Positive thinking from the top down, Are you struggling to make progress in life or in any particular field? Do you seem to be constantly hitting the same problems? Are you getting frustrated at your lack of progress. Well if the answer is yes then give yourself this positive thinking mental check-up.
First remind yourself that nothing can happen in your life without it first appearing as an image in your mind. By this I am referring to the undisputable law: ‘the thought first and then the thing’. The classic example usually referred to is the chair. Many years ago one man got tired of sitting on his heels and thus grew a desire for what we now call a chair.
From his initial desire sprang the vision/picture/image in his mind of himself sitting comfortably with a straight back with his legs dangling off the edge of a comfortable solid thing. From this image he was then able to construct something resembling a chair. Of course their have since been further visions, ideas and images which have also materialized in front of us; sofas, armchairs and so on. The point is if you are trying to create something or improve any aspect of your life you first need to change your idea about that thing.
See yourself in your minds eye in the situation that you wish to be in. Feel how great it is, see yourself in that place where everything is the way you desire. Do not worry about how you will get there just hold that image in your mind. Focus on every detail of that image including all six senses. If you are celebrating closing a big business deal imagine the taste of the champagne, hear the clinks of the glasses, feel the sense of elation in your body and physically see the signature confirming the deal being sealed.
The method that you will use to achieve that goal will become apparent once you have this image firmly fixed in your mind and backed with your belief and faith. When you get the idea or plan that you believe will help you achieve your goals write it down! Writing both your goals and plan down will significantly increase your chances of success. Doing this literally starts to manifest them in to life, it brings them on to the physical plane where they can begin to grow. Finally, add perseverance and faith. Everyday hold your vision in your mind and do not worry about any minor setbacks that you may have on the way. View these as natural obstacles that you will overcome on the way to materializing your vision. Keep playing your mental movie through your mind and have a think about these two quotes:
‘Whatever the mind can conceive and believe it can achieve’ – Napoleon Hill and:
‘Faith is the ability to see the invisible and believe the incredible’ – C, Smithison And these few quotes from Wallace Wattles are also certainly worth bearing in mind:
‘Every thought of form, held in thinking Substance, causes the creation of the form, but always, or at least generally, along lines of growth and action already established.’
‘Men get rich by doing things in a Certain Way; and in order to do so, men must become able to think in a Certain Way. A man’s way of doing things is the direct result of the way he thinks about things. ‘
‘To think health when surrounded by the appearances of disease, or to think riches when in the midst of appearances of poverty, requires power; but he who acquires this power becomes a MASTER MIND. He can conquer fate; he can have what he wants.’
‘Since belief is all important, it behooves you to guard your thoughts; and as your beliefs will be shaped to a very great extent by the things you observe and think about, it is important that you should command your attention.’
“The Creative Power within us makes us into the image of that to which we give our attention.” So, regardless of your current circumstance and apparent failings or under-achievements so far in life remember that all you are now is a product of all you have thought in the passed. With this in mind first change your thoughts in order to change your life and also remember:
‘What the mind truly believes the body inevitably delivers’
There can be no doubt that your life can be dramatically enhanced by getting your thinking correct. Try it and see what happens!
