction or mind over body. This is what makes meditation a rare practice to have complete perfection in it. • One more reason that makes it so is the fact that very few people can comply the strict regime of meditation. Meditation demands a complete understanding of the practices involved in whole process. One needs to understand the reason why he or she would like to perform this technique. Meditation in initial stages has to be on a particular object, a physical object that would be your object of consideration and concentration. Advance stages can be followed up with an idea in mind, a thought that requires some further pondering and time. The steps of meditation Meditation has been classified in three basic steps which leads to the ultimate perfection in this practice. • Dharana - mental concentration Dhyana - meditation • Samadhi - blissful identification Dharana - mental concentration Smell, taste, sight, touch and hearing are five perceptive senses that constitute our response factors. A sense gives us the ability to deduce an action, and react correspondingly. Respective sense gives attention to a particular action and thus we start giving importance to an object . This importance or attention is an iota to meditation process. But this could be built further on to meditation. As the more of attention we pay to a particular sense, more information can be gathered by that particular sense. Simultaneously mind can be taught to ignore sense organs. Mind has an uncanny capacity of focusing itself on an object or an idea, to an extent where mind can sense only that particular object or an idea. Where all other senses tend to become feeble. Defining the concept Dhrana is sheer concentration, a state of oblivion to lesser issues. When one sense responds to ur mind, to the maximum. When other senses seem to be in least conjunction with your mind. Mind is movement "Dharana" means "holding the mind." According to the ancient philosophy mind is a very volatile and precarious organ, always on a capricious move. Usually defined as a perpetual movement in process. Our ignorance, prejudice and feeble will make our perception that we just cannot concentrate on things. Concentration is a thing for people with special powers who can churn up miracles with their concentration. That is not what is true, one can make mind to concentrate on anything. You just require a strong will and focus to do it. • Dharana is a sheer ability of internal focusing, where no matter what is the object, irrespective of one's interest in that particular object one should not only be able to focus on that but converge to details of that object. One should not force meditation on to mind it has to be a complete gradual and acquiescent and submissive process. Where every thing works in conjunction with a common goal in mind.How to start ?Sit on floor or on a chair with your neck and spine aligned in a straight line. Relax yourself and close your eyes. • 1. Relax quickly and deeply from bottom to top. Let your attention swiftly scan your body and release all tensions. • 2. Let your breathing become calm and peaceful. • 3. Turn the attention inward (introversive gaze) and disconnect yourself from the outer disturbing factors (noises, etc.); begin to withdraw the mind from any thoughts that arise (as a result of the activity of the senses) by making a brief but detetrmined effort to stop the discursive thinking; 4. Concentrate the mind (dharana) upon the object of your choice. During dharana, the mind is like a mirror: the only activity is to reflect the object. Dhyana - the state of meditation

• LEARN TO FREE YOUR SOUL NOW • "Dhyana (meditation per se) is the continuous flow of the mental processes toward the object (of meditation)." The basic principle one tends to think about a thought or an idea, other ideas tends to fade and become sublime in front of that idea. This is the basic principle of meditation. The prevailing thought is created by concentration and the movement of the mind around that particular thought is meditation. Concentration and meditation, even if they seem very close, are nevertheless distinct phenomena. If you realize a good concentration, this will lead automatically to meditation, because in yoga every step, when perfectly realized, gives the key to the next step. Transition from concentration should be a very gradual. Let it come naturally: this will certainly happen after a certain period of practice. How to start. The first step in dhyana (meditation) is dharana (mental concentration). Keep this in mind: at a deep level, nobody can really teach you to meditate, except yourself, applying the traditional information exposed in this material. 2. The next step is this: while keeping the dharana (concentration) state of mind, let go of it, allow your thoughts to move freely, to make connections, associations. You will discover that now your mind will not jump any more at random but, on a lower level, dharana (concentration) will be sustained almost effortlessly and, on a higher level, the thoughts will start to move, to revolve around the object only. This is dhyana (meditation). To begin with in Dhyana, the movement of your mind around the object will probably not last long. Other thoughts will start to revolve around the object in flashes, and then will stop, leaving you with concentration only. After a while, other spark of thought movement occurs, then stop, and so on. After some time of practice, the periods of thought movement will become longer and longer, ending eventually in a continuous thought movement. Then you reach the true state of meditation (dhyana). The real purpose • Meditation is not a procedure or technique to let you out of tensions or manage your worries. It aa holistic approach to one self going beyond relaxation and cure. Samadhi - blissful identification We saw that dhyana (meditation) is the continuous flow of mental processes toward the object of meditation. This process leads gradually to a blissful identification (co-penetration of the object of meditation with the practitioner's own being). Samadhi is the highest state of Meditation. In samadhi the mind, continuously and to the exclusion of all other objects, assumes the nature and becomes one with the object. • Positive Thinking • The basic idea behind meditation is to rejuvenate and revitalize our six sense organs.

In samadhi the mind, continuously and to the exclusion of all other objects, assumes the nature and becomes one with the object. Public Speaking - Vocalize Your Thoughts

Public speaking is the art of communicating your opinion and idea to an audience who is ready to hear you. The power of expression cannot be belittled in the least, for it is this expression of idea and opinion that has been behind revolutions and reforms and has been at the base of maintaining democracies in the world.

Though the importance of public speaking is immense, it is one of the most avoided and feared aspects for a large number of individuals. It is a challenge not only for normal people but also for people holding high and important posts. This fear is marked by sweaty palms, stuttering and a sudden loss for words, making you speechless literally. Ever pondered what makes this self expression so difficult and how to overcome it.

