How To Use Positive Thinking To Achieve Your Desires
-
Aug 29Sometimes, when all our doubts, fears and insecurities wrap us up, we always come up with the idea of “I wish I was somebody else.” More often than not, we think and believe that someone or rather, most people are better than us – when in reality, the fact is, most people are more scared than us.You spot a totally eye-catching girl sitting by herself at a party, casually sipping on a glass of coke. You think to yourself, “she looks so perfectly calm and confident.” But if you could read through her transparent mind, you would see a bunch of clouds of thoughts and you might just be amazed that she’s thinking “are people talking about why I am seated here alone?… Why don’t guys find me attractive? …I don’t like my ankles, they look too skinny… I wish I was as intelligent as my best friend.”We look at a young business entrepreneur and say “Wooh… what else could he ask for?” He stares at himself at the mirror and murmur to himself, “I hate my big eyes… I wonder why my friends won’t talk to me… I hope mom and dad would still work things out.”Isn’t it funny? We look at other people, envy them for looking so outrageously perfect and wish we could trade places with them, while they look at us and think of the same thing. We are insecure of other people who themselves are insecure of us. We suffer from low self-esteem, lack of self-confidence and lose hope in self-improvement because we are enveloped in quiet desperation.Sometimes, you notice that you have an irritating habit like biting off your finger nails, having a foul mouth, and you – of all people, is the last to know.I have a friend who never gets tired of talking. And in most conversations, she is the only one who seems to be interested in the things she has to say. So all of our other friends tend to avoid the circles whenever she’s around, and she doesn’t notice how badly she became socially handicapped – gradually affecting the people in her environment.One key to self-improvement is to LISTEN and TALK to a trusted friend. Find someone who you find comfort in opening up with even the most gentle topics you want to discuss. Ask questions like “do you think I am ill-mannered?”, “Do I always sound so argumentative?”, “Do I talk too loud?”, “Does my breath smell?”, “Do I ever bore you when we’re together?”. In this way, the other person will obviously know that you are interested in the process of self-improvement. Lend her your ears for comments and criticisms and don’t give her answers like “Don’t exaggerate! That’s just the way I am!” Open up your mind and heart as well. And in return, you may want to help your friend with constructive criticism that will also help her improve her self.One of Whitney Houston’s songs says “Learning to love yourself is the greatest love of all.” True enough! In order to love others, you must love yourself too. Remember, you cannot give what you do not have.Before telling other people some ways on how to improve themselves, let them see that you yourself is a representation and a product of self-improvement. Self-improvement makes us better people, we then inspire other people, and then the rest of the world will follow.Stop thinking of yourselves as second-rate beings. Forget the repetitive thought of “If only I was richer… if only I was thinner” and so on. Accepting your true self is the first step to self-improvement. We need to stop comparing ourselves to others only to find out at the end that we’ve got 10 more reasons to envy them.We all have our insecurities. Nobody is perfect. We always wish we had better things, better features, better body parts, etc. But life need not to be perfect for people to be happy about themselves.Self-improvement and loving yourself is not a matter of shouting to the whole world that you are perfect and you are the best. It’s the virtue of acceptance and contentment. When we begin to improve ourselves, we then begin to feel contented and happy.

Dec 17The single fact that determines the possibility of realising yourdesires is your mindset, which otherwise is known as your thinkingsand beliefs. Your thinkings and beliefs could either be positive ornegative.If you have positive thinking your mindset would be positive and ifyou have nagative thinking your mindset would be negative. It is whatinfluences your inner and outer dispositions and therefore playsimportant part in your manifestations.Although you might have dreams. But dreams are just wishes and theyare the beginning of your awareness of your desires. Your desires toachieve anything must be supported and boosted by your mindsets.Every human being who had achieved greatness began their jouney togreatness with a dream and a positive mindset towards the dream. It isthe burning desire to achieve the dreams in addition to positivethinking towards the dreams that propelled them to achieving the goals.If you have an intense positive thinking and determination towardsany desire you are bound to achieve it easily and in record time.Although it is common to experience some kind of adversity before achievinga goal, and this is why some people do give up on their goals at the vergeof achieving such goals. The only thing such people required was reneweddetermination and positive mindset to carry it to a logical conclusion.Another important impediment to quick success is other people’s reactionand and its effects, as they may affect you negatively. It’s possible thatpeople percieve your goals or dreams as unachievable. They may evenconsider you as an average people who’s not likely to achieve big feats.Do not allow this perception to give you negative thinking about yourself.Other peoples’ reactions and perceptions had created and contributeda great deal of obstacles to lofty desires and their achievements.Do not share from this negativity. Don’t allow anybody to determine yourlife for you.Therefore go out and achieve all your desires – that’swhat God created you to do.I have come across people who were in their early years blighted andprevented from achieving much as a result of the negative thinkings impartedon them. Some were told that their intelligence was below average andwould not achieve much. This mean that their success in life wouldbe minimal. This produced a profound effect on their lifes for a long time,until they decided to face and overcome the devel of negative thinking.And they replaced it with postive thinking.You must believe in yourself and have the desires and positive thinkingsthat your goals will be achieved, no matter the bigness of such goals.Abu Aremu is a motivator and Positive Thinking coach.
