Positive Thoughts For Success And Self Confidence

Positive thoughts lead to positive actions which often have favourable outcomes. In turn they reaffirm our positive thinking. This is a well known virtuous circle which many of us strive to achieve. Some would even say it is the key to general well being and attracting abundance, be it in terms of money, abilities or relationships.

If we accept there is at least some truth in the beneficial effects of creating and holding onto positive thoughts then the real question is how to achieve this mindset. If you are trapped in a downward spiral of negative thinking it is not always that easy.

Understanding the power of affirmations is merely the first step in creating a positive thinking pattern. Whilst standing in front of a mirror you repeat confident positive statements about yourself. The idea is that by repetition you develop a habit of thinking about yourself in a positive way. This idea is sound but only a small part of the whole technique.

It is all too easy to repeat affirmations whilst secretly not truly believing them. So here is a little trick to make them work.

Understand that your mind processes thoughts in an unusual way. A thought comes in and is either rejected or stored away in your subconscious. It is the subconscious mind that controls most of your daily activities, often called habits.

If you repeat your affirmations but simply reject them, they do not get stored in the subconscious mind. So here is the secret. If you repeat the affirmation and immediately follow it with a question, your mind automatically accepts the affirmation as true and stores it.

Think about it. If somebody says you look great today, your first reaction is probably to deny it and not believe it. If instead you are told you look great and are asked if you had been to the gym today, you would instantly go to answer the question.

It does not matter if you respond yes or no to the question. The positive statement that you look great has slipped past your conscious mind and been accepted and stored. This is because your conscious mind has been kept busy in processing the question and determining the answer.

This is the ultimate key to successful affirmations.

To make this technique work for you, repeat your affirmation and think of a question to follow it. Then answer that question with another positive statement.

An example would be; I am looking slimmer today. How am I going to keep in shape today? I will walk to work.

Also try this with people you know. Give them a compliment and immediately ask them a question. See how easily they
accept the compliment and answer the question rather than try and reject your compliment.

To create a habit of positive thoughts it is important to practice daily for at least thirty days. If you have a collection of these simple little mind skills it will be many times more effective.
