Some positive thoughts

7th March 2013

What a beautiful day it was yesterday, and I’m prepared to bet that a lot of good business was concluded as a result. I often talk about the positive things in life creating more positives, and I have no doubt because people were feeling good that the extra spring in their step helped to encourage sales, and also made others more open to buying.

Of course it is ridiculous that something as superficial as a sunny day should have this effect, but everyone I met was in a good mood. So wouldn’t it be great if we could create this more often, and I see no reason why not, after all it is only a state of mind.

Conversely I met someone who was telling me how stress was the root of all evil, illness, tiredness, mistakes and a lot of negativity generally. Stress can be caused by all sorts of things, but once again, it is largely a state of mind, which we either allow to take hold, or we reject.

The point is, whichever way we choose to be, it is our choice. No-one tells us to be in a good or bad frame of mind, and although circumstances and our surroundings are bound to affect us to some degree, ultimately we are the ones who make the decision as to how we react, how we will feel, and then how we project this.

I hope and believe that most people see me as a happy smiling person. I have a hugely positive attitude to life, and as a result on the whole I am a “lucky” man. However, there is nothing to stop anyone being that way, after all remember what it felt like yesterday, remember all the good things that happened as a result, put it in a bottle, and reproduce that same positive outlook wherever you need to.
