typically we dip into a book on positive thinking, get ambitious and then after few weeks --usually only after few days, go back to our normal order of thinking. Why are we not adopting positive thinking as our way of being? Is this form of thinking very difficult to adopt, or is it that our environment and individuals around us are so negative that it is practically hopeless for an person to become positive and stay so?
If we contemplate profoundly enough it will become clear that people don't adhere with this positive-thinking thing, mainly because of two reasons.
People fail to understand the essence of the inner workings of positive thinking and apply it in a wrong way.
We expect quick results and when people do not see any noticeable benefit with in a period of 2 -3 days they loose interest. And continuously their habitual thought pattern comes back.
It is said that 80% of the thoughts of an average person are not positive. When we start thinking positively we just adapt to a new course of thought --which is positive-- with all our unpositive thoughts. I'll get the raise easily". This is a conscious thought stream. But in the evening returning home from work we keep thinking unpositivly and how difficult it is going to be. This unpositive thought comes to our mind compulsorily (unconsciously). We process this thought with lots of unpositive emotion. And all these happen without our being conscious of what we are doing.
To unleash the full capability of positive thinking you have to arrest and kill negative thought process. It is not back breaking and with practice it becomes easier.
So how do we get fast results from our positive thinking efforts. To be honest their is no accelerated way to see results overnight. When used properly positive thinking has the power to do wonders in your life. The best thing to do is get started. After that stay engrossed and the results will come.