While speaking on the dais we cannot be rattling words, and this calls for preparation. Someone rightly said, Memorable speeches are written with mind and spoken from heart. The delivery of speech should be with conviction but writing requires concentration. A methodical approach to your inspirational writing will be a winning combination.

ROLE OF PUBLIC SPEAKING If you thought only actors and motivational speakers need to be good at talking to an audience, you are mistaken. All professions at some point of time will require you to speak publicly, in the form of making a presentation, addressing a meeting or conference, airing your views generally in a discussion, etc. Hence there is no escape but to get the better of this fear. Moreover there is a lot of value addition through public speaking like:

1.) Enhances your personality growth: There is a sense of self worth when we do something good and people appreciate it. Admiration is a confidence booster and we all need it. When people applaud your point of view and the way you present it, you rise in your own eyes and it leads to immense personal satisfaction. Also through systematic preparation of research, organization and conceptualization you are able to put your point across effectively and gain audience confidence or the superiors and subordinates approval. 2.) Influences the surrounding: From childhood through life, we make public speeches. As in reciting a poem in school, gathering support from co-workers, voicing views on national issues or others. We say what we think and what we think influences our society. 3.) Professional Opportunities: Confidence is the most important factor in becoming a good public speaker. When you are brimming with confidence, you definitely capture the other person's attention. And this is where you open doors for better professional opportunities. As you advance in your professional hierarchy, you will need to be more influential and inspiring for the people working around and under you. It is here that your ability to command will be at display and a good speaker can do it most effectively.

Working on your first speech: If you thought that, that other person looks smarter and more confident than you and he will do a great job as a public speaker, you might probably be wrong or that person could be thinking just the same about you. At times we preconceive the results about our own abilities but it pays to give yourself a chance. Who knows may be you have the bearing of a great orator? Preparing to Speak: Here are the basic rules of public speaking:

• Gain an understanding of who you are. Discover your own knowledge, capabilities, biases and potentials. Do not underestimate yourself under any condition.

• Gain an understanding of your audience. Ponder upon what the audience wants to hear, what provokes their interest, what they believe in and what they want to know.

• Gain an understanding of the situation. Consider how the setting of the place and other unforeseen factors could affect the way you deliver your speech.

• Anticipate response from the audience. Make sure you have a clear purpose in mind so that the audience will respond in the way you want them to.

• Search for other sources of information. There might be more materials available for you to make your speech more colorful. A little hard work will show itself in louder applause for you.

• Come up with an argument that is reasonable. Make sure that the purpose of your speech is supported by clear and reliable data to formulate a sound argument.

• Add structure to your message. Organize your ideas so that the audience will not have a hard time following and digesting your ideas.

• Talk directly to your audience. Make sure the language you are using is one that your audience is comfortable with. Consider the occasion in delivering your speech.

Understanding the audience: The speech will be much better received if it is prepared keeping in mind the audience present. It is helpful if the age, cultural, gender, social and professional differences of the audience are kept in mind while writing the speech. This will enable you to connect and interact with the audience with ease and pleasure. Also it is important to take notice of the audience's reaction and body language while you speak to them. This will reveal the level of their comprehension, enjoyment and interest towards your speaking. Moon Manage Your Thoughts Online

Mind-Moon and thoughts have a very intimate relationship. Mind is always chattering. The problems sometimes are that when you are engaged in a conversation there is a tendency to become impulsive. Mind provokes to utter such words or create some actions which are not in harmony with the people around. It may be very loud or abusive language or obscene actions.

This happens more frequently in family relationships or friends or even in business sometimes. The impact is realized later and once spoken words can't be retrieved even by saying sorry. Mind is greatly affected by the placement of moons in one's horoscope. Moon is the fastest moving planet in our solar system. Astrologically the placement of the moon in birth chart of an individual has lot of meaning. Stronger the moon stronger the mind, weaker the moon weaker the mind. At the birth moon defines the major periods of all the planets in ones life cycle.

Moon rules of fluids. Three-fourth of earth is water. The tides of the oceans are controlled by the waxing or waning moon. Moon has a cycle of 28 days every month. Where and you have the full moon and the dark night. Moon effect is very evident from the above fact. Medically women have their cycle of menstruation of 28 days. The women's cycle is controlled by the moon's 28 days cycle. The human bodies larger constitutes are liquids. So the moon has very direct effect on human bodies and mind. The fastest movement of moon in the zodiac keeps the changes at a fast pace.

Due to the effects of the moon on the body and mind the sudden abrupt anger and impulses arise though there are other factors too like the human beings education, environment and self nature. But everyone sets effected by the moons movements frequently. There are very few people who are by nature or trained to be very discreet. The fact is that one can train ones mind to be in central and discreet. Moon is a very benefic planet and is giver of light and is very peaceful in nature too. Though it can create lot of violence also like the tides in the oceans. By practice one can train one's mind to be in control. People tend to become very loose after couple of drinks. Even that can be controlled mind by training your mind to demand a reasonable quantity of the last creating products. We human are the light and sound vibrating and dancing energy, children of the God- the universal soul, mind has a language of images which is the most ancient, creative imagination and creative positive visualistion and put the mind in the right perspective. Even repetitive mantras and self motivating dialogues are very useful.

