For example, you may be in a stressful relationship with someone, and you may see that as "bad" or "wrong" to your life. Assume that deep down everything is all right and you will be fine. This will help you relax and keep a positive frame of mind, so you can deal with the present more effectively. This links with the next of our positive thinking tips. 2. Decide to live in the present. Most of our negative thinking takes place when we go back to the past ("I wish I had acted differently", "I was happier then than I am now") or when we try to anticipate the future ("I wish this doesn't go wrong", "I'm not sure I'll have enough money"). The present, though, is the only time we have. When you focus on living the present you improve the quality of your life. Find out more about living in the present. 3. Resolve to have courage. Nothing is so bad; nothing can really bring you down but for death (and even this can be argued, as several religions see death as a step rather than an end). From now until you die, you've got nothing to loose, but a lot to gain. Therefore decide that it is a waste of time to worry or fear anything. Whenever you find yourself in fear, remember that nothing is definite. Any experience can only make you stronger. Decide that this will be your approach to anything that comes along. Problems will not look so big. 4. Be happy with what you have and are. I don't mean that you just accept and stay in any situation you have, for it is human to seek progress and change. However, you need to feel good with your circumstances up to a point, so you don't walk through life as a complaining figure, never happy with anything. This one could be the simplest of these positive thinking tips, but it is also probably the most effective one to live a happy life. Most of our negativity in this aspect comes because we tend to compare who we are or what we have with someone else or their possessions. Guess what, we'll always end up loosing. Just don't compare yourself. I used to think that the grass was greener on the other side of the fence, until I started to realize that my circumstances were just as good or as bad as anybody else's, and better or worst than somebody else's. It just comes down to what you make out of your reality. 5. Choose a goal that you would like to pursue (one of those from the list "things to do before you die"). Get busy planning how you'll make it reality; define what will be the positive steps to take. Susan Minarik's "Winning the tomorrow game" shows you perfectly how to identify your goals and what steps you need to take to make them real. The goals that fulfil us most are normally those who have to do with personal interests: skydiving, learning to paint, travelling to a remote country, winning a competition... We pursue them in a pure act of self-fulfilment, and in doing so we find joy. Now get on to it!Print these positive thinking tips and keep this list handy.
