We’ve all heard amazing stories of rags to riches stories, people who’ve turned their lives around and went from zero to hero. Yet, even as we marvel at their success, we never think that we are capable of such ourselves. It is such negative thinking that keeps us at our low-paying jobs, stuck in our crappy little apartments and in our mediocre lives. But we can change our lives, simply by harnessing the power of our minds, specifically the power of positive thinking.
Like all things in life, learning to turn negative thoughts into positive ones will take time, but the process itself is really quite simple.
· Stay fit and healthy. A healthy mind needs a healthy body to reside in. Maintaining a healthy lifestyle is one the fundamental ways to stay positive without any psychological involvement. Regular exercise is scientifically proven to elevate mood and reduce stress. A healthy diet is also essential – make sure you fuel your body with the right foods.
· Use positive affirmations. Many of us are our own worst enemies, constantly pulling ourselves down with negative self-talk. Encourage yourself with daily positive affirmations and drown out the voice of negativity.
· Choose your company well. Negativity, like positivity is contagious. Surround yourself with positive people who support you and avoid those who sap your energy and motivation with their relentless negativity.
· Smile! The simple act of smiling is physically proven to help you stay positive and make you more happy Allow yourself to be open to humour, share a laugh with a neighbour or smile at the cashier when she rings up your purchases. You’ll be surprised at how good it’ll make you feel.
Practice these simple steps everyday and eventually you will find yourself breaking away from the chains of negativity. Start changing your life today!