Every one must have heard of online editing by the media professionals. This is done online events. This is very important on National Republic days or Big. Leaders visits to other countries. Because the negligence of any kind is not affordable on such events of international importance.

Train your mind to edit your thoughts process online. Your chattering mind is constantly thinking and having various images filtering through the brain. Just put an auto editor and train your self to edit before you broadcast any of your utterances. By practice your mind will obey and set used to the instructions and keep on doing the online editing. Thus avoiding the impulsiveness generated by the moon s effect on the body s fluids. You will soon find your life more beautiful, more peaceful and more successful.

Your channeling of the mind and moon for managing your thoughts online can bring you huge successes and fortunes and also create great relationships for your life full of love and god's blessings. Enjoy the success ride and the god's abundance and affluence. Be blessed my children with the mind and moon energies harnessed in you. Attitude-Mind Over Matter In this cosmic Planet where we live, our lives are determined by how we react to things. Our attitude dominates our life in several ways. It can even change our destiny. A thought process going on in one mind can be controlled by another mind through the mind body n soul aerial. This can lead to a universal state in the entire universe. Our attitude is one of the most important factor in channel sing our energies.

It can deprive or retain our stability level. What we tell ourselves is but a matter of attitude we pertain towards several things. For instance, an action can acquire positive reaction by one, but a contradictory one from another. Our positive attitude can often pull us out of negative or stressful moments whereas; negative ones can make us hostile and aggravated. Furthermore, attitude is a by-product of rules and regulation. They are conceived and acted upon by us since we want to exist and be accepted in this world we live in. Hence, these rules rest on our attitude and perception towards the world. Positive attitude is a result of an affirmative Self-talk which begins with I CAN, I WANT, and I WILL. These words draw a sketch about the life we would be coloring. Some common beliefs and rules which people stick to unknowingly owing to social pressures are: I should never make mistakes I should be loved by all I should never lose my temper I should Believe in God I should never set my rules The list is endless. WE are ordinary people and not God almighty. We have the freedom to make mistakes. We are often over burdened by doubts, fears, conflicts that rise from irrational thinking about others and ourselves. Instead of this, we should imbibe the following thoughts: As a human being, I have the right to make mistakes I am not a perfectionist. I should be accepted by the world as I am. I don't need to change for anybody. I am not affected by other people's choices or attitudes, Therefore they cannot affect my happiness quotient. I am responsible for my own happiness and not for others. Similarly, my unhappiness or failure is at my own stake too. As a human being, I can cope with any circumstance good or bad, happy or sad and to survive it. I can accept any situation come what may and not complain about it. I have the full authority to feel angry, disturbed, and unsure as these are common human emotions and fighting them is genuinely in my mind, body and soul. A positive attitude can further change your concepts about life making it simpler. For example: A driver's first reaction in a traffic jam would be cursing the entire scenario, which is quite normal according to human emotions, but a positive minded person is more open and can instead enjoy listening to music or reading a book. We are all born with the same minds and body and souls. Yet the proper channelising of theses three institutions is the right way to live and can change our lives for the better. A sense of satisfaction and contentment is derived by positive attitude. It comes from the right balance between the belief and perception. A mismatch between the two can lead to despair, uneasiness and conflict. To gain peace of mind, it is important to bring your beliefs and perceptions together. Comments: It is wonderfully written piece of art of life sciences. I need to only add that we human beings are the children of the Of the GOD ALMIGHTY and born in his own image. We are blessed with his powers. We are the light and sound vibrating and dancing Energy children of the UNIVERSAL SOUL. We can create anything out of nothingness. Positive Thinking mind body soul is the answer to any thing and every thing . Think positive and love the positive attitude Your View-Your World True to every detail, it is actually right to phrase this term. Our own small world is created by the way we think. to live we have to change our thoughts.

Positive and Negative Thoughts Our attitudes, reactions, perceptions and beliefs all stem from the same root Our thinking. Our thoughts transmit deferent energies at different levels. The energy sent by us through our thoughts will attract the same frequency of energy. The thoughts we have will eventually develop a world on its own. In order to change our lives and make it better Thoughts are like glasses. Bad-framed glasses give us a different view of everything we see as compared to correct ones. Similarly positive thoughts are like colorful glasses, which provide a lovely view of whatever we see. Positive thoughts such as love, intimacy, compassion, peace, contentment, and satisfaction transmit higher energy levels. It is rightly said whatever we give so we will get. Positive feelings like love also provide higher levels of joy. Love sends highest energy vibrations. Love given is love received. This is rarely found in today's competitive world where feelings of contempt and hatred are exchanged amongst all. A person full of wrath and hatred if throws a volley of same vibrations will receive the same. Negative energy have feelings like hatred, contempt, dissatisfaction contain low energy levels.Thesaying ?what you sow you shall reap? pertains to the fact that the seeds of any fruit will give the same bearings. Whatever you give will come back to you in the same medium. By becoming a center of radiating love you will transmit the same amount at the same level. If unable to receive love obtain that feeling in your heart and love will start flowing towards you. Disease comes to those who are not physically weak but emotionally weak. Their Aura i.e. the energy surrounding them is weak therefore they are more susceptible to weaknesses and disease. Positive thoughts also tend to make us healthy and strong whereas weak ones make us sluggish and diseased. Thanks giving Being in direct connection with God enables you to have positive thoughts throughout your life. Thanking God and wishing for his blessings is unique way to foster a positive outlook towards the world. Gratitude is another way to accept whatever has been given to us. It can be in the form of good life, good food, and good health. Feelings of goodness foster immense pleasure to live happily. Offering prayers to the almighty develops a positive feeling and helps to face the world with all its problems with a good light. Compassion Feelings of compassion for one and all help in developing a positive outlook. No one in this world is alike. We are all born with different natures and temperaments. Accepting oneself and others is what is compassion all about. We must complete the work given by God regarding to the destinies he has designed for us. Turning our face from our paths make us questionable to the creation of the creator. Our perceptions towards others and ourselves develop our view to the world. A negative self image and misconception about others would result in unhappiness.The window to the world is in our eyes. The window might be grilled but the picture is same. As they say ? BEAUTY LIES IN THE EYES OF THE BEHOLDER? it is all imperative to the person. Love Yourself First Then Others We usually spend a major part of our life running after the people who we really crave for. What we don't realize is the importance of the life we live in. We take you for granted and forget everything in respect to our growth. In the blind race of money and power we forget who we are.

