LIFE: Positive thoughts

Recently a lot of research has gone into the as yet unexplored power of the mind-how, by merely thinking and focusing on positive thoughts, hopes and aspirations, one can make them actualize into living realities. It is explained by some as the science of energy, and the ‘law of attraction’ by others: by thinking positive thoughts, one exudes positive vibes into the universe, and simultaneously, attracts positive energy to one’s self from the cosmos.

For many old school-ers, however, such abstract concepts are hard to visualize and digest. Hence for them, it can be explained in the words of the Bible “Through prayer, you can gain control of any negative, self-defeating thoughts and turn your life around. Just tell yourself: “I can do all things in him that strengtheneth me.” (Philippians 4:13) Which explains the above mentioned concept in simpler words: by keeping a positive outlook to life, by hoping, meditating and reflecting upon all that is positive, life tends to become miraculously easier.
