So you've now learned how to be positive. What will happen if you think, do and be positive?
Do you know that there's no really difference between the talents and abilities of a winner and a loser? The loser can be more talented, intelligent, and skilled than the winner, but the winner becomes successful. I have learned this from one of the talks of Bo Sanchez, my favorite Catholic preacher. The only difference between the loser and the winner is the ability of the latter to perceive himself as a successful human being. The winner has positive beliefs in life, can stand in trials, believe that there's a brighter destination in the end of the journey. On the other hand, the loser, even if more talented, intelligent and skilled, has a negative mindset, gives up easily and always complains of the trials.
Here are the blessings you can enjoy when you have a positive mindset according to one of the talks of Bo Sanchez:
1. You love yourself more. You increase your self worth. Because you are positive, you see yourself as beautiful human being having a capacity to do something for others. Even if you have a pimples on your face, cellulite on your legs, or scar on your knees, you perceive yourself as beautiful because your heart is full of love.
2. You grow in endurance. If you are positive, you won't give up easily, you take each trial as an opportunity to be a better person, and to learn something to achieve your dreams. You see the end of the road, that's why you keep on persevering despite hardships and obstacles.
Do you know Abraham Lincoln? He is rated as one of the best American Presidents. He was a very successful politician and lawyer. But only few know that Abraham Lincoln had gone through setbacks and defeats.
Wanna know a summary of his life's defeats before he succeed? See below.
- Lost job, 1832
- Defeated for legislature, 1832
- Failed in business, 1833
- Elected to legislature, 1834
- Sweetheart (Ann Rutledge) died, 1835
- Had nervous breakdown, 1836
- Defeated for Speaker, 1838
- Defeated for nomination for Congress, 1843
- Elected to Congress, 1846
- Lost renomination, 1848
- Rejected for Land Officer, 1849
- Defeated for Senate, 1854
- Defeated for nomination for Vice-President, 1856
- Again defeated for Senate, 1858
- Elected President, 1860
This is to show that a failure can be a success if a person doesn't give up. If a person has a positive mindset like Abraham Lincoln, it's not possible that he will be successful despite setbacks and defeats.
3.You enjoy your relationships more. Since you are positive, you always see the good in everyone. You will have good relationships with your family, friends and colleagues. You forgive easily. You do not keep any kind of hatred and anger to someone. You become a loving, selfless, and helpful person.
4. You are more successful in life. Because you think positive, you have a clear vision of what you want to be in the future. You have a bright dream. You know the path where you want to go. You are excited to wake up everyday because you are inspired to achieve your dreams. You see more opportunities. You only see the blessings and you will be able to transform the problems into blessings.
5. You will be more closer to God. If you have positive, you have faith. You believe that there is God who is always willing to take charge of your problems if you can't carry them anymore. Even if you encounter so many trials, you believe that God will help you solve these if you just keep doing the right thing. By being closer to God, you will be inspired to be more like Jesus everyday to the people around you.
You want to enjoy these blessings? Make a decision to have a positive mindset everyday. It's not an overnight process but you can start today.
Think, do and be positive.
Live a happy life,
