Surfacing Positive Thoughts
Meditation helps you to work on yourself instead of worrying about external situations,
so that you can have a genuine positive influence over circumstances. This shift
in attitude being of the solution and not part of the problem. The positive attracts
the positive, whereas the negative attracts the negative. If there is hate, resentment,
jealousy or revenge in your thoughts and feelings, you will attract people in similar
situations. This is how you think, this is your life.
If you want to be successful when you start or create something new, sow thoughts
full of determination, confidence, perseverance, enthusiasm, positivity and stability;
whether you start a new day, a new job, activity or project, or a new stage in your
career or your life. Creating these kinds of thoughts on beginning any activity
will help you achieve success in your life easily in everything you do.
If you want to change your behavior, concentrate on the thoughts that produce it.
Thoughts are like seeds: our attitudes and our actions sprout from them.

Message for the day 01-02-2013
----------------------------------------------------------
The power of positive thoughts enables others to be free from their worries.
Projection: When someone is going through difficult times there would be
naturally worry and tension. At such times it becomes very natural for us too to
come into tension. However, we don't seem to be able to help the other person in
anyway when we have such thoughts. Instead we only add to the negative thoughts
of that person.
Solution: When we find someone who is having negative thoughts in a difficult
situation, we need to remind ourselves that we are the only ones who can help them
come back to his positivity. It is possible for us to do this only when our own
thoughts are positive. When we train our mind in this way we will be able to maintain
our own positivity which will enable the other person also to be rid of his worries.