We tend to find ourselves incomplete and try to complete our lonely life with the solace provided by others. We all dislikes some parts of our body we are blessed with. They may be our hands, feet, legs or eyes. Then we admire those gifted actors who we seem are complete with nature's bounty of beauty. Yet whatever we have we should cherish it. It might seem tough but follow these simple rules and you are sure to find your way to beauty.

Analyze your whole self and not just your different parts. You would seem more appreciable to yourself and others once you take into consideration of yourself as a complete personality. It would include your way of talking, walking, eating, perceiving and others like your habits and way of taking life.

Stop finding faults in yourself and focus on the beauty side of it. You might not have beautiful hands but you might have appreciable eyes. Often focusing on good thing lead to positive approach to life and you start taking life differently.

Try to achieve something rather than frown over things you desired. If you have not got what you wanted, maybe it is not destined. Rather try achievements. Make goals and accomplish them. It would lead to a sense of power and control over your life.

Pictures of models that seem completely beautiful sans any flaws only seem to appear that way than what they really are. They go through vigorous sessions of make up, hair styling, and correct photography to shoot the correct angles. In the end, the pictures are developed when any negative thing like a flaw or scar is removed to make the picture seem more appealing. Sometimes even the body of one woman is attached with another one. A woman with beautiful eyes is linked with a woman of good figure. Even pictures of models who are exercising are not real. Beautiful models that are not so good in shape are links with superbly figured modes. That is the superficial. So, stop feeling low about yourself. God has given some good points but taken something. It is very rare to find a complete beauty.

Don't rush yourself to get quick results. You can never get results in a jiffy or overnight. Constant good habits like good sleep, proper diet intake and a positive frame of mind can make a picture perfect out of you. Being satisfied with the way you are is the best thing you can gift yourself. No amount of pills or month long crash diet would give positive results. Go the tortoise way and love everything you do. It would make a complete person out of you. Treat your self the same way you want to treat others. Often we take the it the other way. We normally treat others the way we want them to treat others. Give yourself the same admiration you give to the stars and soon you would start feeling like one. It is all in perception. We cannot teach other how to treat us. Rather we should respect ourselves first. Gods will Hope alone will give us the opportunities, strength and direction to explore, exploit and harness all those hidden and secret horizons leading to heights and happiness untold before. “Hope” is probably the mysterious hint God gives us to fulfill the ultimate plans made by Him for us.

So it is up to us if we care to take the hint, decipher it and reach our destiny as decided by Him, which is always infallible. The crux is as Cathy Jacob writes: Today is a fresh day, be it sad or gay, Try things in a new way, No matter what it may be. "A chance to make a fresh beginning, And to change failure into winning; To live a little better, And let your faith not shatter. You can be a winner, When God is on your side; Just trust His loving care, For He can turn the tide.” Think Positive, Feel Positive, Be positive!

