The Power of Staying Positive
As Blessed as You Want to Be

by Madisyn Taylor

Positive thinking dramatically increases your chances of success in any endeavor.


Our thoughts are not simply ethereal pieces of information that enter our minds and then disappear. The words and ideas that we think can shape our lives and drive us toward success and happiness or failure and distress. How you think and feel can have a profound effect on your ability to recognize opportunity, how well you perform, and the outcome of the goals that you've set for yourself. When you maintain an optimistic outlook and make an effort to harbor only positive thoughts, you begin to create the circumstances conducive to you achieving what you desire. You feel in control and few of life's challenges seem truly overwhelming because it is in your nature to expect a positive conclusion. An optimistic mind is also an honest one. Staying positive does not mean that you ignore difficulties or disregard limitations. Instead, it means spending time focusing only on the thoughts that are conducive to your well-being and progress.

Positive thinking dramatically increases your chances of success in any endeavor. When you're sure that you are worthy and that achievement is within your grasp, you start to relax and look for solutions rather than dwelling on problems. You are more likely to imagine positive situations or outcomes and disregard the thoughts related to giving up, failure, or roadblocks. What the mind expects, it finds. If you anticipate joy, good health, happiness, and accomplishment, then you will experience each one. Thinking positively may sound like a simple shift in attention – and it is – but it is a mind-set that must be developed. Whenever a negative thought enters your mind, try immediately replacing it with a constructive or optimistic one. With persistence, you can condition your mind to judge fleeting, self-defeating thoughts as inconsequential and dismiss them.

It is within your power to become as happy, content, or successful as you make up your mind to be. Staying positive may not have an immediate effect on your situation, but it will likely have a profound and instantaneous effect on your mood and the quality of your experiences. In order for positive thinking to change your life, it must become your predominant mind-set. Once you are committed to embracing positive thinking, you'll start believing that everything that you want is within your grasp.


DailyOM Course Spotlight

Heal Your Love & Relationship Karma
by Sara Wiseman

"Every relationship in your life is a karmic crossing--a chance to learn soul lessons through the opening of your earth heart." The task of the spiritual psychic is to enter the sacred space within, where we acknowledge ourselves as one of One, and awaken to the possibility of miracles. That said, the task of the spiritual psychic is also to live fully as an earth being, in connected and profound relationship to others, and to the experiences these relationships bring. This means looking deeply and carefully at who shows up in our lives--and what we're here to learn from them. In this course, you are invited to dive deeply into your relationships at the most profound level--those karmic crossings you experience with partner, parent, child, friend, teacher, colleague and acquaintance. For it is in this simple act of connecting deeply to the Divine, that all things can be shifted, moved, created and transformed.
