Tips To achieving positive Mindset

The “power of positive thinking” is a popular concept, and sometimes it can feel a little Overused.
A positive mindset would give you more confidence, improve your mood, and even drastically reduce the chance of developing conditions such as hypertension, depression and other stress related disorders.

All this sounds great, but what does the power of positive thinking really mean?

You can define positive thinking as positive imagery, positive self-talk or general optimism, but these are all still general, ambiguous concepts. If you want to be effective in thinking and be more positive, you’ll need concrete examples to help you through the process.

Below are few practical tips that would guide you towards positive thinking 

1.Start your day with positive affirmation 

How you start the morning most likely determines the tone for the rest of the day. Have you ever woken up late, panicked, and then felt like nothing good happened the rest of the day? This is likely because you started out the day with a negative emotion and a pessimistic view which you carried into every other event you experienced that day. Instead of letting this dominate you, start your day with positive affirmations. Talk to yourself in the mirror, even if you feel awkward, with statements like, “Today will be a good day” or “I’m going to be awesome today.” You’ll be amazed how much your day improves.

2. Focus on the good things(Optimism)

 You’re Definitely going to encounter obstacles at different time of the day—there’s no such thing as a perfect day. When you encounter such challenges, focus on the bright side, no matter how slight or unimportant they seem. For example, if you get stuck in traffic, think about how God might have saved you from a dangerous accident if there was no traffic . If you're stuck with a flat battery think about how productive you can be at that moment because your mobile device might be just what is stopping you from thinking productively that moment .

3. Turn failures into lessons.

You aren’t perfect. You’re going to make mistakes and experience failure in multiple areas, at multiple tasks and with multiple people. Instead of focusing on how you failed, think about what you’re going to do next time—turn your failure into a lesson.think about what you did wrong and make it a lesson  iw would help you not to make such error(s) again 

4. Focus on the present.

I’m talking about the present—not today, not this hour, only this exact moment. You might be getting lashed by your superior, but what in this exact moment is happening that’s so bad? Forget the comment he made five minutes ago. Forget what he might say five minutes from now. Focus on this one, individual moment. In most situations, you’ll find it’s not as bad as you imagine it to be. Most sources of negativity comes from a memory of a recent event or the exaggerated imagination of a future event. Stay in the present moment.

5. Find positive friends, mentors and co-workers.

When you surround yourself with positive people, you’ll hear positive remarks, positive stories and positive affirmations. Their positive words will sink in and affect your own line of thinking, which then affects your words and similarly contributes to the group. Finding positive people to fill up your life can be difficult, but you need to eliminate the negativity in your life before it consumes you. Do what you can to improve the positivity of others, and let their positivity affect you the same way.

Almost anybody in any situation can apply these lessons to their own lives and increase their positive attitude. As you might imagine, positive thinking offers compounding returns, so the more often you practice it, the greater benefits you'll realize.
