• It was already 10.15 a.m. and I was cursing myself for not getting out of bed sooner and having to rush to get ready for work. After a rushed morning routine and hurried goodbye kiss to my wife, I somehow managed to catch my usual morning train to work. Sitting in the train, and after surfing through a few news articles on my tablet I looked up to ease my neck straining from constantly looking down. I couldn't help but notice the bored, gloomy people around that could not wait to get through the day sooner than they started. With the trademark indifference that defines one of the traits of my city, I looked out the window when the train stopped at a station. I noticed a couple with a bouquet and cuddling up to each other.

This was not something I saw daily and it made me smile.  Suddenly, I checked the date in my tablet hoping I haven’t missed anything. I hadn’t, but in a second it took me right back to the day when I sat at one of these stations with my girlfriend, now my wife, holding hands and looking into each other’s eyes. She had the most beautiful eyes in the world and a smile most assuring. She missed seven trains that day saying each time that she would take the next, not caring a bit about the scolding she would get at home for returning late. We were truly in love. That love was the reason we chose to be with each other. I remembered the time when she packed lunch for me when we were dating. It was the first time she had cooked in her life and she wanted me to be the one to taste it first. I could remember everything from the time we met till this morning when she had that same loving look in her eye when I stepped out for work. I realized how much I loved her and that I was guilty of not telling her off late how much I did. I could have spent the rest of my journey just visiting our memories from the past years, but I said to myself, “Why visit memories when I can create many more beautiful ones?” My work day had just gotten over and I took the next train back home to make her day special.

• It was a usual Sunday evening after my wife and I came back from a quick trip to the mall. I was talking to my mum while my wife was helping prepare for dinner when her dad called. “Hello, hi dad…” is all I could hear as she was moving around while talking to him. It’s been three years since we got married and I cannot recollect many days when he hasn’t called. It’s like a ritual that he follows every single day. He calls either while driving to work before going to bed.

He is a man of few words. I have never had a phone conversation with him lasting more than one minute. He doesn’t have long conversations with his daughter either, but it is enough to make me realize the love he has for her. The assurance of his daughter being fine and doing well lets him sleep peacefully. It touched not only me but also my mother who noticed her talking to him. My mother told me that’s what a father’s love for her daughter is and how special daughters are for them.

It made me appreciate him all the more and consider my wife lucky for having such a loving father. No matter how old daughters become and what they achieve in life, a daughter to her father is always that little darling with a twinkle in her eye. One who makes him the happiest father in the world.

• I had just completed my MBA and come back to my hometown to start a new job in an MNC. Life seemed perfect with the new job and a boss who was also a friend from my college days. I visited his place on a couple of occasions and was waiting to pick him up en route to office one day, when I saw a familiar face in a car coming out of the same building my friend stayed in. While it took me less than a second to recognize the person, it also took me back 3 years to a time when I had a crush on this gorgeous girl. At once, an image of her from then flashed across my mind. She was a fair, petit girl with a million dollar smile. Without speaking a word, she could easily have a conversation through those big expressive eyes and gauge what’s going on in your mind.

She also instantly recognized me with those beautiful eyes and gave back the same angelic smile that always made me go week in my knees. She stopped the car and stepped out to meet me along with this man. I had no clue how to react in front of him and wished I just vanished from there. After a long warm hug she introduced that man to me as her brother. In that moment, I experienced feelings of relief, confusion, joy and concern as I could see her holding back her tears from the happiness of seeing me. Irrespective of her status, I fell in love with her - again. We exchanged numbers and over the next few days I learned her relationship with the other guy did not work out. She was aware of my feelings for her then but never had the courage to contact me thinking I would be married or be in a relationship. My feelings for her had never changed and I was the happiest person to have her back in my life. We are getting married this year and I have no doubt I will be the happiest person. Guess when the love is true, nature conspires to make it happen.

• I had just completed my engineering course and taken up a part time job to support some of my own expenses and further studies as I did not want to burden my mother for such finances. I was diagnosed with jaundice within a few weeks of joining the job and had to be hospitalized for a few days. My mother took me to the best hospital in the city so that my treatment was not compromised and that I could get well soon. I still remember her traveling 20 kms every day to get me home cooked food and staying beside me at the hospital throughout the night. This took a toll on her health as well but that did not deter her from doing what she wanted to. I came back home in a few days only to see tears of joy in my mother’s eyes not caring about her own health. I can never be grateful enough to her for doing what she has done for me and my siblings, and still continues to do so in some way or the other. It is rightly said, no form of love can be purer than the love a mother has for her children. I am lucky to have her as my mother and without her I would never be where I am today.