Website designed and produced by Amanda Francis (C) Send Feedback to positivethinkingwebsite@h otmail.com The Power of Positive Thinking and how to get Affirmations To Work For You by KarimHajee Positive thinking is a practice and it requires that you have a certain mental attitude. When you have a positive thinking mindset you automatically have positive thoughts and you continually recite positive affirmations. This process happens automatically. When you have a positive thinking mindset you almost instantly find answers to even the most complex problems and challenges. Positive thinking is a mindset or attitude that is geared towards automatically expecting things to work out. A person with a Positive Thinking pattern in place expects, believes and trusts that things will always work out and they often do. This is not to be confused with someone who simply says: “Think positive and everything will workout.” Such a person is does not have the proper positive thinking mindset in place. They are simply turning to positive thinking when things go wrong – and by then it’s too late, the damage has been done. Someone who has a positive thinking mindset naturally thinks positive and always foresees happiness, good health, success, and a positive outcome to just about every situation and event that takes place. They also trust and know that they will make the right decision and the right choices. Since they expect it – their mind and subconscious mind find a way to make it happen. This is the power of having a positive thinking mindset. Now I know that not everybody thinks that positive thinking works, and often these are the people who use the concept of positive thinking sporadically or when they need to get out of a jam. That’s not the way positive thinking worse as I just outlined, so if you try this approach don’t expect results. There are also those who believe in positive thinking but don’t know how to properly apply it. These are the people who will say “Think Positive” when you’re down or when things aren’t going well. But the person hearing this phrase has no idea what they mean and so tries to apply it and doesn’t get the result they want. What I am about to tell you here today will change your life forever My name is KarimHajee and over the past 20 years I've been teaching people how to create the life they want by developing positive thinking patterns, working with powerful positive affirmations daily and how to direct the power of their mind and subconscious mind. I have worked with people all over the world and the results have been remarkable. I want you to enjoy the same success... and you can have the life you want and more... let me show you how... You Have Incredible Powers That Can Change Your Life! So How do you develop Positive Thinking? Before you can develop a positive thinking pattern you first have to realize that positive thinking is not something you do randomly. Positive thinking is a practice, one that you work with daily and apply regularly. By making it a daily habit you create a positive thinking mindset that allows you to avoid potentially negative and challenging situations, and helps you resolve dilemmas quickly and easily. With a positive thinking pattern in place you naturally enjoy a better, more rewarding life. You will attract what you think about regularly. So if you regularly think that life is difficult you will attract situations that will make your life difficult. If you think that it’s difficult to make money, you will attract situations that make it difficult for you to make money or make poor decisions about money. To have a positive thinking mindset you need to have positive thoughts, and they should be in your mind constantly. The best way to get started is to change they way you think. So start paying close attention to what you think. Everyday catch yourself thinking, ask yourself – what am I thinking about? Is this thought positive or negative? Does it help me improve my life or does it make my life more difficult? If the thought is not helpful, if it doesn’t allow you to succeed, if it doesn’t make your life more pleasant, if you find that the thought is going to attract what you don’t want then change it. Create a thought that is positive and recite it regularly. These are better known as positive affirmations. I know some will say: “I’ve tried positive affirmations and got no results.” Results with positive affirmations can vary. While they will help develop a positive thinking pattern it can take some time to see real results from reciting positive affirmations repeatedly. That’s because it depends on what you want and where you are in life. For example: if you want to be a millionaire and you’re currently earning 30- thousand dollars a year, it will likely take some time to earn a million and you may not see results as quickly as you want. Why? Because your current mind is programmed to making just 30-thousand dollars a year. To make a million you have to change the way your mind and subconscious mind operate. Working with Positive Affirmations will help but you’ll have to do a lot more. Another reason why positive affirmations don’t always create the results you want is because they are not phrased properly. To create a positive thinking mindset your positive affirmations should be said daily, should be in the present tense, and should be said in your voice. Working with affirmation CDs is also helpful. Visualize your success. See yourself succeeding at what you want to achieve. This will help boost the results of your affirmations. There no point saying an affirmation about making a million dollars and never have an image of you achieving that goal to support it. When you visualize your subconscious associates the image with the affirmation and helps you achieve the success you want sooner.

These changes won’t happen overnight, but they will happen and once they do – lookout because the process will accelerate. We are all connected and we have an impact on each other in ways we don’t even know or understand. Our thoughts and attitudes shape who we are. If you’re a chronic negative thinker, if you always look at the worst in every situation then you will naturally attract negative situations and negative people into your life. When you have a positive thinking pattern, when you work with positive affirmations daily and when you are focused on finding solutions you attract people and situations that will help you succeed, that’s why it’s so vital to have a positive thinking pattern.

Creating Power PS: If you continue doing the same things you'll only continue getting the same results. I am offering you the easiest and most effective way to create the changes you want and achieve your goals. The 7 Best Positive Thinking Techniques

