My first personal development guru Duncan McColl constantly told me: "if you don't take personal control of your consciousness other people and events will do it for you". He was right, of course, but , how does one take charge of your thoughts? How does one get into a mindset where positive thinking is your default response?
It's a matter of watching, listening and observing everything you think. If you spend the next 7 days continuously in a state of alertness, watching, listening and observing everything that you think, feel and do you will be amazed at some of the things that you see, hear and observe about the way you think.
But when you have observed yourself you then need to change each negative into a positive in everything that you think and do - click here to see article. This is critical because the point at which positive thinking becomes potent is when it turns into positive speech and behavior. It isn't just the thinking but what you do with the thinking that generates the state of being positive which in its turn leads to personal success.
The act of thinking and behaving "as if ' you are positive at last leads to your becoming positive in thought and deed and then you will be able to be successful in any field of endeavour to which you turn your hand.
The really great point about positive thinking is it's utterly within your control. All you have got to do is to choose to be positive, to choose that you are going to think positively from this moment on and the goals you achieve in your life will become seriously different from today on. Yes, you actually can make a major difference in your life when you simply alter your thinking so that you see everything in a positive light, feel positive in all eventualities and only hear the positive in the speech of yourself and other people.
