About the book : Discovering the power of positive thinking
” Discover your thoughts, thereafter discover your surroundings’ ‘.
The world is confined with negative thoughts. At every moment, at every level ,we are far away from positive thoughts. Positive thoughts means the Thoughts of God. To join yourself positively with the teachings of God. There are many steps to discover the positive thinking ,which are written below:
1. Speak and implement
Firstly, start speaking in a positive way . By this habit ,you will get positive thoughts in your mind because your ear hears everything that you say .
What you think,
What you speak,
It depends upon your implementation.
THINK GOOD, SPEAK GOOD.
2. Happiness
Everyday is a new day . It’s your choice to consider whether the day is bad or good . If you say happy day. Your ear hears this ,your mind hears this . It will help you to work the whole day with these words.
What do you say about happiness in your words?
To cherish everything, not to face guilt . Happiness is your zeal to explore something more . Happiness is what you feel with the feelings of others . Take at least 15 minutes of your life to think : the best gift of your life . Then you realize ,it’s life , it’s the bloom of nature . God made the entire universe. Nobody masters this world . You are unique . It’s a good saying, ” You cannot stop birds flying from your heads , but you can stop them from building nests over your head ” . Just like , you cannot prevent the thoughts from coming in your mind , but you can stop to implement them .
3. Situation makes you complicated
There is an example:- When sorrow is in your life , your faith on the repelled. There is a lady in my hometown whose husband drinks every time. Her thoughts made her negative. But when her husband start to going to the temple and realized about the importance of his life and family . She would gain such a positive attitude that she even spread God’s thought in her surroundings.
“Behind the darkest clouds ,the sun shines . Just like after the clouds of negative thoughts, the positive thoughts shines”.
4. Ocular , Your Vision
Our vision changes every aspect . Sometimes we think we are no better than others . We are like insects , created by God .
It’s true,” What you think that you become.”
If you think you are not so beautiful,then this thought frames your image as dull in your eyes. Physically, mentally, socially hold your image of what you want to be.
Incidents confined your life with boredom ,
Happiness confines your life with love .
5. Health
Healthy mind always gives healthy thoughts .Calm , spirit , truth are the symbols of your thoughts. Give breaks to your life and understand your habits because no one understands your habits better than you .
Stress is like a family member. The reasons responsible for your stress are your hate ,anger, envy and guilt . Keep your mind relaxed in these conditions. If you are able to do this then you are a perfect genius.
6.Planning
Each day makes your life new . Each morning gives you a new chance to enjoy your life . So , don’t waste any day . Make perfect plans to complete yourself every day . Develop your interest in yourself . By this you can conquer your loneliness.
Every day gives us a new sunshine,
Make us Happy to do something positive.
I , me , we are words but one you develop the habit of positivity , there is no difference.
7. Giving and choice
Giving is not simpler than taking. This whole world thinks that “I” is the master of destination . But with the worship of God , you start thinking that every choice is yours . Competency is not better than harmony . Flexibility is not better than stability. But the colours of this world force us to think about the choices . You have many choices, but you must choose one . Which one do you choose? That makes your life comfortable , that provides you with everything which you imagine in your life . That’s not possible .
Choice may create differences. But the choice of God shows you the straight forward path in which you realise who you are , what’s your work in this world . Thinking and the path of God develops your thoughts in such a way that you make your life something special .
Sometimes we think we can cheat blind one , but there we go through the mistake because we indulge in such a world in which we forget how to treat others . When we think this ….then it’s yours . This may be possible with your positive thinking.
8. Wait and Watch
Sometimes our plans never work for which we start blaming others and even god . Why do we not think at which place we made a mistake ? So , always wait for the good to come out of regrets . Your experience makes you happy one day . After sometime when we are able to achieve this , then we got realise exactly our path of journey. This is the time when we need to maintain patience and our belief in God .
How to make your faith strong?
See yourself , what you find:- some tension ; which tension : family ….. Not at all …..then which : society …..fame…….respect ……
All these things make our life so stressed that we always forget who we are ……kindly forget society ……when you see the society how the people survive …… how things have gone …. then you are not able to develop your faith in yourself …….thoughts don’t need any ties or bonds …. they are free ….. I remember you cannot stop thoughts coming in your mind but you can stop them from being implemented. Develop your faith in God firstly thereafter in yourself. This is the surviving method that you are right and you are positive in this society.
Be positive , think positive, make others positive . First step is yours , the last may be the whole . Seek your courage in depth and find the glory of your thoughts.
Norman Vincent Peale’s and Ruth Stafford Peale’s books teach us the value of a good thinker. Practice happy and positive thinking everyday and every time. Your mind is yours ,your thoughts make you a great one .
Humans need to become positive not only towards him/ her but towards nature . Then it looks like a perfect world . Then we are able to develop the way of positive thinking.
