The way to happiness Keep your heart free from hate, your mind from worry. Live simply, expect little. Give much? Scatter sunshine. Forget yourself. Think of others.
Try this for a week and you’ll be surprised. Norman Vincent People was an American minister, an offer of one of the world’s best, widely recognised motivational speakers in the 20th century. His most popular book, The Power of Positive Thinking, has sold over 5 million copies worldwide. And takes the Christian perspective and real world approach to a positive psychology. Since Peel was a scientist, many mental experts disregarded the ideas from his book. And it received a lot of both favourable and highly critical feedback. However, it’s hard to deny the real world impact his ideas have had. For himself being living proof that they work. After a long and by any measure successful life, he died at age 95 on Christmas Eve in 1993. It’s not every day that you get to learn from someone who received the Presidential Medal of Freedom, so let’s not waste time, shall we? Here are three lessons to help you think more positively.
1.start with confidence and what your problem is Shrink
2. Your world is nothing more than the thoughts you have about your experiences.
3.In order to live worry free, first imagine a worry free life .
- Lesson one, believe in yourself and visualise your goals to see how small your problems really are. Yes, confidence is important because if you feel inferior, you act inferior. We new Confidence alone doesn’t solve all problems, after all. It’s not the same as competence. And telling a kid who’s horrible math that she’s great won’t make her study more for the next test, however. The case of believing in yourself that Peel makes is one that we’ve all experienced. The so fulfilling prophecy. It’s a common idea from self help Books to Napoleon Hill that already addressed it 80 years ago. When you start a new job and go in on the first day thinking that no one would like you that you probably screw up and not fitting well. Well guess what? Your behave in a way that make sure it comes true.
Even worse, when you then get back the feedback that you were right, this drives even more negative thoughts, thus starting a vicious cycle. It is up to you to actively change your faults and believe that you can bring value where you go. Peel suggests an exercise to help you do that, which happens to be backed by science. Visualise your goals and the positive outcomes you want. What should your life look like in six months? Which goals do you want to achieve? They contrast those by visualising the problems and obstacles that you might face on the way. This is called mental contrasting and has been proven to cause changes in behaviour that last weeks with his letters. A few minutes worth of exercise. - Lesson 2. Your attitude determines your Retire life. This quote really struck me. You bold is nothing more than the thoughts you have about your experiences. Of course all the problems in your life are real, and yes, so with them might take a few years to solve, like debt or a serious illness. But how you react to those problems is entirely up to you. You might not be able to solve those problems at the push of a button, but your attitude is something you can change from one second to the next. Your world, your reality is only determined, but what you think about with everything you experience in life. For example, if you leave your house tomorrow morning and you’re almost hit by a car which breaks the last second. You can treat this as a bad sign to spend the rest of the day walking around afraid of everything and anything. Alternatively, you could take this experience as a wonderful gift, a miracle. And little life to the fullest, injuring every single second the day and being grateful. Don’t choose negative thoughts when you can choose positive ones.
- Lesson three, imagine your life. Free of worry to become less concerned about the future. Here’s a super metre hack for worrying less. Imagine yourself. As a worry free person in the future, just imagine that it’s possible for you to live without Worry will take a lot of your current worries away. Just imagining that is possible for you to live without worry will take all of your current worries away. Worrying is a major source of stress and thus often leads to heart disease, arthritis and other sickness which cause your life expectancy to go down. So it’s new best interest to eliminate it wherever possible. Close your eyes. Look into the future and imagine yourself a few months or a few years from now, living free from all the worries that currently plague you. And you feel much better when you open your eyes again. Pew causes the training your mind. And it’s specifically helpful for going to sleep, because then positive thoughts will sink into your subconscious instead of negative ones.
