Positive thinking is a way of looking at the brighter side of life.

Everything is good, beautiful, and light. There are no worries, problems, or fears. In short, all you see and believe in is, well, positive. I guess that’s already the most suitable word in describing this way of thinking, which is why it is the term being used.

This kind of thinking is very powerful in that if you think that you are going to pass an exam, you are going to pass; if you think that you’ll get noticed by your crush, you’ll get noticed; if you think you will get promoted at work, then you’ll get promoted.

This is how powerful the mind is, particularly positive mind. Even the famous Clint Eastwood believes in this general truth that he quoted, “If you think it’s going to rain, it will.”

So, how does the power of positive thinking works? How can it create reality? Do we only have to think of positive things and then will it happen right away?

That positive thinking really is powerful may be somehow hard to believe at first, that’s why we may ask certain questions like those above. Because the mind is working on the information you send it, positive thinking leads to positive reality.

Its so true, there was a study done in America on an old italian community that had really low cases of heart disease and other illnesses and the only thing researches could find that was different was a sense of communiity and a positive outlook - im not sure how or why but it seems to work

There is no doubt that your thinking decides your destiny. So why not think positive. There is a nice quote:
“Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you'll start having positive results.” Willie Nelson

I try to always look at the positive side of things. Stress and depression can do a lot of harm to your mental and physical health. While medicine certainly helps, so does happiness, the power of having supportive friends and family, and the power of prayer.

I agree, at times its hard, but if you can look on the bright side of life you will always feel better. I read a study recently from the UK that showed that optimisitc people were less likely to suffer from diseases like heart disease - now thats a reason to be happy!
