The Power of Negative Thinking The Power of Negative Thinking
For some reason, most people find it easier to think in a negative way than in a positive manner. It seems that some effort is needed to think positive thoughts, whereas negative thoughts come easily and uninvited. This has much to do with education and the environment one has been living in.
In order to understand how positive thinking works, and how to use it efficiently, it is important to understand the power of negative thinking.
If you have been brought up in a happy and positive atmosphere, where people value success and self-improvement, then it will be easier for you to think positively and expect success. If you have been brought up under poor or difficult situations, you will probably go on expecting difficulties and failure.
From an early age people let outside influences shape their minds. They view everything through their predominant mental attitude. If their thoughts are positive, that is fine, but if they are negative, their lives and circumstances will probably mirror these thoughts.
If you believe that you are going to fail, you will unconsciously sabotage every opportunity to succeed. If you are afraid of meeting new people or having close relationships, you will do everything to avoid people and relationships, and then complain that you are lonely and nobody loves you.
Do you often think about difficulties, failure and disasters Do you keep thinking about the negative news you have seen on the TV or read in the newspapers
Do you see yourself stuck and unable to improve your life or your health Do you frequently think that you do not deserve happiness or money, or that it is too difficult to get them If you do, then you will close your mind, see no opportunities, and behave and react in such ways, as to repel people and opportunities. You let the power of negative thinking rule your life.
The mind does not usually judge or examine thoughts and opinions before accepting them. If what it hears, sees and reads is always negative, it accepts this as the standard way of thinking and behavior.
The media constantly bombards the mind with a lot of information about disasters, catastrophes, wars and other negative happenings. This information sinks into the subconscious mind, and let the power of negative thinking grow. By occupying the mind with negative thoughts and expectations one radiate negative energy into the surrounding world, thus creating and recreating more negativity, failures and disasters.
The mind can be directed towards positive thinking or negative thinking. The power of thoughts is a neutral power. The way one thinks determines whether the results are positive and beneficial or negative and harmful. It is the same of energy acting in different ways.
Persistent inner work can change habits of thoughts. You must be willing to put energy and time to avoid negative thinking and pursue positive thinking, in order to change your mental attitude.
Each time you catch yourself thinking a negative thought, change it into a positive one.
If you catch yourself visualizing failure, switch to visualizing success.
If you hear yourself repeating negative words, switch to positive ones.
If you hear yourself saying, I cannot , say to yourself, I can .
Do you repeat useless and unnecessary negative words and phrases in your mind Change them to positive ones.
Open your mind to positive attitude, happenings and events. Expect them and think about them, and soon you life will change for the better. Decide that from today, from this very moment, you are leaving negative thinking behind, and starting on the way towards positive thinking and behavior. It is never too late. Soon your life will turn into a fascinating, wonderful journey.
Setting Your Goals - Easier Said, Easily Done
The basics of setting a goal is an open secret known by top-caliber athletes, successful businessmen and businesswomen and all types of achievers in all the different fields. The basics of setting goals give you short-term and long-term motivation and focus. They help you
set focus on the acquisition of required knowledge and help
you to plan and organize your resources and your time so
that you can get the best out of your life.
Setting clearly defined short term and long term goals will
enable you to measure your progress and achieve personal
satisfaction once you have successfully met your goals.
Charting your progress will also enable you to actually see
the stages of completion leading to the actual realization
of your goals. This eliminates the feeling of a long and
pointless grind towards achieving your goal.
Your self-confidence and level of competence will also
improve as you will be more aware of your capabilities as
you complete or achieve your goals.
The basics of goal settings will involve deciding what you
really want to do with your personal life and what short
term and long term goals you need to achieve it. Then you
have to break down goals into the smaller and manageable
targets that you must complete in your way to achieving your
lifetime targets. Once you have your list waste no time in
tackling your goals.
A good way to have a manageable list is to have a daily and
weekly set of goals. By doing this you will be always in the
position of going towards you life plan goals. Everyday will
give you the opportunity to fulfill a certain goal giving
you the feeling of accomplishment.
Here are some pointers that should be taken into
consideration in setting goals and achieving them.
Attitude plays a very big role in setting and achieving your
goals. You must ask yourself if any part of you or your
mind holding you back towards completing your simplest
goals? If there are any part of your behavior that is being
a hindrance or puts your plans into disarray? If you do have
problems in these areas then the immediate thing to do is to
address this problem. Solutions may include a visit to a
doctor or psychiatrist to control your emotions.
Careers are made by good time management practice. Failing
in a career is often attributed to bad time management.
Careers require a lot from an individual which often makes
the career the life of the individual. Plan how far do you
want to go into your career.
Education is key in achieving your goals. If your goals
require you to have a certain kind of degree or require a
certain specialization or demand a certain skill to be
developed, make plans in getting the appropriate education.
Your family should never be left out of your plans. If you
are just starting out then you have to decide if you want to
be a parent or when you want to be a parent. You also have
to know if you really would be a good parent and how well
would you relate to extended family members
Personal financial situations also play a major role in
achieving your goals. Have a realistic goal on how much you
really want to earn. You also must be able to create plans
or stages by which you will be able to reach your earning
potential.
Physically gifted individuals may be able to achieve sports
related goals like being in the National Basketball
association or National Football League. Determining your
physical capabilities should be one of your priorities.
Physical limitations could however be conquered with proper
planning.
As the saying goes -'All work and no play makes Jack a dull
boy', or something to that effect, is by all means true down
to the last the letter. Giving yourself a little pleasure:
should be included into your plans.
To start achieving your lifetime goals, set a quarter of a
century plan, then break it down to 5 year plans then break
it down again to 1 year plans, then 6 month plans then
monthly plans, then weekly, then daily.
Then create a things-to-do list for the day.
Always review your plans and prepare for contingencies.
The basics of goal settings should not be so difficult once
you get to be familiar with them.

Why Meditate ?
"Meditation brings wisdom; lack of meditation leaves ignorance. Know well what leads you forward and what holds you back, and choose the path that leads to wisdom."
Meditation is considered an essential practice for those who seek self-knowledge and self-mastery. Why? Basically, meditation brings awareness
of how our minds work. Over time, we become watchers, able to detach from the thoughts and emotions that play out in our minds.
With this detachment, we gain the freedom to choose whether or not to act on our thoughts and emotions. We learn to distinguish between objective reality
and our mental and emotional dramas.
"Only in quiet waters things mirror themselves undistorted. Only in a quiet mind is adequate perception of the world."