• I had been preparing for my MBA entrance exams while working but soon realized the work shifts were taking a toll on me and I was not able to concentrate on my studies. I had to quit my job to study for my entrance exams and join a B-School in the next academic year. I got through the entrance exams and secured a seat in one the country’s better B-Schools. I was willing to take an education loan for the course like many other students. More so, as I did not want to put a strain on my family’s resources after my father’s demise. It was my mother who convinced me otherwise and said she would fund my education and it’s only a matter of two years before I can start earning. Despite all my efforts to convince her for a loan option, she did not let me do so. I saw her cutting family costs in order to pay my tuition fees and sacrifice on so many things while I was away. After competing my course and securing a decent job, I one day asked her why she did not let me take a student loan when lot of students did. Her answer was simple, “Son, I did not want you to start your career with paying off a loan”. This left me in tears and realized how unconditional a mother’s love for her child is.

• I was waiting for my train at the railway waiting room as I had reached the station a couple of hours before the train arrived. The waiting room was almost full of people when an elderly couple walked in and started looking for seats. The seat next to me was empty so I offered my seat so that they could sit together. The couple was by themselves and was traveling alone. No one had come to drop them to the station. I could not help but notice how lovingly the man held his wife’s hand and her purse in his other hand. He thanked me and made her sit in one the seats and asked her to remain seated while he got them some coffee. Age had no effect on their love and the man had the same love in his eyes that he must have had for her years ago. He also had this mischievous smile on his face that told me they are old only by age and not by spirit. A little while later, the man came back with two cups of coffee and sat beside her. I was sitting where I could see and hear them and to be honest I could not stop observing them. He had a sip from his cup and said, “I added so much sugar but this coffee is not nearly as sweet as you”. This brought a big smile to the faces of most people who heard him say that to the love of his life.

• A little while later while going towards the train, I asked them how they do managed to keep the love going. Witty as he was, the man retorted, “Son, she was precious to me when we met and she is even more precious to me now”. I got my answer. They were not only with each other but still also appreciated each other’s value which kept the spark in the relationship alive.

• I was driving to work when my car broke down close to a traffic signal. I had to wait till my local mechanic could come to check the problem in the car. At this point, I saw a beggar- old and fragile whose body had withered away due to hunger and old age. I often saw him at the same signal and would occasionally help him with some money. This was the first time I looked at him so closely and was really moved at his condition. I decided to buy him some food so that he could have a decent meal. I got a meal packed from a nearby restaurant and gave it to him which he quickly put away in his bag. I asked him to eat it while it was still hot and he said, “The joy of eating it cold but with my wife will be much more than the joy of eating it hot but alone”. He blessed me and walked away with the food tucked inside his bag. I realized how much he must love and care for his wife. I could only stand in awe of this man who had nothing except love but was not willing to lose even a bit of it. Life can be hard but love makes the journey easier.

How to Celebrate Valentine's Day " relation quotes "

Valentine's Day sets back to around 3rd century in Europe, according to a legend^[1]. The legend's love and affection has been carried on throughout history. February 14th is the day to spread the love and exchange affectionate gifts to one another. Here is an article of how to celebrate Valentine's Day.

steps 

1 _ Spend quality time with a loved one. Go out to a nice restaurant or create a special dinner. Cuddle with your significant other on a couch and watch a movie. Try to avoid distractions, such as surfing the internet, chatting on the phone while around people, or deciding to do other things by yourself or with another group of people.

2 _ Make a homemade card for someone. The card will have more meaning to it if it's created by you instead of buying a card from a store. Use your own words to describe the person you're giving it to. Create a poem or a note of appreciation. Add a little "copyrighted" symbol on the back of the card for fun.

3  _ Think of candy, chocolate, and sweets. If you are getting something for a school classmate, get a small box of those sugary hearts with the little sayings on them. If you wish, you can make a chocolate recipe along with someone else on Valentine's Day.

4 _ Express your words with a rose. While lavender (or purple) are seen more on first dates and secret "love at first sight" times, white roses are a tradition for weddings. Pink, orange, and yellow roses are viewed as admiration, excitement, and friendship respectively. The yellow and pink are very similar and can be used for the same events. Finally, the red rose, as the color expresses and emphasizes beauty and love. Red roses are traditionally exchanged by couples and people whom wish to express their feelings towards another.