Positive thinking techniques for a life full of joy and success… It is a proven fact that positive thinking is an incredible tool when it comes to moving toward a desired goal. However, this tool has to be maintained and used if it is to remain effective and allowed to develop. Most of us cannot just be positive; we have to work at it. Becoming a positive thinker takes time, effort, dedication, and a little know how. The following positive thinking techniques will have you surging toward success in no time: ______Positive Thinking Techniques: #1 – Write It Down The best place to start when you decide to transform your thought patterns is to write down the good things that you know already exist in your life. A great family, a good job, your home, your car, a degree; anything you have or are a part of that makes you happy and fills your with joy, write it down. The reason you should write them down is very simple. Most people tend toward being negative, you may be one of those. Transform Positive Thinking Into Lifelong Success – Discover The Secrets – Click Here To Begin! Brooding and self-pity seems to just creep up on us after just the slightest negative event. At that time, when we are feeling negative, it is can be extremely difficult to ‘think’ of something positive and pick ourselves up. However, if we have a list of the good positive stuff, all we have to do is to pull it out and start reading. Spending a few amounts focusing calmly on each of those items on the list in turn and feel the positivity return. ______Positive Thinking Techniques: #2 – Replacement In order to make positive thinking a real and natural part of your life, you will probably have to change some habits. Any time a habit is in need of changing, it is best to fill the void with something else. In this case, you will need to fill the void that is left when you stop a negative habit with a positive one. Consider some of the negative attitudes or thoughts that you have about yourself. Now choose one that you know you need to change or that your really want to change. Then think of positive thoughts and habits that you can replace that one with. Now every time that negative thought rears its ugly head, immediately begin thinking your positive replacement thought. Positive and negative cannot cohabitate in your mind, it is up to you to push the negative out with the positive. ______Positive Thinking Techniques #3 – Positive Affirmations You want to live up to the potential that you just know is lying inside of you and you can! Using positive self-affirmations you can boost your self-confidence and self-esteem to levels you may have never before imagined. It can seem almost magical. You may not notice the slight change taking place each time you repeat to yourself, “I will succeed because I am worthy of success,” or any other affirmation you choose. However, one day you or a loved one or coworker will notice that you walk a little taller, and you exude an air of success. Of course, when using your affirmations, use them religiously. Make positive affirmations a habit just like brushing your teeth or combing your hair. In fact they would be good times to build this positive thinking techniques into your routine. ______Positive Thinking Techniques: #4 – Visualization You know what you want. You know where you want to be next year, in five years, or in ten years. Then Visualize it! Imagination is a wonderful tool that humans have but few ever utilize it to its full potential. Get a mental picture of where you want to be, what you want to accomplish, or any other change for the better that you are wishing for. See yourself in that place doing what you want to do really feel how it will feel to be doing it. From now on, when you have a minute, re-call that picture back up into your mind and meditate on it. Each time you imagine your success your energy and determination to work toward that goal will be supercharged providing you with the motivation to take action. ______Positive Thinking Techniques: #5 – Use A Vision Board You can use pictures/photos to reinforce your dreams and goals. Find pictures that reflect the way you envision your end results. How do you think you will feel once those goals have been realized? Find pictures that reflect your feelings, that elation when you meet with success. Also, write out your positive affirmations and include those on your vision board. A vision board can be a poster board or a presentation board or even just a space on your wall. Place the board where you can see it every day and pause in front of it when possible and just let your mind and feelings focus on your desires. ______Positive Thinking Techniques: #6 – Circle of Encouragement Who you hang influences your thoughts and thought patterns probably more than you ever realised. You cannot and probably do not want to change most of your friends and acquaintances however make a point of seeking out like minded people who have already achieved similar goals to you and try and soak up their mental approach and attitude. You probably also have a few friends that you know you can trust with your dreams and goals. These are friends who will be encouraging. You know the ones who will be there to motivate and encourage you when you begin to slip back into negativity. These are the people you want to spend more time with. Also, telling someone you trust about your goals solidifies it and makes you feel that someone will hold you accountable to reaching those goals. ______Positive Thinking Techniques: #7 – Be The Source Sometimes we get so caught up in our dreams and our goals that we forget that there are people all around us with their own set of dreams and goals. One way to stay in a positive thinking mode is to be the source of the optimism for other people’s benefit. When you see someone doing a great job, tell him or her. Be encouraging to others as they strive toward their goals. Be that friend that they can trust to share their aspirations with and you will find that in return you yourself receive plenty of positive support in return. This is actually one of THE most remarkable positive thinking techniques and often takes people by surprise when they see how successful it is. ______Positive Thinking Techniques: #8 – Celebrate The Small Steps Even the biggest successes come in small stages. Celebrate every little achievement no matter how small. Even if you celebrate by yourself, celebrate! These small celebrations are extraordinarily motivational. Recognition of being one step closer to your goal gives you the momentum to take that next step and progress even further. ______In Conclusion Implementing these positive thinking techniques will keep you on the right track and move you towards your heart’s desire. You can do it, I believe in YOU! Want Happiness, Success, Health And Wealth? Discover The Secrets Today! The Power of Positive Affirmations

