11 ways to think positive
Positive thinking is probably the best medicine for our minds. A positive mindset can heal us and change our experience in the world. I am always working on trying to think more positively, so here are some ideas for you.
Don’t be a victim. Asking things like “why does this always happen to me?” is going to get you nowhere. It’s just the facts.
Embrace a growth mindset—learn from your mistakes.
Sometimes when things don’t go your way it’s a sign from the universe. You can say things like, “Thank you Universe, for offering me clarity.”
When you first wake up mentally say to yourself 3 things you are grateful for. Repeat this procedure in the evening.
Know that everything is working out exactly as it’s meant to be.
Good things come to those who wait. If something is taking longer than you want it to, it’s going to be more than worth it I promise. Those who wait reap more benefits than those who get things they want in the short term.
Enjoy the journey. We all are on some kind of journey, from health/fitness to becoming the best version of ourselves. The little moments and tracking progress in the journey can be the most delightful thing. Even if you aren’t where you want to be yet, you can enjoy the process of getting there.
Tell yourself it’s going to be a good day. This one can be hard for me, but it’s something I’m trying to get better at (I can be superstitious).
Implementing a journaling routine daily will dramatically change the state of your mind.
Know that a positive mindset brings positive things. Focus on the good.
Look at positive thinking quotes. Pinterest is a great source. Some of my favorites are:
-You can’t beat somebody who never gives up
-Nothing’s impossible. Impossible says “I’m possible.”
