Why Stay Positive?

The positive thinker sees the invisible, feels the intangible, and achieves the impossible.Unknown Author

the invisible

There’s an invisible world, one which we often ignore. That part of the Universe and its laws have a direct impact on our daily living. When we raise our vibrations by thinking good, thinking love and thinking positive, we partake of and create positive vibrations. These vibrations impact us, our future and those around us. Good health, great relationships, a happy present moment and a great future is the result!

it affects you first

When we feel resentment, fear, sorrow and experience worry we are generating and/or picking up vibrations of a whole different frequency. These lower frequencies impact us directly and first.

And that is the reason to not let these lower vibrations stick around youself for too long!

Why live with a neighbor that causes nothing but unhappiness? You think you are justified complaining about who did wrong to you and why. You might be justified but don’t feel sorry for yourself.

Break free instead, turn the tide, adopt vibrations of the positive kind!

Ask For The Highest

Ask and it shall be given you; seek and you shall find; knock and it shall be opened to you. For every one who asks receives; he who seeks finds; and to him who knocks the door of salvation will be opened.The Urantia Papers

what to ask for?

It’s a law of the Universe. We must ask before it can be given. We must look around and knock at doors before the way opens for us.

What should we be asking for?

ask for the highest

And everything of lesser importance and as it relates to your eternal life will be given automatically. Everything in the Universe is spiritually focused. All that we do on this planet has value only if it’s of a spiritual nature especially in our relationships with others. So seeking the highest gives us the rest.

Command your life!

Don’t be at the mercy of events, command your thoughts instead and command the events in turn.mp

At the Mercy of Events

Something great happens and we feel elated and happy; something bad or terrible occurs and we’re in the doldrums. Sometimes we’re in the doldrums for no apparent reason!

Why?

Why be at the mercy of events?

All in the Thoughts

The problem and the solution both lie in our thoughts and how we think. We think most thoughts in our mind, unconsciously. Because we’re not aware of most of our own thoughts we’re unaware how based on assumptions they lead us steadily into feelings of fear, despair and depression.

  1. The first step is to be aware of what we think. Notice how a chain of thoughts is directly responsible for how you feel at any moment.
  2. Catch yourself before you start thinking in this fashion. Understand that life is change and that most of our fear about life is because life doesn’t appear to follow our own expectations. So an example might be that you apply for a job and don’t get it. Now you feel fearful because you hoped and expected to get that job. Because life didn’t turn out the way you expected you think thoughts right into a funk. Here’s the key though; you often think these thoughts unconsciously, you don’t know why you feel a certain way. The job incident might be haunting you 2 months later and you may not realize it.
  3. Don’t have expectations. Ok it’s hard but a habit is built one tiny step at a time. If your end goal is to be calm, peaceful and happy then you might want to do this! Don’t expect life to go your way. Do what’s necessary and then know that you’re capable of handling whatever life throws at you!
  4. Command your thoughts! You are your own master, control the quality of thoughts you think and you directly control the quality of your life. Period.
  5. Visualize what you desire. With regular frequency visualize what you want in as much detail as possible, include the feeling of living that life.

Let’s wake up and live a conscious and meaningful life!

The purpose of life…

The purpose of life is a life of purpose.Robert Byrne

A Life of Purpose

Simple isn’t it? Why do we still feel so unfulfilled and even scared about life? How should we define or find a purpose for our lives? Is that enough?

The Trick

Purpose, like life can be addressed at many levels. Here’s an example:

  • Highest Level: To follow God’s will while serving others in love.
  • In-between level: Be a Chiropractor helping people in pain
  • Lowest Level: I will stay happy, daily.

So go find your Life Purpose/s and forget about everything else. Live it as best you can. Taking positive action; daily, bit by bit is the sure way. This blog will continue to explore ways and means to help you discover your Life Purpose!

Martin Seligman comes to mind when talking about happiness and meaning in life. He wrote the book on it! Here’s what he says:

The pleasant life: a life that successfully pursues the positive emotions about the present, past, and future.
The good life: using your signature strengths to obtain abundant gratification in the main realms of your life.
The meaningful life: using your signature strengths and virtues in the service of something much larger than you are.

The gift that you are…

Everyone is gifted – but some people never open their packageUnknown

What do you hide?

And why? You bring gifts that no one else does. Why do you let that light not shine? What does the world lose when you’re shy or hesitant? What’s your Raison D’Etre?

You are the gift!

It’s you, the unique personality that you are, one that has no equal anywhere else in all time and all space!

You are the gift to others and the world; spread your wings; give of yourself; blossom the confidence that’s necessary and don’t hide the brilliance that’s waiting to spring out from you!