Enjoy Valentine's Day alone. Who says that people need a companion for this one day of the year? Treat yourself to a spa or a long bubble bath. Take a long drive and enjoy the scenery. If it's too snowy or iced down, stay in and watch sports games or that romantic movie on cable. Some people get lucky on this day

Legitimate Home Business - Establishing And Maintaining Your Home Based Business

Many people choose to work from home these days, and most new businesses start off in the home of their owners- managers. If you're thinking about basing your business in your house, to begin with, you may need to get used to a new way of working, especially if you've previously been working in a more formal, structured setting. To start, ask yourself the following questions;

* Can I handle the social isolation of a home office on a full-time basis?
* Am I a self-starter?
* How do I rate as a decision-maker, organizer, bookkeeper, and secretary?
* Could I separate business and personal life if both were under the same roof?
* Am I a workaholic and would an office at home worsen that problem?

In addition to the above personally asked questions, there are a few generally and frequently asked questions which are nevertheless crucial to building a successful home based business. These include;

Is working at home as wonderful as it sounds? Yes and no. For convenience, the cost, and comfort, there's nothing quite like a home office. Low overhead, no commuting hassles, no office politics, and setting your own hours are a few pluses. On the minus side, there's only you- and if you're not disciplined, you'll be spending more time with the kids, the pets, or snacking than working where you belong. It can be a simple formula for failure.

How can I make a home-based business seem professional to customers? It depends on the type of business, but start with a professional attitude and then buy some good-looking cards and stationery. Think about adding an attractive logo and using a two-color design on business cards, letterheads, and envelopes. Having a well-produced flyer or brochure that describes your business is also a plus; good customer service will do the rest.

E-commerce is relatively easy to conduct from a home office, especially with a website that attract customers. Clients don't really need to know whether you work at home or in a sophisticated office building, so long as you get the job done for them. As with your other materials, the website should reflect the personality and professionalism of your business.

What sort of investment is necessary to outfit a home office? This, too, depends on the type of activity you'll be doing- whether it be business or telecommuting, or a personal or family office. But generally, spending between $2,000 and $4,000 should make you well equipped and comfortable. Make a list and plan a sensible budget beforehand. You don't want to blow your entire savings on setting up the office, then have nothing to spend on attracting business.

The Real Way To Use Positive Thinking

Controlling your thoughts is very important if you want to be at your best.  If you are thinking you are worthless they it will show in your personality.  If you have thoughts of being the best, then you'll start doing things and acting your best.  In this article I'm gonna show you how to use positive thinking the right way. Here's what you need to do:

1. Sit in an undisturbed area and close your eyes. Clear your mind and focus on your breathing. Your breathing should be natural and steady. Your heart rate should have a steady and relaxed rhythm. We will call this your "relaxed and ready" state.

2. Keeping this "relaxed and ready" state, you will add new empowering thoughts. You must maintain this state the whole time of thinking these thoughts. If you have any doubts, fears, anxieties, etc. you must drop the thought immediately by phasing out your thoughts. Here's why: When you think of the new positive, empowering thoughts, they may feel unnatural and fake. This will lead to thoughts of doubt. When you have doubts in your head you will realize that your breathing and heart rate will be irregular and possibly labored. When this happens you will phase out the thoughts and go back to clearing your mind until your breathing and heart rate is back to being steady and relaxed. Once you are relaxed and ready, you can think the empowering thought again.

3. You will repeat the process until you feel comfort in that thought. Any time you think that thought and feel doubt, fear, anxiety, etc., you will phase out the thought, clear your mind, and try again. After you do this a few times, notice how empowered you feel. You will notice how confident you are with that particular thought and you can now say, "I can do this".

When you clear out the negative thoughts and insert positive thoughts then you'll notice that you'll have no internal conflict, sabotaging your success.  When people start thinking positive, the first thing that starts to happen is your mind will tell you that this is not who you are. When you phase out those thoughts until they no longer exist, you're gonna notice that you'll be more in tune with the new positive thought. You may be able to fail without thinking it's the end of the world. That's right..failure is a big part of success. Without failure, you may not appreciate success. Practice clearing your mind for at least ten minutes a day (or throughout the day) and you will notice that that alone can do wonders for your confidence. Add the element of positive thinking and you may feel like failure doesn't phase you...it's only part of the process.

