What is positive thinking?

You've heard it a hundred times if you've heard it once, "just think positive". What does that mean? How can you think positive when there are so many negative things happening. I'll tell you what I think. Thinking positive is not just a thought process, it is a commitment to a different way of life, it is a process in which the way you think is the way you live. Think about your life, is it what you "thought" it would be? The truth is, it is exactly what you thought it would be. You see it is the way you think and feel about your self, your life, that directs you down the path that You choose. Nobody makes you do, or think, or act in a certain way, it is all YOU! So it is up to You to do something about it. What do you Do? Think Positive! How? That's easy, it's a matter of Remembering the positive times in your life, like when you graduated High School, College, or when you got married, had a child, got your first bike, your first kiss, your first job. Remember how it felt, how it looked, how it smelled, How did You "Feel", I guarantee you, you felt Positive, Elated, Amazed, and Empowered. These feelings are the key to thinking and feeling Positive. They are your Brick and Mortar of the life you want to build. Your ability to remember those feelings when you are feeling down is a sure way to bring you back up! Applying a "Positive Think" as I call it, to the decisions and choices you make throughout your day is how you can turn your life around. Your "Life" is what you think it is, if you think it sucks, then You are guaranteeing it sucks, but just the opposite works also, if you think your life is Great, is Wonderful, is an opportunity around every corner, then it will be as you think it is. You see, it is what you think and feel that truly directs you to the life that you want. What kind of life do you want? One that is dark and dreary, or one that is Bright and full of opportunity! It's your choice, no one can make it for you, you are in control of what you think. Think Positive and you will be positive.
