What are you thinking about? Be careful.
“If you think about disaster, you will get it. Brood about death and you hasten your demise. Think positively and masterfully, with confidence and faith, and life becomes more secure, more fraught with action, richer in achievement and experience.”
Eddie Rickenbacker
1890-1973, American Fighter Ace, Race Car Driver and air transportation pioneer.
The above quote is very thought provoking; especially so, considering the caliber of the man making it. It is a fair assumption that a man such as him would have a great understanding of the subject matters.
Personally, I remember when I used to feel insecure for example…..I became less secure and things got worse.
Life has a series of laws which operate whether we believe in them or not.
If we indulge in “stinking thinking” then we will get “stinking results”.
I used to get stinking results in my own life – back when I used to think negatively, weakly and without confidence. My faith was so weak too, apart from my faith in things going wrong that is. In fact, that is a significant thing….we all have faith in something – good or bad. I had great faith in all the negatives. Once. So much better to put our energies into being positive. To turn the orientation of our minds, and face the “sun”.
These days people tell me that I am an inspiration – a very positive thinker. If I can do it, so can anyone. Believe me, I once was lost in a dark negative place. Full of failure consciousness.
And no matter how positive you think you are, you can always do better. Positivity is a journey, not a destination.