Have you ever caught yourself saying to yourself something like ‘I can’t do this’ or ‘I don’t have enough energy to do this anymore’, ‘I’ll never finish this’ and so on. These are typical comments from many people’s internal dialogue and they reflect the deep seated beliefs in a person’s sub-conscious mind that they have about themselves which can be very limiting to the development of a person’s life. For example, imagine trying to learn a new language when you have the inner sub-conscious belief of ‘I’m a slow learner’, despite your best efforts to learn a new language it is unlikely that you are going to be able to do so very easily. It is not your study technique; teacher or text book that needs changing it is your beliefs. This is the point at which positive affirmations can play a role. By using positive affirmations you can reverse the negative beliefs that are preventing you from learning a language or any other task and thus remove them as a barrier completely and turn them into a strong point enabling your development rather than restricting it. Discover How To Combine Positive Affirmations With The Law Of Attraction To Get What YOU Want Fast – Start Today! ______In the case of the language learner we might use a few different positive affirmations such as: “I am able to pick up new languages easily” “I am a fast language learner” “I can speak (insert language) fluently” If you replaced your old limiting beliefs with these your progress would undoubtedly accelerate dramatically and it is not difficult to see why. Instead of wasting unnecessary time and energy battling against yourself you could focus 100% on the task at hand namely learning a language. Just take a look at what Muhammed Ali (Video clip below right) used as his positive affirmation, he was forever saying ‘I am the greatest’ and many people would agree that is what he became! Yet again it proves the old adage of thoughts become things. ______Replacing The Negative Beliefs This of course is the crux of the entire matter. How exactly do you use an affirmation to replace your old beliefs? Well there are a few things you can do to first pave the way. First of all in order to make yourself open to accepting new beliefs it can be helpful to acknowledge where your barriers to them may lay which can make it much easier to neutralise and replace. In the above case of a language learner it may be that at school you did not do very well in languages and so therefore have adopted this belief. Perhaps at school they were in lower ability groups for learning French and German and left school without having particularly mastered either of these which might have been due to simple lack of motivation, poor teaching or any of a number of other reasons. Having realised that they are not actually a poor language learner, they only perceived that they were , this makes it much easier to soak in a new positive belief regarding the subject. Sometimes you may not be able to track down the origins of the negative belief, you may not want to or you may not have any concrete beliefs in the particular area that you are focussing on. In such cases you may simply process with the process of re-educating yourself via the power of positive affirmations process outlined below. ______What is the Positive Affirmation Process? There is no magic formula but it has generally been found that positive affirmations replace negative beliefs fastest when: • They are repeated aloud daily with conviction • They are written down • They are said by looking yourself in the eye in a mirror • They are sung • They are written in the present tense (no future tenses!) • Visualise yourself being successful at the same time Putting aside a certain time slot per day or building it into your daily routine will help you to keep remembering to repeat the affirmations daily. Perhaps when you are showering or getting dressed, this means you are not taking anytime from your daily routine, it is a positive way to start the day and you will be in close proximity to a mirror. ______How Long Will It Take To Change A Belief? Well, that question depends on a variety of factors including: How deeply entrenched the original belief is in the sub-conscious mind. • How open you are to change. • How much effort you put into the affirmation process. • The effectiveness of your chosen affirmations. • The perceived ease of the achievement of the chosen affirmation • And a few more besides. However, positive affirmations do work, especially if used consistently with passion on a regular daily basis. When the affirmation brings about a sense of uneasiness this generally indicates a high degree of resistance, however rest assured with persistence, the belief can be changed. ______How Can I Create My Own Positive Affirmations? First of all identify the areas in your life that want to improve. Typically they are things like career, relationships, sports, health and so on but the only limit is your imagination. Then create a short sentence that emphasises the positive about how you would like your life to be. For example if we were talking about careers: “I have a wonderfully rewarding and fulfilling career.” It is best to keep positive affirmations short and easy to memorise, aswell as in the present tense as the future never comes so if your affirmation is in the future tense that is where the outcome will always remain…in the future. Here are a few positive affirmations relating to money to give you an idea: I attract money! I can make tons of money Making money is easy I know how to make money I make money easily Money comes easily to me Every day I make more money I know what to do to make money Money flows to me I enjoy making money Money is easy to make I am a Money Magnet As you can see they are very simple, easily to memorise and can be chanted, written or visualisedwith out too much difficulty. A few positive affirmations you might like to try are: I am a positive person I am optimistic I can find the positive in any situation I see positive points first I see opportunities everywhere I relish fresh challenges People admire my positive outlook I always expect to succeed I can do anything I set my mind to I believe in myself I am an optimist I think positive I am a positive person ______Side note… “I am…” The two most powerful words in the universe. A declaration to the world and universe of exactly who and what you are or what you intend to be. Curiously enough ‘I am’ when repeated over and over again gives you the ‘Ohm’ sound which is an incredibly religious sound held in the highest of esteems by many religions and said to be the first sound of the universe and hence pure creation itself. Creation is an ongoing process, one which we are involved in every moment of our lives. The point is be careful when you use the words ‘I am’ they may be wielding a power greater than you first imagined! I highly recommend therefore that you include it any positive affirmation you intend to use. I knew there was a reason why McDonalds chose their latest slogan ‘I’m loving it’. It must surely be better to brainwash yourself than to be brainwashed! Discover How To Combine Positive Affirmations With The Law Of Attraction To Get What YOU Want Fast – Start Today! ______Is There A Quicker Way? Over recent years much research has gone into technologies which bypass the conscious mind which is the part of you that makes you disbelieve or feel uneasy about a new belief/affirmation. Once bypassed the positive affirmation can go directly into the accepting sub-conscious mind. The two most usual ways of achieving this are through subliminal audios and subliminal software. Subliminal audios are generally in the form of music which contains quiet positive affirmations in the background which cannot be consciously heard but are easily heard by the sub-conscious mind. Subliminal software works by flashing up positive affirmations on your computer screen at a very fast speed which again means that the conscious mind is unable to observe it, yet it can be taken in by the subconscious mind. I have personally had good experiences with these types of technology and these are inexpensive and readily available from our store, for anyone interested here is the link. ______In Conclusion Creating your own positive affirmations and putting them to use in your daily life is easy so long as you have the discipline to stick with it and don’t mind challenging and questioning your current beliefs. Be aware of the power of your thoughts and words, they cannot be taken back and be particularly aware of the power of ‘I am’. The apparent shortcuts of subliminal audio and software technology can help you through this process if so desired. The following poem by Frank Outlaw sums this article up really well: Watch your thoughts, for they become words. Watch your words, for they become actions. Watch your actions, for they become habits. Watch your habits, for they become character. Watch your character, for it becomes your destiny. ______lancearmstrong inspiration, lance armstrong positive thinking, lance armstrong tour de france, recover from cancer, testicular cancer recovery Three Hot Tips To ‘Think And Grow Rich’

