We shall be considering the potency embedded in the attitude of "positive thinking". There is no disproving to the fact that a greater percentage; if not not all; of your life's outcome is dependent on your dominant thought.
Your thought, as it may, is an important determinant in structuring and creating the kind of world you desire.
According to Dr Kenneth Copeland:
The greatest challenge the world is facing is not finances, but mindset. - Dr Copeland [Paraphrased from the book of Dr Taiwo Odukoya; Overcoming stagnation]
More often than not, by reason of some glaring unpleasant situations, we may allow our sense of reasoning to be compromised. This is not surprising because the first attack of any negative situation is launched to the mind. And if it can get your mind, then it has gotten a greater percentage of "you". This is because, the totality of the real "you" is a direct makeup of your dominant thought.
Before I continue; may I remind us that every great invention we have today in our contemporary world started as just a little imagination (seed) in the heart. But just like the biological seed, your imagination (idea; in this context) needs nurturing and grooming for it to find expression and manifestation.
Remember this:
What distinguishes the successful from others is the idea they trade with
And it is also worthy to note that the emptiness of the mind is worse than the emptiness of the pocket. So what do I advocate as a panacea for this? Very simple: Think your way through; don't stop thinking. By so doing, you are replacing your EMPTY MIND with an OPEN MIND.
This is how it works: Your dominant thought influences your actions. Your actions define your character. Then the summation of your character designs your future. So you see; it all has its root in the mind.
Just like I have always said, and permit me to reiterate it again here:
Look ( with the eye of the mind) beyond what you can see. And do not allow the "negative" situation to compromise your sense of "positive" thinking. @samminator
As a way of conclusion, may I remind us that your "now" is a direct product of your thoughts "before". But there's a great news, you can shapen your "tomorrow" with the thought you cultivate "today".
So guys, my advice here is; keep thinking aright.
@samminator cares
Thanks for reading
Sure, I will continue thinking aright. Nice post.
Thanks for the comment nwannem
You are right, we should think positive. Thanks.
Yeah we should
Ofcourse positive thoughts are needed to ensure a blissful life.
There is a school of thought that states the law of attraction which states that what you think of yourself is what comes to you.
Optimism is key
Exactly. Well said
Yea thinking right does it right ....... Nice post from you
Thanks a lot
The mind is very important. Like @samstickkz implicitly said at the Ibadan Steemit meet-up, the moment the thought is conceived, successful has already begun (while talking about when @ejemai made the breaking point for @stach)
