Positive thinking is a habit and
you can create it for yourself. It will take some time and you will have to
practice it regularly until it becomes automatic and part of your everyday life but
it is worth as it can really set you free and move you towards your real
purpose. There are plenty of experiences, impressions and assumptions that usually influence your thoughts. Other people’s opinions, criticism, feedback from your
supervisors, social expectations, media, etc. all affect the picture that you
have in mind about yourself.

We all have beliefs; however
beliefs are tricky because they are just psychological barriers and have
nothing to do with reality. Our assumptions about ourselves are mostly based on
other people’s reactions to our existence in the world. If you try to be
objective with yourself and decide to test the beliefs that you have about your
personality, skills or ability, you will see that your true self has not
so much in common with that person who appears as “you” in front of your family, friends or colleagues. Remove the “noise”
(negativity, fears, false beliefs, etc.) and try to examine your thoughts as if
they were another person’s views about herself. It is hard to see yourself as
an outsider but this way and with some time and practice it is possible to be
positive and objective about yourself.
Fear and false assumptions distract
you from being able to focus on the thoughts that can really move you forward.
Change your inner dialogue and approve of yourself. Celebrate your results
every day, no matter how small or big they are. Give some more support to
yourself by letting negativity go. Practice positive thinking every day and
create a new habit that will help you to see and enjoy the whole process called
LIFE.
How will you start praciticing positive thinking?
