You are who you believe that you are. If you believe that you have a problem, then you will have a problem. We are in control of our own minds, nothing else controls it for us. There is no automatic pilot. The only way you can be depressed is by "knowing that you are" The only way you can be happy is by "knowing that you are" You want to be happy? Then don't "try" to be happy, just "know" that you are. Program your own mind to think positively. Anybody in the world can do it. You just have to believe that you can do it.

I choose to believe it. And I feel great.   Poker Shark Posted at 2:58 am on Nov. 21, 2008 bullshit Anonymous Posted at 12:50 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from Jman19 at 12:47 am on Nov. 21, 2008 I was actually reading this magazine type thing, and there was this guy that wrote in it about positive thinking, and he said   'Affirmations are positive statements. Sometimes we can have prolonged periods of "stinking thinking" and this makes life less enjoyable. However we can retain our thinking into positive patterns to improve the quality of our lives." And then he went on to say... 'Have you ever listened to a song early in the morning and it's played in your mind all day long? Imagine if positive thoughts played in your mind all day long without any effort - Imagine how good that would feel.' It made me think, actually. Yes! Its really fantastic stuff!   It's not harder to be positive than it is to be negative. And being positive feels much better!   So why do so many people choose to feel nagative? its a funny world.   Everybody is great and has the potential to do something great..... but they have to "Know" that they can do it!   "Guys.... Always be aware of what thoughts are going through your own mind" Jman19 Posted at 12:47 am on Nov. 21, 2008 I was actually reading this magazine type thing, and there was this guy that wrote in it about positive thinking, and he said 'Affirmations are positive statements.

Be positive, see the real world. dont need to be positive to see reality No. But you have a passion in life that you really want to achieve. Then stop "trying" to achieve it. And "know" that you can. Theres a difference between "trying" and "knowing" Anonymous Posted at 12:27 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from ohxxindie at 12:25 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from Anonymous at 12:22 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from ohxxindie at 12:20 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Agree to disagree.    Well there you go....    You're telling yourself that it "wont work"    So you already have it programmed in your own mind that it "wont work"    Thats why it "wont work".    You have to tell yourself that it will work, and then it will work. No question about it. Some people's minds function differently than others.   Sure positive thinking can work to an extent, but really it can only go so far.   But I like your optimism. But your mind is only different if you "believe" that it is. I'm not telling people to "try" and be positive"..... just "know" that you are. You can only choose how you feel. Because negative people tell themselves that they are not in control.... thats exactly why there not in control. You have to believe that you are in control in order to be in control. justin1990rm Posted at 12:27 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from Anonymous at 12:24 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from justin1990rm at 12:23 am on Nov. 21, 2008 i like to be in touch with reality Then open your mind and get involved.

No, but you can believe that you are going to be a millionaire, then you'll go out and do it. Success doesnt come from "trying" or from "luck" Success comes from "knowing" that you can. And any successful person would tell you the exact same thing. ohxxindie Posted at 12:25 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from Anonymous at 12:22 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Quote: from ohxxindie at 12:20 am on Nov. 21, 2008 Agree to disagree.
