Positive Thinking: Discover the Power of Positive Thinking and Change Your Mindset to Become an Optimist (Mind Hacks)

I always stress how important mindset is. The technique is something to be learned, but without the determination and empowering beliefs which support success, climbing up that ladder may become too daunting to persist when confronted with bigger and better challenges. That's why such information/reminders are soo important. The author poses simple questions that make it very clear that a positive nature is more appealing. I choose to be around people who smile and are grateful more often than not. Negative energy has a way of stealing positive energy. The book also offers some resources/links that can push you further to embody more empowerment in your life. Sometimes all it takes is a reframe, which sets a foundation if reinforced. For instance, the author draws the distinction of 'can I?' versus 'I can.' One side questions your ability, the other has certainty. And perhaps there is still doubt as you say 'I can.' But I'll tell you what. I know myself and saying I can will promote far more follow through to tackle the sometimes treacherous challenges that I know will fuel massive growth in the long haul. Mindset is everything, where focus goes, energy flows. As the author asserts, I agree that my mind gets cluttered mostly because I allow some negative matter into the crevices of my mind. Doubt brings clutter. I appreciate the author for telling me what I already know because common sense is not always common practice and to talk down on a book speaking about the obvious regarding empowerment is a mindset and perhaps what is holding that person back from the change they desire. Repetition is the father of learning. Let's get it.

The author has worked hard on this book to make it clear and easy reading with all we need to know to become more positive in our thinking and enjoy benefits from doing so. So I recommend reading it thoughtfully. I have one minor problem, though. The author does not support some of his glowing generalizations with factual sources. For instance: “Positive thinking is the best and most powerful tool you can have to achieve happiness and success, etc.” Frankly, I don’t totally agree with this statement—REALITY THINKING, which should include the positive side also, is most powerful and necessary. Another belief: “Positive thinking is all about seeing the bright side of things no matter what.” NO – it is about seeing ALL SIDES of things in order to find best solutions. There is REAL REALITY – not just perceived! BUT – this book is still worth considering and adopting many of its principles into my way of living. It can help us to become clearer on how to recognize and handle our thinking patterns. That’s the bottomline to a more powerful mental attitude. I’ve been mostly positive since my childhood and that’s kept me balanced and hopeful in spite of many problems. I wish more of our leaders in government, business and education were more positive. But I can only have a positive influence on them by first influencing myself! THIS BOOK HELPS ME DO THAT BY: ** Learning more about myself so I know where to begin and where I have to get to. ** How to turn negative “what if’s” into positive “what wins.” ** How to handle jealousy, fear, anger, negative talk and actions, procrastination, mind clutter, shattered dreams. ** Become physically more positive; that is, become more healthy in body and mind. ** Using meditation, writing, play, social situations, smiling, affirmations, prayer, and much more. I CAN RECOMMEND this book with one reservation: the power of positive thinking requires realistic thinking; don’t hesitate to question glowing statements, pat answers to difficult situations, and set-in-concrete solutions. Examining what you read will lead to YOUR way of positive thinking, and that is best.

Thank You for taking the time to write this book, and gather all these thoughts into this wonderful book. Honestly, this book has a lot of great positive energy that kept me wanting more and more. I would most definitely tell people that are interested in keeping the mind in a positive matter to read this.

There were links to the author’s other books. So I guess they are smartly promoting those as well. But I don’t find fault in the advice about positivity in this book. The book states how negative thoughts enter our minds, and honestly until now I hadn’t thought of it that way. As much as positive thinking is necessary, there are instances where it’s not. And the author clearly outlines those. Another book I got on positive thinking goes like this...”optimism and this; optimism and that”. It just a few chapters of not much useful info. This book on the other hand is more detailed and this speaks of how to optimism comes about and how negativity comes about, and states on how exactly to develop a positive mind frame. It also states when optimism is not useful. I honestly feel like checking out some of this author’s other work, particularly those on time management and anger management.

Being optimistic can bring so many things in our lives. It is the most effective tool to achieve happiness and success in life. This book has taught me a lot of things about positive thinking. This is definitely a good book to read especially for anyone who is always a negative thinker. Do not wait your life to totally get ruined because of negative thinking. Start filling your life with optimism and you can see the fruits of it. I am more inspired with this book and I am now really going to see the positive side of all things.