The Art of Thinking Clearly

The first step to clear thinking is to clear away any emotions, bias, trivia and preconceived notions that we may have regarding the decision that we are about to make.  Concentrate on the information that is essential to making the right decision.

Facilitate your clear thinking by using these lessons:

1. Round up more than the usual suspects.  Get down and dirty with the research that you need to do and assemble all of the facts.  You are going to get better data by asking more and better questions.  Clear thinking requires observation and a willingness to look beyond the obvious.
2. Look for hidden opportunities.  When trying to make a decision many of us get stuck in either/or scenarios.  Move beyond these and think of an alternative form of action.  Each time you think of another avenue, see if you can think of at least one more.  This will give you more choices when it comes to making your final decision.
3. Use confidence to keep your cool.  Stand back and look at all of the good decisions that you have made in the past.  Clarity of thought requires you to have trust in yourself and in your decisions no matter what mistakes you may have made in the past.
4. Become an amiable skeptic.  View things with a critical eye.  Reserve judgment if you feel that you are being moved in any one direction against your will.  Clear thinking requires that you maintain your skepticism but you want to take care that you don't move the decision making process into an adversarial arean.  Have fun with the process.
5. Create a balance sheet.  Take a pen and paper and write down all of the options that you have come up with during your research.  List all of the advantages and disadvantages of each option and rate each one on a scale of 1-10.  One of the major components to thinking clearly is that you remove emotion from the decision making process and this quantification of the options allows you to do just that.
6. Drop your musts.  We all have a tendency to turn our major desires into must haves.  This, however, limits your ability to think objectively.  The key to clear thinking is to remain flexible.
7. Take a knife to the big decisions.  You wouldn't want to try to swallow a steak whole and you should not try to take a large problem and tackle it full on.  You can chunk the bigger problem down into smaller problems and tackle those in succession until you have dominated the large issue.

Positive Thinking Can Bring About Postive Outcomes

Attitude is everything. It is the lifelong gift we give our children. They listen to your response and mimic your reactions.  You can decide to have a positive attitude or negative attitude.  Whichever choice you make, life will follow accordingly.

Life is full of surprises and not all of them good. The old saying "bad things happen to good people" is so true. As we progress through our life stages we occasionally get knocked back a step or two. Maybe we lost our job, faced serious illness, made financial decisions that seemed logical at the time or any other unexpected calamity. It is how we handle them that make us a survivor or a victim.  It is our state of mind that determines the ultimate outcome.

When a negative event happens, through no fault of our own, we are most definitely a victim. We have an absolute right to wallow in self pity and ask the inevitable "Why me?" We feel sorry for ourselves and occasionally wonder how to move forward. We feel the loss of progress and are burdened with the weight of the new situation. Once the initial shock passes and reality sets in, we must make the decision to turn our emotions towards survivor mode.  That means maintaining a positive attitude.

Most of us recognize that the hard times we have gone through made us who we are. We may be stronger now, more cautious, more appreciative of our many blessings, more willing to take risks. Whatever your experiences have been, they are now a part of you.  What attitude do you maintain? 

What needs to remain a priority is your attitude towards the event. Once the shock wears off, take a look at how you are going to respond. Are you going to retain the defeatist attitude or are you going to set the example for your children? What are you going to say: Life is unfair! Or… Not only will we survive this setback, we will learn and grow from it and be better people for it. Your children will adopt your response. It is the same old concept: Is the glass half full or half empty?  Your family deserves your healthy state of mind.

Show your children that you are prepared for life, even when it is unexpected. Through positive thinking, show them that they can be a part of the solution instead of the problem. Use the difficult times as well as the smooth sailing periods for teachable moments. Be realistic but upbeat. Look for solutions. If you are only coming up with one solution than you haven't looked closely enough.

Set your mind to survivor mode and make sure your actions reflect the same. Let your children know that, as a family, you will carry on and be thankful for your many blessings. If there is anything you can do to change the situation, make a plan and move forward to correct the issue. If it is out of your hands, accept the change and move forward. Either way, try to stay focused on what you have not what you lost, again, positive thinking needs to be in the front of your mind.

With your new state of mind, your children will automatically assume that every obstacle can be dealt with and that regardless of what lemons are thrown their way, they can choose to make lemonade!

