Positive thoughts are those thoughts which give us and others the experience of our original virtues like peace, love, bliss, happiness, etc. They enable you to accumulate inner strength and equip you to be constructive. Positive thoughts are always beneficial in all circumstances, without trapping you in the external appearance of a situation.
Thinking positively does not mean ignoring the reality of your world
and living in a fantasy or longing to be another person. For example,
if you were to repeat over and over again, "I am well, am well," when
you were ill, this is not what we mean by positive thinking.
Thinking positively involves looking at problems and recognizing reality,
but at the same time being able to find solutions without becoming
obsessed or confused. This often requires tolerance, patience and
common sense.
A person who thinks positively is aware of the weaknesses of others,
but even then will direct their attention towards their positive
characteristics.
Positive thoughts make you happy and as a result your expectations of
others decrease. This does not mean that they do not matter to you, but
that you no longer demand love, respect, recognition, or even calm,
from them, and it makes your relationships that much easier. This is
the best way to create long-lasting and harmonious relationships. When
you have inner happiness, you have the strength to accept other people
as they are without wanting them to be different. This acceptance
produces more peaceful relationships. With the positive attitude you
create, you can offer yourself to other people just the way you are, with
your virtues and limitations, without pretense.
Your body also benefits greatly, since when you have a balanced,
harmonious mind you are less susceptible to illnesses. A person who
has many useless thoughts will often feel very tired because they are
spending their energy in creating thousands of unnecessary and
inefficient thoughts.
Your mind is strengthened and healed by being nourished with positive
thoughts. A healthy mind is the basis of a balanced personality.
