Positive Thinking – Negative Thinking – Right Thinking

One way to describe the Law of Attraction is that –my thoughts are created into my results. Like attracts like. My life manifests what I focus on consciously and subconsciously.

The truth is that we can be, do, and have anything we want if we’ll give up the belief we can’t be, do, or have it.

Negative Thinking

Negative Thinking is the result of focusing on my problems. It manifests itself in statements like, “life is hard,” “business is terrible,” “I’ll never reach my goals,” and “I’m a failure.”

Most people easily see that negative thinking is harmful. But admittedly, negative thinking is our biggest problem.

Positive Thinking

Some say the key to success and happiness is Positive Thinking. Positive thinking is simply taking our negative thoughts and transforming them into positive statements like, “life is easy,” “business is great,” “I always reach my goals,” and, “I’m a success.”

While positive thinking is certainly better than negative thinking, it doesn’t go far enough. Even if we think positively, without changing our inner beliefs, we will not get the results we desire.

Right Thinking

Right Thinking is based in Truth. We must stop kidding ourselves, stop blaming others, and stop avoiding tough decisions. We must face the truth that everything we experience in life we have invited, attracted, and created. Right Thinking comes from being aware of this truth.