If you’ve ever come across a book by Napoleon Hill called ‘Think and Grow Rich’ you will undoubtedly be aware of the fact that you can deliberately create wealth in your life by manipulating the thoughts in your mind and following through with persistent action. In fact this remarkable book claims to have launched a million millionaires and that is probably no exaggeration either! Anyway here are three tips that I came across recently that can help you super-charge your life to attract riches: This first technique was first introduced to me by than Ted Ciuba a gentleman who re- released the book ‘Think and Grow Rich’ in his own unique style around 5 years ago fully updated and modernised. It’s fair to say he knows a thing or two about attracting wealth. Real -Estate, Stocks, Shares, Internet Marketing you name it he’s made more than his fair share of money using these principles. In your wallet place a 100 dollar note. Every time you walk down the street or past some shops look through the window and mentally spend that 100 dollar note. Just go ahead and see yourself buying whatever it is that you want. By having the bill actually in your wallet you can really gain a feeling of certainty that you can actually have those things. This creates the feeling of abundance and wealth inside you that through the ‘Law of Attraction’ will enable you to automatically attract the wealth that you desire. Whilst doing this you may not actually be wealthy and abundant but you will start to actually feel wealthy and abundant which is what will enable you to become so. The thought first then the thing, remember that is the law. This next technique I came across in a book entitled ‘Ask and it is Given’ by Esther and Jerry Hicks’ (I highly recommend you get your hands on some of there material). In a nutshell it asks you to pay more attention to what you do want i.e. a pay rise, a new sports car, and more sales etcetera than what you do not want. Instead of focusing your thoughts on your job and constantly thinking about how little it pays and how you can only just cover your bills each month, consciously switch your thoughts to thinking about the new job and pay rise you are going to get shortly. Do not focus on the lack of wealth, instead focus on the presence of wealth. This ensures that your mind is starting to feel wealthy and in doing so can utilize the law of attraction to naturally bring you that money. This process need to be made habitual and is an ongoing process. The third hot wealth tip is a very simple way of utilizing free time more proficiently. Ask yourself this….do you ever let your thoughts wander and drift along aimlessly without consciously controlling them? If so then you are missing out on valuable wealth attracting time. Here is an easy way to immediately develop positive wealth attracting thought habits. Start by saying to yourself ‘What I’d really like is….’ then go right ahead and finish the sentence concentrating on really seeing the object of your desire in your possession. Once you have done this repeat the statement with a new desire and then go ahead and list as many objects of desire as you can, each time really see them in your minds eye. Again here we are using the ‘Law of Attraction’ to enhance and improve our life. At first this may feel awkward but you will soon notice that a thought will always attract a similar thought so you should be easily able to string together a long line of positive wealth attracting thoughts. Make a mental note of how long you made the list and next time try and better this tally. Use this technique as often as possible and try and make it at a daily habit, maybe on the commute to work each day. So there you have it, three sure fire ways to attract wealth into your life. However just reading this article won’t help….actually putting the words into practice will! Visualize then actualize that is the key, enough said. Steps To Success In Positive Thinking

Why must we be positive? Well, all thought is creative and as such a thought repeated often enough tends to come into being through our thoughts, words and deeds. therefore a negative mind-set will almost inevitably produce negative results whereas a positive thinking mind-set can produce a life filled with the things you desire which is what this site is all about helping readers do. Take a look at the situation in your life now: your health, your finances, your lifestyle, the good and the bad things. All of this you have created. What you are living now is a reflection on your thoughts of the past. Now if what you are looking at doesn’t exactly fit what you would really want then maybe it is time to look deeper and consider your thoughts and how you let them lead you this position. Discover How To Combine Positive Thinking And The Law Of Attraction To Get What YOU Want – Fast! Thoughts become things. Don’t believe me… stand back for a moment, do you notice any bad situations in your life currently? If the answer is yes, think back a few months. What were your thoughts about this situation at that time? Were they negative thoughts of worry, fear and doubt? If so, then your thoughts directly contributed to your negative situation. Realizing and diffusing this spiral is the first step in using positive thinking in your life. Thoughts become things. Thoughts become things is one of the greatest statements you can ever understand and come to grips with. Why? Because you can consciously choose your thoughts, so it must follow that you can consciously control what appears in your life. If you follow this you are now on the right track. ______

Harnessing The Power Of Positive Thinking Tips: 1) Realize that you create your life from the inside out. Remember this saying: “If I do not go within, I go without.” Take time out for yourself each day if possible. Use it to reflect on your life and appreciate the great things that you already have! Plan sensibly your targets for the future. Meditate and clear your mind of all the unnecessary thoughts so that you can focus on what you do want to achieve more clearly. Time spent doing this is not a waste of time that could be spent working or doing something else more profitable. It is in fact an investment. You may well find that you become more productive and have more inspired ideas. Furthermore by looking after your own mental health in this way you are honouring yourself and saying to yourself that yes I am worth looking after, I am special…and you are! 2) Observe your thoughts, see them come into your mind’s eye. If they are negative or destructive thoughts consciously drop them. Yes, you can consciously choose a better thought, just let it go, refocus on a new one. Negative thinking is a habit that may well have become habitual to you through the influences of society but you can change this habit and relatively quickly if you have the desire to. Simply choose a new thought to focus on and you’ll be surprised how one good thought will more often that not bring rise to another positive thought, in much the same way as the links on a chain. 3) Start to visualize. See yourself in your mind’s eye in the situation or in possession of whatever it is you wish to attain. This helps you focus and stay on course to achieve your goals and seemingly helps things to fall into place for you a bit more easily. Don’t believe this works? Go and pick up a few autobiographies of famous sports people from both current day and yesteryear and I guarantee that if they talk about how they win they will more often than not talk about visualisation/imagination or something else along the same lines. The body cannot tell the difference between an event formed in your mind and one lived out so by making the brain feel that you have achieved your goals. You are thinking the exact thoughts that will bring that eventuality about. Pretty cool stuff hey. 4) Be thankful and don’t worry. Look around you. There are so many wonderful things, not least of which is you! You are an amazing individual regardless of your current situation. Do not worry and know that everything you are going through is preparing you for your goals to materialize. So keep in mind your targets always and don’t let them go and you will get there. 5) Always focus on what you want, not what you don’t want! What you resist persists simply because you are ploughing your own energy and emotion into it which is really only just feeding that situation. Being positive 100% of the time on paying attention only to your next step on the road to success brings about results a great deal quicker. Why not choose to be positive!
