The Power of Thought

17th June 2010

No doubt some, if not many of those who read this will be aware of the book and DVD “The Secret”, which essentially states that by thinking hard enough and often enough positively, then somehow the things you wish for come through “the ether”. This is not an original idea of course, many have suggested such a thing, Napoleon Hill being one such exponent who wrote the book “Think and Grow Rich”.

Now, I can understand why there could be many people who doubt such beliefs. In fact if it were really that simple, surely everyone would do it. But of course it isn’t so straight forward, and above all you have to firmly and resolutely believe that something good will happen if you think it hard enough.

We all have silly examples of it, although often it can be negative as well as positive. Hitting a golf ball into a lake or a bunker when it would and should be easier to hit it onto the fairway or the green. But there have been times when I have been certain something good will happen (e.g. a new client from a sales meeting), and although I can’t completely explain why, I somehow know what the outcome will be of a forthcoming event or action.

It is not realistic to think that you can suddenly become such a person who always attracts good things, but the power of positive thought can have incredible outcomes, so start as with everything by taking the first steps. Say positive things, (even if you don’t completely believe them) and start to write down all the good things that happen to you, however small, every day. Wake up in the morning and think of all the things to look forward to, and bit by bit you will start to attract more positives into your life.
