Thinking Makes It So

There is nothing either good or bad, but thinking makes it so.

People become really quite remarkable when they start thinking that they can do things. When they believe in themselves they have the first secret of success.

Norman Vincent Peale

Focus On Being Happy

Our thinking directly affects our bodies and how it functions. Negative thinking makes the whole body weak and fragile. All that stress, worrying, and nonsense thinking leads to headaches, sleeping disorders, muscle tensions, anxiety, and fatigue. So push the problems aside and just focuses on being happy.

Instead of thinking about what you're missing,

try thinking about what you have that everyone else is missing.

Expect Positive Things to Happen:

You experience what you think about most.Therefore, forward thinking with positive expectations is what you will get or backward thinking with negative expectations is what you will get. You chose.

Tap into your emotions. Fire yourself up the way athletes do. With enthusiasm, chant to yourself out loud.You can do it! You can do it! You can do it! This technique may take you outside of your comfort zone, but its fun once you get started. Granted, if you do this around family and friends I can guarantee a few strange looks. On the other hand, talk them into participating with you.

Conventional education makes independent thinking extremely difficult. Conformity leads to mediocrity. To be different from the group or to resist environment is not easy and is often risky as long as we worship success.

- Jiddu Krishnamurti

Impossible Thinking

The only place where your dream becomes impossible is in your own thinking.

- Robert Schuller

Thinking

Some flowers grow best in the Sun while others do well in Shade.

Remember, we are put where we grow the best and accordingly we get people and situations to grow with.

Thinking

To go against the dominant thinking of your friends, of most of the people you see every day, is perhaps the most difficult act of heroism you can perform.

- Theodore H. White

The Movement of Your Own Thinking

Have you ever sat very quietly with closed eyes and watched the movement of your own thinking? Have you watched your mind working?or rather, has your mind watched itself in operation, just to see what your thoughts are, what your feelings are, how you look at the trees, at the flowers, at the birds, at people, how you respond to a suggestion or react to a new idea? Have you ever done this?

- Jiddu Krishnamurti

Giving Away Your Money

People think that if they were rich they would contribute to charities. My experience has been if you don't start giving away your money when you have very little, you won't do it when you get a lot.

- Robert Bainum

Courage to Follow Your Heart

Your time is limited, don’t waste it living someone else’s life. Don’t be trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other people’s thinking. Don’t let the noise of other’s opinion drowned your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition, they somehow already know what you truly want to become. Everything else is secondary.

- Steve Jobs