Reality, at times, can test the best of us. However, with your children watching your every move, it is too important to set the standard.  Empower your family with attitude that grants them the state of mind to succeed even through difficult times.

Positive thinking will bring about positive outcomes.

Positive Thinking Techniques and Emotional Balance

Your thoughts have a direct impact on your emotions. Your emotions determine your well being. Your emotions determine whether you are happy or unhappy. Your thoughts determine whether you feel good about yourself, others and the world.

The people you think about become the most important people in your life. The events or things you think about become the most important events and things in your life. So, if these people, events or things make you feel unhappy, angry, hateful, worried or agitated, they are negative. If they make you feel happy, balanced and good, they are positive.

You can control your thoughts. To control your thoughts, you must assert control over your thoughts and your beliefs. You must adopt open and positive beliefs. Open and positive beliefs lead to positive thoughts. Negative and rigid beliefs lead to negative thoughts.

You can change your beliefs and thoughts through application of your conscious will and intent to the task. As you consciously adopt positive and open beliefs and change your thoughts from negative to positive, you will feel more positive, balanced and happy.

Negative thoughts are thoughts that generate anger, fear, hate and jealousy. These emotions felt on an on an ongoing basis and related ongoing thoughts, lead to depression and anxiety. They also will drain your energy, the energy you need for life and happiness.

Positive thoughts are thoughts that make you feel happy and good about your self, others and the world. They are thoughts that make you feel balanced and peaceful. To change your thoughts and thought patterns, you must be mindful of your thoughts and emotions. Mindfulness enables you to monitor your thoughts and emotions. Then, you must consciously apply your will and change them from negative to positive.

Positive thoughts require open beliefs and an open mind. This requires you to let go of rigid and narrow beliefs and change them to positive and open. You then use your mind more for observation and tasks and less about judging and analyzing people. Positive thinking requires you to forgive self and others and to let go of past wrongs and the grip of past traumas and injuries. Positive thoughts require you to adopt positive beliefs about yourself and the world. This may be difficult especially if your life experiences and authority figures in your life taught you otherwise. But, there are many ways to look at yourself and others. Begin to look at "failure" and "injuries" as lessons and nothing more. Then let go of them. This is important for positive thinking.

Rigid beliefs lead to negative thoughts. This is because rigid beliefs lead to opinion and judgment thoughts. This is especially true with respect to rigid opinions and beliefs about self and others. Opinion and judgment thoughts lead to negative emotions because they empower ego and a feeling of superiority. This ultimately leads to angry and even hateful thoughts. These thoughts may lead to angry and hateful acts and speech, which brings in a lot of negativity. So, for positive thoughts and positive thought patterns, it is essential to open your mind, let go of negative and rigid beliefs and stop ongoing opinion/judgment thoughts. Become more of an observer and suspend judgment and opinion to the extent possible.

Go with the flow. Avoid clash of wills and conflict. This leads to negative thoughts and negative thought patterns. Accept others for what and who they are and what they believe. Do not try to change them. Your efforts to change others will lead to negative thoughts. The only person you can change is yourself. So, focus your efforts on that task.

The conscious mind is affected by subconscious beliefs. So, for positive thinking and positive thought patterns, it is essential to change your deeply held beliefs from "negative and rigid" to "positive and open/flexible." Likewise, it is essential for you to adopt positive and kind beliefs about yourself and purge conscious and subconscious memories of the painful past and past injuries. This will quiet the negative and critical inner voice and replace it with a kind and positive inner voice.

In order to change beliefs and open your mind, do the meditation and visualization exercises and positive affirmations described below.

Positive thinking requires you to open your heart and fill yourself with unconditional love. This leads to an ongoing feeling of inner peace and happiness. It is difficult to have positive thoughts when you feel bad. So, it is important to cultivate ongoing feelings of peace and happiness. These wonderful feelings you will experience in your heart and torso. This is done by the meditation and visualization exercises described below and by purging negative emotions you may be holding onto - i.e., anger, fear, anxiety, sadness and guilt.

Thoughts that make you feel agitated, angry, afraid, depressed, hateful or jealous are negative thoughts. If you feel agitated, then change your thoughts. Otherwise, stop your thoughts altogether and be in the moment. When you experience life in the moment, you will stop negative thoughts. When you experience life through your senses and not through your thoughts, you will be more happy, balanced and peaceful.

