Developing A Positive Mentality

in #motivational3 years ago (edited)

As a man thinks in his heart, so is he

This is a statement lifted from the Holy Book, and the truth in it is indisputable. Most times, what happens to someone is a direct result of what they have thought in their heart. Here is how it happens. When someone think about a particular thing for long, it will become their predominant thought and when that happens, their choice of actions will be tailored towards that particular line of thought. You see the link? When actions are carried out based on the thought, then the results will follow. So it is right to infer that results are first birthed in the mind.

Since you are now aware that the type of thought you have will directly determine your actions, you should focus on positive thoughts because this is what you need to have a positive mindset and with a positive mindset, positive actions will not be difficult to undertake and they will ultimately bring positive result.

Everyone has a freewill delivered to them and that includes the freewill to create their own thoughts. However, it is worthy to note that you may have a choice of your thoughts and of course, your actions, but when the actions go forth, you may not have choice of what the results will be. If what you earnestly desire is a positive result then it is in your own interest to develop a positive mentality that will lead to the positive actions that will create a positive result. The way to develop a positive mindset is by aligning your mind to think positively.

Thinking positively does not mean an absence of negative occurrence in the environment. Even in the midst of the darkness in the world, you can choose to remain positive in your thoughts if you want to. Your thoughts should be able to point you to the light in the darkness and not to introduce you to more darkness.

You cannot underestimate the ability of the mind to create things. The only thing we can do is to point our minds to the right direction and you will be surprised at the thoughts it can conceive. The mind's thought, just like a seed that is planted, will produce after their own type. Keep this particular verse at the back of your mind, as culled from the Holy Scriptures:

You reap what you sow

Yes, if you sow the thoughts that are positively inclined, you will reap mindset is also positively inclined. If you sow the same kind of positive mindset, what you will reap will not be short of positive actions. Just to let you know that there are many things that do not happen by chance nor by coincidence but by the actions (arising from your thoughts) that you perform.

As a good farmer is responsible for the welfare of their farm - the crops they plant, the nurturing, etc, you should also be responsible for what goes on in your mind. Note this fact: what goes on inside you (which is your mind) is a direct determinant of what happens around you.
