It’s no secret that keeping a positive mental attitude is important in life. Listed below are three optimistic thinking pointers that will keep your spirits up during tough times. It's not easy to stay optimistic , when life don't go the way you planned or hope for.
The very first of my positive thinking tips is to practice and make it into a habit of asking the correct questions. So what am I trying to say? Well, our way of thinking is for the most part controlled by the questions we ask ourselves on a regular basis. Not convincing enough for you? Just watch your own thoughts for an hour or so. An awful lot of people often make the same mistake of asking themselves the wrong questions. Things like “Why does this always happen to me?” or “How come life has to be so hard?” Many of these questions are based on the assumption that bad situations alway happens to you and that life is tough. Beliefs like these will only reaffirm this to you and becomes a self fullfilling prophecy.
Try asking yourself questions that are less negative and more likely to help aligned you with your desires. Maybe things like “What is the positive outcome to this situation?” or “What can I be excited about today?” Questions like these help strengthen positive beliefs into your mind and can help you stay optimistic. It might be tough at first to modify your thought process (since you've been thinking and asking yourself the same style of questions for awhile), but is the results are worth it.
Another one of my positive thinking tips is to start keeping a gratitude journal. This could be as easy as keeping a little notebook by your bed and writing down everything you are thankful for that occurred to you that day. Write down what you are gracious for in your day to day life. This can be anything at all. I remember once I wrote down “I am grateful I caught the bus to work just in time today” and then the next day I wrote “I am grateful I missed the bus because it gave me time to read the newspaper in a cafe while I waited for the next bus.” Doing this often enough, you will start to fully grasp that life isn't as unpleasant as it seems, and that you will start to have a more optimistic perspective on life.
My last positive thinking tip is to sit down and write about your ideal life, precisely the way you want it to be. Make sure you write down every single detail. When I did this I nearly wrote 10 pages about every last possible detail you can think of. I was very descriptive of all the places I wanted to travel and live, how much money I made, and who I wanted to spend it with. This may take some time, but I guarantee you that doing this will make you feel great, help you concentrate on your goals,and put you in alignment with your desires.
So try out these three positive thinking tips and you should see your mental attitude towards life turn around rapidly. Positive thinking really can enhance your life and help you gain things that you never thought possible.
