Scores of people and scores of ideas, which one do you pick and which one do you let go? I am talking of a way that could better our lives. Some say stay fit while others say get creative, whatever the mode, it is not universally effective! And if you are looking for a dictum that could affect people from all walks of life, I’d say settle for something that is simple and rife.
It’s called Positive Thinking! Everyone can practice it – the young and the old alike, men and women, the energetic or the lethargic.
It’s simple and you don’t have to go out of your way but the power it has is here to stay. I remember a time in my life when things were grey. And I slumped deeper and deeper into depression. Nothing I did or said seemed to be right, and
I couldn’t find anything that was chirpy and bright..
That’s when my doc said something about being positive. He took a glass of water up to the middle and asked me what I saw, so I said a half empty glass. To which he replied that it could also be seen as a half filled glass. That was an eye opener for sure and in due of course of time, I began to look at things from a different perspective.
I realized that the power of positive thinking made me see things in a different light. I began not to brood over the darkness of the tunnel but focus on the light at the end of it. .
Positive thinking didn’t make the problems go away, rather they made me see the solution that helped me through the day. And thus began my new journey where everything was chirpy and bright. And I say this to everyone I meet, you can achieve anything if you have the will and the might. That’s the power of positive thinking, the power to overlook the darkness and see the light!
