I repel all negativity.

blogadmin — Mon, 16 Nov 2009 15:09:53 +0000

I repel all negativity with a positive attitude and an open mind. My upbeat personality attracts other positive people who surround me with an impenetrable circle of joy.

Joy clings to me like a magnet in every situation that I come across. Even when I face trials, I wear a smile on my lips because nothing can steal my joy. My smile helps me to deter negativity because negativity cannot co-exist with enthusiasm.

The only difference between a good day and a bad day is your attitude. - Dennis S. Brown

I radiate confidence by being thankful and encouraging others. Living a life of thanksgiving helps me to remain positive, even in times of crisis. My attitude is consistently pleasant even if the world around me is unpredictable and pessimistic.

Before I even attempt something new, I believe that I am a winner in my own mind. My mind is filled with positive thoughts, which collide with any destructive thoughts that may try to sneak in.

I lend an ear only to things of value. When people walk up to me and begin to speak, they can sense that I am an optimistic and peaceful person. I repel gossip by ignoring it and refusing to take part in it.

I truly believe that there is good in everyone, and I treat people that way. People respect me because I stay away from negative conversations. My friends know that they can come to me for an uplifting word when they feel discouraged.

Today, I am thinking constructive thoughts. I walk with confidence because I believe that all things will work out in the end.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. How can I attract positive people?
2. What types of conversations do I lend an ear to?
3. How do I greet people?

9 Ways to Pick Yourself Up After Failing

blogadmin — Fri, 30 Oct 2009 15:00:19 +0000

Photo by spike55151Failure is simply a stepping-stone on your way to success. Of course, this doesn’t mean that it’s easy to deal with or something that should be taken lightly, but how you deal with failure will determine not only your future success, but also how easy it will be to achieve.

Everyone has different coping mechanisms and ways they react to failure. However, learning the ways that more often lead you to success can help you enormously!

Here are some tips on how to pick yourself up after you fail:

Learn from your failure. There is a lesson to be learned each time you fail. Discover what this lesson is and keep it in mind during future attempts at success. If you don’t learn from your failure, you’ll keep repeating the same mistakes.
Forge ahead. It’s completely normal to feel like giving up when you’re first hit by failure. The most important part of failure is what you do afterwards. So strive to have confidence in yourself. This experience may very well be your last step before you reach great success!
Surround yourself with good people. It’s a good idea to be surrounded by like-minded and positive people. This is especially important when you’re dealing with the negative emotions that may accompany failure.
- Positive people will inspire you to pick yourself up and go further than you thought you could go.
Set goals. If you’ve failed at a large task, think about setting smaller, immediate goals. If you build your way up to completing a difficult task using small steps, each step may not feel so overwhelming. When you’re finished, you’ll be amazed at what you achieved!
Visualize your dreams. Fight the negative thoughts that creep up after failure by visualizing yourself meeting your goal. Take the time to picture yourself successfully going through each step it will take to reach your goal.
Be enthusiastic. When you first set out to achieve something big, chances are you approached the task at hand with a great deal of enthusiasm. If you meet failure once or even several times, it’s important to maintain the enthusiastic force to give you the energy and drive to continue toward your goal.
Write it down. Keep a journal that details your personal thoughts, goals, and attempts. It will help you stay organized and focused on success. Another good exercise is to write your goal on a piece of paper and place it somewhere where you can see it several times each day to remind yourself to take action toward this desire.
Don’t dwell in the past. The past doesn’t have to be your present or future. Just because you had a setback, it doesn’t mean that it will continue to be the case. The only way to achieve your goals is to keep trying.
Think about the worst case scenario. What’s the worst thing that can happen if you fail? Some people are so concerned with success and have such a horrible fear of failure that they don’t consider whether or not the worst case scenario is all that bad!
- Realizing that failure may only mean a small delay toward your eventual success can alleviate some of your fears and give you the confidence to succeed.

Just Keep Trying

It’s likely that you can think of someone you know who set his or her mind on a goal and would stop at nothing to achieve it. It’s not just some kind of story or fantasy – this could be you, too! Adopt this drive and apply it to your situation.

When you believe in yourself and your abilities, you’ll gain the drive to keep moving forward and you’ll feel unstoppable.

My positive attitude attracts positive people

blogadmin — Fri, 16 Oct 2009 15:32:45 +0000

My optimistic attitude and perspective on life attracts positive people.

As they say, “Birds of a feather flock together.” I show my positive attitude in my words and actions, so others who feel the same way about life are drawn to me. After all, positive people enjoy being around other positive people.

Photo by h.koppdelaneyI feel that things tend to work out for the best and I enjoy sharing my hopes and dreams for a bright future with other like-minded individuals. It’s something we have in common.

A negative person might say that I look at life through rose-colored glasses. They prefer being around other negative people, like themselves, discussing “real” life.

