Developing a positive attitude creates a positive attitude, just as energy produces more energy. Developing a positive attitude affects your own way of thinking, as well as the thinking of other people that surrounds you. In effect, no matter how bad or rotten a situation may look like, you can make it seem or appear better by at least pretending to have that kind of outlook—even if you yourself do not feel optimistic at all. In this case, even if you are just feigning

The law of attraction states that if you want something badly enough and believe that you'll get it then you will. It's not about chance or fate but rather influencing the natural order of things by projecting a need so great that you actually motivate that thing into happening. The entire concept is very similar to Peter Pan and his never ending chant of "I do believe in fairies. I do, I do," when confronted with the possibility that Tinkerbell might die. So right there you

1. Inside OutrnWhat you say to yourself on the inside will have an impact on how you act on the outside. So, try to be your own coach by advising yourself in the way a good friend would talk to you. If you were advising a good friend, you would use positive words and ‘big them up’ because you care and want them to do well. Talk to yourself in the same way and resist negative language, as sometimes, these thoughts can become self-fulfilling prophecies. Beating yourself up

There is one essential ingredient in manifesting even the largest of desires. Your aspirations can only thrive if you give them this important element in the process. Leaving this ingredient out is like taking oxygen out of the air. What is oxygen to a goal? The secret ingredient is a positive open mind toward your goal. That you must have a positive open mind may seem like common sense, but you would be shocked if you took a tally of the number of times a day you spoke negat

Adi Shankaracharya, Saint Jnaneshwar, Swami Ramtirtha and Vivekanad despite being healthy, full of soul power and penance lived for around 30-40 years only. These are not ordinary incidences. Behind this is a mystery and special reason. They realized that those times demanded more action which was not possible within the realm of their gross bodies. Hence they thought of rendering active, their subtle bodies. Hence more work could be executed in a wider arena. The body with h

I attended a nine day course on self awareness and spirituality in Califo ia, October 2011. As part of the course other members of the group and I, were required to go on a meditation walk every morning at 7.00am. During the walk we would name everything that are eyes rested upon, using first generation names, such as sky, flower, sun, we could also change the names of objects to whatever we wished. The purpose of this exercise was to find joy and wonder in everyday miracles that surround us.

It’s a fact that most of us talk to ourselves all day long it’s like we are in constant mental chatter. But, if this self talk is negative, be it tainted with guilt about our past or anxiety about our future, then this negativity can destroy our future dreams. As it’s our nature to seek personal growth, emotionally, financially, physically so it’s no doubt, our actions are inspired by our thoughts and if we can slightly change the way we think, it will have an impact on our actions too. To get rid out of this negativity, try these below steps to empower yourself. 1.r

Forming a Positive OutlooknnLooking back over the last few years of rapid transformation I've been experiencing, I've noticed several trends emerging. One is that my worldview has become increasingly more integral, complex and comprehensive; this is clearly driven to a large extent by spirituality. Seeing the One in Many and Many in One seems to provide a driving impetus to seek out people, data and framework which support this and the incompleteness of data and actions which

You all have experienced a period in your life where you have felt out of control and imbalanced. It is perfectly natural! But how can you attain a balance in these chaotic periods? If you can understand what true balance in life really means then you will be on the first step toward creating a balanced way of living.

Everywhere, sound, vibration, frequency moves me as it has moved cultures for millennia. Sound provides a doorway in consciousness, an avenue for outward creation, and a pathway in to the deep reaches of our being:nn• Recently as I walked down the National Mall in Washington D.C., I heard an ancient rhythm from a ceremonial drum ricochet through the marble and limestone canyons formed by Government buildings and the monuments of our nation’s memories.nn• Outside the vas

Attitude is best defined as a state of mind or perception. It has often been said: We never see the world the way it is, we see the world the way we are. Things in life often have the meanings we give them. Right now, we are encountering times of uncertainty. Our country has been hit hard by economic challenges, acts of terrorism, and constant downsizing. Situations like this can cause us to adopt a less than empowering attitude. The good news is, there are specific things th

One trait that many successful people have in common is the belief that there is no such thing as failure. Successful people tend to think more along the lines of results and outcomes.

Psychologists have estimated that the average person has over 62,000 thoughts each day centered on ordinary activities and responsibilities. People rarely "track" their thoughts - whether they’re positive or negative, fleeting or introspective, directed or unrelated to the moment. Never the less, our internal dialogue for decision-making, actions, and behavior hums constantly in our brains. When most of the mental chatter is negative, it is built on messages like, “Don’

Have you ever heard anyone say something along the lines of “You can create and achieve whatever it is that you want in life”? Many people would love to have all their dreams come true but because of what THEY do, it just never happens. You see, most of the time, WE are our own worst enemy.

In his classic book, "Think And Grow Rich", best-selling author Napoleon Hill tells the story of a man who put everything he had into the search for oil, but every shaft he sank stayed dry.

Most people would assume that self-esteem can be a measure of how much you love yourself, but the truth is, even the most secure and confident person can be found uttering the most absurd things to his/her-self that upon closer examination would clearly show that confidence does not mean self-love. nnWe say so many things to ourselves that we would never verbally utter to the ones we love.

Get rid of any electronics or devices in the bedroom. It’s meant for two things: sleeping and sexing (I said sexing, not sexting). When you allow too much of the outside world into the bedroom, distractions infiltrate the sacred space meant solely for rest, relaxation, and procreation.

YOU SAID, I HEARDnRob, a client of mine (though not his real name), recently took a one-week vacation from work, a much-needed break from a highly stressful, fast-paced corporate environment.

Solomon said, “The tongue of the wise is health” (Proverbs 12:18) and “Death and life are in the power of the tongue” (Proverbs 18:21) Words…They are powerful. Words have a magical power. Our words describe our thoughts in our inner world. Words have a profound impact on our life. They have the power to create our results which are a product of our inner self talk. So, we should start using supportive empowering words with ourselves and with others. Words give us power to express and communicate and therefore they have the power to create the events of our lives.

Our biggest barrier to success is more often than not the limitations that we place upon ourselves. The word "can't" followed by a description of our circumstance equals almost instant failure. In fact you may as well not even start trying, in fact you probably won't even start anyway.

1. Draw attention away from negative thoughts Negative thoughts can have a tremendous power. They destroy our mood, our courage and our joy. But you don't have to give them that power. You can simply withdraw your attention from negative thoughts. This does not mean, of course, that they will no longer be there. But they do not have such a great influence on you anymore. Here's how it works: When you find that you are dealing with worries, fears, self-reproach or other negati
