We have all heard the familiar phrase: “If Life gives you lemons – make lemonade!” The power of positive thinking has long been a highly prized policy for many successful people. If you want success in life then the time is NOW to take that notion of thinking positively more seriously – don’t you think?
Examine your life and look back.
More than likely you will begin to piece it all together just to realize that everything you did –whether the outcome was perceived as being ‘good’ or ‘bad’– began with a particular frame of mind and train of thought. The thought pattern you held yesterday was the input of positive or negative energy that created what is today now real in your life. And it’s that simple. Thoughts become things. So change your thinking and change your reality.

The thought pattern you held yesterday was the input of positive or negative energy that created what is today now real in your life. And it’s that simple. Thoughts become things. So change your thinking and change your reality.
First, be absolutely honest with yourself.
Take note of everything: from your body’s weight on that scale to the amount of money you’ve got in your pocket; from the kind of social interaction you experience with friends and family to the type of relationship you have with your significant other; from the employment situation you’ve accepted to invest your time in every day to the place you lay your head down to rest and call home. If you find that there is anything –and I mean anything– in your life that does not spark for you a serious feeling of complete satisfaction and peace deeply on the inside of your very being – and IF you truly want to change yourself and/or your life situation so that it does – at some point you must take note and be totally accountable for what your mind has created.

Truth is:
You somehow have to start getting your mind to work for you rather than against you.

So, no doubt, the next question you may ask is: “How do I do that? How do I change my way of thinking?” Answer: You must believe… –no!– You’ve got to KNOW that “a positive mental attitude supported by affirmations will achieve success in anything." An affirmation is a positive statement or declaration, often without support or reason that something exists or is true. Next, you may wonder: How do I do this ‘Affirmation Thing’ then? -Right? Okay, I’ll break it down for you even further.
Real Talk: You have to hypnotize yourself. It works and it’s not even hard to do.
