Sometimes it’s hard to stay positive even when we know that our mind is the most powerful part of our body. I have always considered myself a positive person even when things don’t go my way, I’d think......... something better is just around the corner for me and it’s just making space for it to arrive!
Nevertheless holding onto positive thoughts and experiences is not always easy when life sends you several curve balls out of the blue, it’s like any other faith you believe in you start to question it. Consequently we Lose sight of that belief and concentrate only on the problem instead of thinking positively that all will turn out well in the end.
Practising positive thinking as often as we can also strengthens our ability to cope better with tough times. It took me awhile to learn and understand that thoughts drive feelings, not the other way around. There are still times in my life when old self defeating patterns of thinking reassert themselves, so do the painful feelings that come with them.
Now though, I can see those patterns for what they are. For me, that’s the essential gift of positive thinking, recognising that my thoughts are unbalanced and that I need to do something about it, and trusting that I can!
What about you, what helps you stay positive? I hope you share your thoughts on positive thinking.
