The Different Steps of Positive Thinking
from:Positive thinking is very powerful. In fact, positive thinking is the one reason why humanity has achieved so much. When you think about it, positive thinking has been behind every major progress that man has made over the years of his existence. It is because of positive thinking that we now enjoy technology today.
Sure, there may have been some questions and doubts that hindered human development, but positive thinking triumphed over these obstacles and made way for progress. Despite of being in evidence throughout man's existence, the power of positive thinking has aroused people's interests only recently.
People are looking for ways to achieve the power of positive thinking. They try to look for steps of positive thinking to help them accomplish their goals. What are the steps of positive thinking that people take?
1) Religion - Some people take religion as a step of positive thinking. Let us examine this option closely. First, the core concept of religion is faith. Christianity teaches that a person with faith can achieve anything. This is also at the heart of positive thinking. A person who believes that he or she can do something will achieve it.
Some people who take this step of positive thinking develop the faith that whatever happens in life, they will be alright. This thinking, of course, gets rid of all the negative thoughts in a person's mind. They find the positive attitude by trusting their lives to a higher power.
2) Self-improvement - This step of positive thinking is taken by people who feel that their negative thoughts come from their feelings of inadequacy. They improve their images in order to convince themselves that they do matter. They make themselves into someone whom they think will not fail.
Sometimes, this step works and initiates changes in a person's view of life. However, it can also fail and just bury a person's negative thoughts under a false pretense of success.
Some people take this step of positive thinking by joining a health club. Other people take up a hobby or an activity which lets them realize just how much they can achieve if they put their minds to it. They begin to think that since they were able to achieve something in this or that activity, they will also be able to achieve any other challenges that life throws their way.
3) Therapy - Some people just go to professionals and try to get rid of the problem by trying to understand the cause. This step of positive thinking can either be very effective or utterly useless. It can also be very expensive. Therapy is often done through a psychiatrist or through a group. They try to jump-start their positive thinking by getting help from other people.
4) Self-recovery - Other people just try to get over their negative thoughts. Those who take this step of positive thinking often experience what people call an epiphany. They experience a life-changing event that suddenly brings all into perspective. Other people recover through an inner struggle that pits their will against negativity. This step of positive thinking may be the most difficult to take, but it gets the best results. This is because you will not depend on anything but your self to think positive.
By thinking positive, you will live positively and enjoy your success.

I came home from work late one evening, hungry and frustrated, and popped into my mother’s house, which was next door to mine. She was eating a frozen dinner and sipping from a mug of hot water. CNN blared on the TV in the background. She asked how my day had been. I said, “Oh, it was good.” She looked up from her black plastic food tray and, after a moment, said, “No, it wasn’t. What happened ...
