Look For Good Things
>> Sunday, February 7, 2010
There are plenty of people one can see everywhere. I have seen many people crying and laughing based on the matter they undergo. I find some messed up in the tears and some busy spreading the aroma of happiness in a most fabulous way. I say, take a look at the HAPPIEST people you know and you will find that they haven't had a easy life, in fact they had the toughest life one can imagine. People who are successful don't get it for free. They had to do perhaps they never wanted to.
Have you noticed one thing that if we look for good things in people or in places we find it, and when we look for bad things we do get that too. Does it not seem ridiculous. But it's not.. So it's not changing your situation that makes you happier. It's changing your THINKING!
If you start finding faults in the Job you do, in your mother, in your wife, or in your partner you would certainly get a plenty. Some people spend there life finding faults in everything they are engaged in. They are fault finders and they proudly say.. "I am being realistic". I laugh at these people. They are not realistic but they are the slave of the negative emotions that they tame in them. They are negative people.
Happy people continually ask themselves,
"What is good about this situation?"
To justify this I would like to site an example
Say, if you are stuck in a traffic jam. If you are a man with positive attitude then you would think of finding good of the situation. You will think of doing something good at the present situation. Consequently you may may have the following things to do..
1. You have time to listen to your favorite music
2. You can plan the later half of your day in the mean time.
3. You may recall good times you had with your girl friend etc..
and a negative person gets frustrated and starts abusing the situation, screams and subsequently falls flat with nothing constructive work done.
One should start his day with a commitment, jot down the tasks he is supposed to do when he wakes up and start the day in most happy way. Noting down the tasks to be done doesn't let you feel sorry for any job that may be left undone at the end of the day. An honest commitment lets you fight with your strongest enemy who is no one but yourself.
So be happy, change the way you think if you can't change the situation. Be flexible and be open to all possible changes as it is bound to take place.. change is most permanent entity.
I hope I am successful in conveying the message of being happy...

Yes, Anand, You got it! I have worked on changing my thinking for quite some time. It is still a work in progress, but many changes have come about simply because of the way I have changed my thinking. I have now made some truly special friends who are helping me find my way. Thank you
Well being positive everytime can lead u to b b ignorant of the upcoming opportunities
Imagine a world where everyone is positive.Do you think we can be happy by being positive. NO i do not think so.I have tried being positive for a period of time and i felt i was living an artificial life. We all know that nature is balanced ie equal positive and equal negative which creates a dynamic balance. If positive was so good the why is nature balanced? Negative is not always bad,Many times more negative produces a positive result. in Mathematics too when Negative is multiplied it becomes positive.Talk of being positive towards being negative LOL. I would neither think positive only or Negative only, Instead of positive thinking i would like possibility thinking. Most of our positive exterior is used to camouflage our interior negative that is FEAR. I think there should be an exclusive post on FEAR for it plays one of the most important role if not all important role in our lives.
Hey Alisha would you please elaborate the sense you want to convey. Yes, you are not wrong but positivity can't be discarded for the reason you have stated. "Jedicool" the person who made a comment is really true about his point. He said "Most of our positive exterior is used to camouflage our interior negative that is FEAR"... yes, it's correct.
I would like you to elaborate the exact sense of your comment.. Take care
