Positive vs Negative Thinking

"Our life is what our thoughts make it.", says Marcus Aurelius. It is true that the way we think determines how we live, grow and respond to the things around us. Our thinking may be positive or negative.

A person with the positive thinking always

tries to see the good in everything whereas one with the negative thinking always finds a fault with everything howsoever good it may be.

If our thinking is positive,we'll try to get the best even out of the worst and if it is negative we'll fail to appreciate even the best. With a positive frame of mind, we can find a solution to every problem, sooner or later but with negativity in our mind we often miss an opportunity and fail to get the solution.A person with the positive thoughts explores the possibilities amidst all the limitations and one having negative thoughts always finds a problem and some excuse. A teacher with the positive thinking instills good values in the students and helps them become dutiful and responsible citizens whereas the one with the negative thinking keeps looking for the ways to disturb the system, sometimes also involving the students and taking them on a wrong path, not to talk of making them dutiful and responsible. A worker with the positive thinking always tries not to be reminded of the task and is often dependable but the one with the negative thoughts keeps everyone doubtful and is hardly dependable. If we think positively, we are generally appreciated and supported in our cause but if we think negatively, we are usually avoided by the majority in society and we often fail to get their support when in need.

The persons with negativity in their mind are bound to manifest their malafide intentions and evil designs, sooner or later, howsoever they may try to look good and positive. Julian Huxley also says, " Sooner or later, false thinking brings wrong conduct." On the other hand, those who think positively are bound to find a way out of all difficulties because they feel motivated and energised from within and also, sooner or later, they get support from different corners as people have faith in them and their intentions.

Thus, we see that the positive thinking gives us courage,energy and motivation to go ahead and keep improving and bettering things whereas the negative thinking only ruins our spirit and enthusiasm and leads us to a condition where there can't be any good - personal or social.

Now, the choice is yours - whether to go with the positive thinking or with the negative thinking. Thank you ! 😊😊
