' Positive thinking and
negative thinking are attitudes. They are points of view, and show the way
people handle their affairs.'
'Clear thinking produces definite results.'
' Human mind is like a room with so many windows. You may darken your room or
let the light get in choice is yours.
"'Fill your life with light, happiness ,hope, feeling of security and strength,
and soon your life will reflect these qualities,"
" Positive and negative are directions. Which direction do you choose?"
" The difference between can and cannot are only three letters. Three letters
that determine your
life's direction."
What is Positive Thinking?
Positive thinking is positive attitude toward life. Positive thinking plays an
important role in positive
psychology .A person who thinks positively trusts he or she can overcome any
hurdle, difficulty or problem in life.
Positive thinking is actually approaching life's challenges in a positive manner
,teaching yourself
how to use your mental tools and inner powers to create a life of happiness,
success, fulfillment and inner peace.
With positive attitude one experiences nice and pleasant feelings. Positive
thinking makes you more
energetic and confident and your health is improved in a better way. It makes
your every action even
your body language more powerful and makes you more confident - confidence that
will lead you to a greater success.
You know we are subconsciously attracted to the well mannered and well groomed
people and whose thoughts are positive and who have nice feelings for you. I
have heard wise people saying:
"laugh and the whole world will laugh with you .Cry and you will cry alone."
In other words we like to be in the company of positive people and preferably
avoid negative ones.
Negativity creates negative thoughts , unhappy feelings or moods and bad conduct
.When the mind is on negative track, certain kinds of poisons are released into
the blood which cause negativity and more
unhappy feelings.
Benefits of Positive thinking
1- Positive thoughts broaden your mental horizon and makes you feel confident
anyway. On the other hand negative emotions or thoughts narrow your mind and
limit your thought process.

for use later in life.
3-Positive emotions or thoughts prompt to build skills that are valuable and
beneficial in everyday life.
4-Positive emotions broaden your sense of possibilities to build new skills and
resources that can provide value in other areas of your life. Negative emotions
do the opposite.

trick. Now it's entirely up to you what things work well for you. May be it's
playing a musical instrument or spending some good time with a friend or carving
something on a piece of wood.
2-The power of positive thinking and optimism change your life style. Be
optimist, change your thoughts, see the positive side if you want positive

moral support to rise and shine in their lives. Such like things will give you
inner satisfaction .

parts of life. Nobody is perfect. Your failure at present moment will lead you