However, I know with certainty that I would much rather have my life than theirs. After all, I am much happier. I seek solutions to my challenges and move forward toward my goals.

Each to their own, I say. This is why I attract positive people.

I find the silver lining in challenges. I take positive action to live the life I desire. And these are the types of things I share with those around me. It is other positive people who want to hear these types of ideas.

Today, I choose to share my positive attitude with anyone who will listen, knowing that those who do are the very people I want to attract into my life.

Self-Reflection Questions:

1. What attitude about life do my conversations reveal?
2. Do I prefer to be around positive people, or people who will listen to my problems?
3. What can I do to strengthen my optimism to attract more happiness into my life?

Do You Have a Prosperity Mindset?

blogadmin — Fri, 09 Oct 2009 15:36:46 +0000

Do You Have a Prosperity Mindset?

If you don’t already have a prosperity mindset, it might be a hard thing to imagine. There are certain ways you can chase your dreams while keeping wealth and prosperity in mind at the same time.

A prosperity mindset encourages you to take action each day to improve your life on numerous levels, such as health, wealth, love or anything else you deem important.

Study The Actions Of Successful People

Perhaps this is the most important suggestion. Learn by example. Find someone successful whom you admire and do what they do. These individuals serve as proof that your dreams can come true.

Find someone who has had the same kind of success that you desire.
Study what they’ve done right as well as their mistakes.

It’s always easier when we have an example to follow. Find a way to ask successful people questions. You might be surprised to know that successful people love to inspire others to find success as well. They know that there’s plenty of success to go around. That’s the prosperity mindset in action!

It’s All About Being Positive

If you believe in yourself, you can achieve your dreams. The moment you think you can’t do something, you can’t. You know that negative feelings arise from time to time and that’s okay. However, you need to keep a positive image of the big picture in your mind at all times.

Picture yourself reaching your goals and imagine how it feels.
Surround yourself with positive people.
Write prosperity affirmations.
Be an open person.

When you open up to new opportunities, you open up to prosperity. Stay motivated and don’t be afraid of change.

Setting Goals And Action Plans

You can dream all day about where you’d like your life to go, but without a goal or an action plan nothing will happen. Take time to think about the big picture and then draw in the lines of how you’re going to get there.

Break down your goals into smaller steps.
Set manageable and achievable goals.
Stick to your plan whenever possible.

Don’t Give Up

You have to have the dedicated motivation and drive to tell yourself that you’ll stop at nothing before you reach success. When you talk to or study the actions of someone who is successful, they’ll likely tell you tales of their many failures. There were probably times when they felt like giving up, but they were able to push through defeat.

Realize that everyone feels like giving up, but we can’t give in to these feelings.
Keep the image of your goal in your mind.
Make changes if you need to, but continue taking action toward your goal.

Get A Life Coach

People with prosperity mindsets are all different. They have different approaches to getting what they want and they have different definitions of what prosperity is for them.

There are certain things they do have in common though. They all have a hungry enthusiasm for life and a positive attitude that they’ll continue to use on the journey forward.

If you feel that you lack any of the core beliefs and are still unsure about whether or not you can adopt a prosperity mindset, you could always look into getting advice from a life coach. They’ll be able to break down your problems and concerns and tailor a plan that will work for you personally.

When you implement these strategies, you’ll gain a renewed prosperity mindset that will help you on your life journey.

Surround yourself with those who think the same. Plain and simple, this means to hang out with positive people. If you spend enough time surrounded by negative people, you’ll begin to complain, whine, and sulk over meaningless things, too.
- Is there someone in your life that you admire because of his or her optimistic outlook? Then that person is someone you’ll want to spend quality time with.
- Engulf yourself in their happiness and positive karma, and you’ll soon be upbeat and positive, too!
Visualize what the future holds for you. We all hold hopes and dreams for our future. Whether we want a better job, a bigger house, a new car, or more money, we all wish and daydream for something.
- Next time you daydream about that new house, actually visualize yourself in the house. Imagine exactly what the house looks like, your family watching television in the living room, and you making their favorite dish in the kitchen.
- Visualization sends a positive signal out to the universe. If you practice it consistently, you’ll be rewarded with what you desire.
Learn to give thanks. Whether or not you realize it, you have much to be thankful for. It’s extremely important that you take some quiet time to give thanks for all that has been given to you.
- Truly search your soul and list everything you’re grateful for. Don’t do this haphazardly! Practice this each and every day, usually upon rising in the morning. As you keep doing this, you’ll discover that you’re receiving more and more to be thankful for.

The principles surrounding the Law of Attraction are quite straightforward. To live the Law of Attraction, you just need an open mind, a willing spirit and a bit of diligence. With these, you’ll soon be praising the success of the Law of Attraction principles yourself.
