THE SECRET OF POSITIVE THINKING

I have a friend who always believed everything would go wrong and guess what?Everything actually went wrong in his life.He performed badly at school,his relationships crumbled and life just didn't seem to be fair to him.His problem?He was attracting these things to himself with his thoughts.You're wondering how?I am going to tell you right about now.
The universe has power.When we were created,the powers were given to us.But the powers work with and only with our thoughts.Yes,our thoughts.The universe is such that if you think of negative things,they are attracted to you,so also if you think of positive things,they are also attracted to you.Let me give you a personal account.
I was holding a glass bulb once,and this thought ran through my head "what if this glass falls and breaks?".Believe me,it was only a split second between my thought and the breaking of the glass bulb.Sometime after that,i was cutting something with a knife and this thought ran through my head "what if this knife cuts me?".Before i finished using the knife,i had to wipe blood of my hand and the floor.I never knew what the problem was then,but looking back now,i know i brought those upon myself just using my thoughts.
Have you not had some negative thoughts in your head that eventually came to pass?Have you also not had positive thoughts in your head that equally came to pass?They are not mere coincidences,they were simply results of your thoughts.
You still don't believe this thing about thoughts bringing things to reality?Take the lives of the great men you know into cognizance.How do they think?Positively or negatively?Do you know Thomas Edison?He was the man that created the light bulb and a host of other inventions.Once in his life time,he was embarking on an experiment and while he was asleep in his house,his lab caught fire.He was called and when he got to the site,he just looked at the damage and a few minutes and went to look for a place to continue his sleep.Now that is positivity.What happened next?The lab he built afterward was far better than the one that got burnt.
Do you know Dr Ben Carson?He's one of the best surgeons in the whole world.He is a positive thinker.He even wrote a book titled 'Think Big'.He believes nothing can ever go wrong and if you look at his life,you'd agree.
Andrew Carnegie,Winston Churchill are great men.You may know their stories and you'd agree with me that they were very successful.The name Carnegie still ring bells.They were positive thinkers.
Just in case you don't know how this works,i'd simplify it illustrating with the magnet.The magnet attracts anything metal to itself right?So,think of your thought as a 'magnet' and the things you think about as 'metals'.If you think of positive things,they are attracted to you because your thought is a magnet and the things you think of are like the metals.So also,if you think of negative things,they are attracted to you.
Many people are facing challenges and do not know how to get themselves out basically because they are having negative thoughts.Many people also are successful because they think positively.The are equipped with the secret.
Positive thinking has helped me alot.Yes,i have and am still applying positive thinking in my life and i am dong well.I am soon going to graduate with a good grade(though i was considered academically dull,even had to repeat twice in secondary school),i already have a job with an oil servicing company,i am intelligent,i am respected by my peers.I just believe nothing can go wrong,and nothing will go wrong.I've got the secret,i've applied it,i have given it to you,please make use of it and you will be grateful you did.
All you need do is think positively.But in case you don't know how to do this,you can use these techniques;
1. Everytime you are faced with a challenge,rather than think you can't get out of it,visualize yourself being free from the challenge.
2. You can even write positive things down on pieces of papers and take them with you everywhere you go.Read them anytime you have the opportunity.
3. Always tell yourself you can do it.
4. Look into the mirror everyday and tell yourself beautiful things,positive things.
If you can do all or some of these,then positive thinking would be a part of you in no time.
If you have contributions or comments,i am always delighted to have them.Feel free to leave comments.

  2. This really is a nice piece.I also have a friend who was a negative thinker.Things hardly went pleasant for him.But thanks to my association with him,because i was able to affect his thinking and he started being positive.There is nothing like being positive.Nice one again.