Positive thoughts are thoughts that are focused on positive and productive activities such as work, errands, studies and enjoyable events. They are thoughts that are focused on loved ones and how to make loved ones happy. Negative thoughts are often thoughts that are focused on the painful past, the anxious future or the people who hurt you. These negative thoughts crowd out thoughts about the positive, kind and loving people in your life and happy memories.

Positive thoughts tend to be focused thoughts. Negative thoughts tend to be unfocused thoughts. Negative thoughts tend to come from the side and back of the head. Positive thoughts come from the middle of the forehead. Thoughts become unfocused and then go negative if we do not control them. Unfocused thoughts often lead to a negative inner voice. This negative inner voice is often critical and judgmental toward self and others.

Positive thoughts are focused thoughts related to details, specifics and processes. They are not thoughts about results. They are focused on positive and productive endeavors and activities - work, hobbies, errands, celebrations, vacations, etc. They are not thoughts about "what if" scenarios and future possibilities. They are not thoughts about revenge or getting even.

Positive thoughts are focused, centered and balanced thoughts. They are thoughts focused on the moment and on task. Of course, they can be focused on plans. But, this focus would be on composing and implementing plans. This focus would be on the details and specifics of plans. Positive thinking includes thoughts related to the development and execution of plans related to work, errands, hobbies, vacations and celebrations.

Negative thoughts are ego-oriented thoughts. The ego-oriented thoughts that are negative are self -oriented thoughts that make you feel unhappy or bad. These include thoughts in that judge self or others, thoughts that make you feel like a victim, feel self pity, feel fear or feel anger or hate. They include thoughts about controlling, hurting or deceiving others. To be a positive thinker one must elevate soul over ego in governance of self. Meditation and visualization will help achieve this. This will subdue ego and at the same time it will subdue negative thoughts, negative thought patterns and a negative inner voice.

To have positive thoughts, positive thought patterns and a positive inner voice, you need to assert control of your thoughts through application of your will. The locus of your will is the middle of your forehead. The middle of you forehead is the place where you focus your thoughts. The middle of your forehead is the place where you control your thoughts. Focus on the positive and still the inner voice.

Unkind and deceptive acts and speech lead to negative thoughts. So does hurting, deceiving and slandering others. To achieve positive thinking, control your words and acts as well as your thoughts.

As mentioned above, what and who you focus on become the focus of your thoughts. Your thoughts then determine your emotional state. But, you have the power to control and focus your thoughts. You just need the will and the tools to make it happen

Here are some tools:

Distract and substitute

When negative thoughts come in, distract and substitute. Your mind can only focus on one thing at a time. When it comes to negative thoughts, work with Substitution and Distraction. Substitution - Substitute positive thoughts and images for negative ones. Switch to thoughts about or images of positive, happy and loving people in your life. Alternatively, focus on pets or scenes that make you feel positive and happy. Distraction - Distract yourself by bringing your mind back to the moment - i.e., substantive aspects of work, process and details of things we encounter in the moment. Focus on the moment with full attention and awareness. Do not analyze or judge. Do not focus on results. Do not focus on the past or future. Stay in the moment. Observe and focus on details, process and substance. When in the moment, do not let thoughts take you somewhere else, whether it is the past, the future or another place. Each time they do, re-focus on what we are doing and where you are in the moment. Do not let thoughts rob you of the precious moments of life.

When negative thoughts come in, do the following when negative thoughts come in: smile, close your eyes and do some deep breathing exercises. Breathe deeply into your heart or abdomen and focus only on your breath. Alternatively, stop thinking altogether. Put your hand over your heart and shift your energy there. Now, just be in the moment. Fully experience the moment in your body center and your senses and not in your thoughts. Become an observer. Suspend judgment or analysis of what you encounter in the moment. Just encounter it.

Distract the negative thoughts with music, prayer and mantras. Focus on lyrics, prayers and words. By focusing on music prayer and mantras, your mind will not be able to focus on the negative thoughts. Focus on others who you encounter with some positive words and conversation, some kind words and acts.

Instead of thinking about someone who hurt you or someone you do not like, substitute positive thoughts and images of people or pets you love, who are happy and make you happy. If you are thinking about a negative and painful event or place, then substitute images of beautiful places and happy memories. Smile and hold these positive thoughts and images for awhile. Alternatively, call a friend or family member and chat with them. Fully engage with people and pets. Get into nature and breathe nature deeply into your lungs, smile and enjoy the beauty of nature. Smile gently. Life is good.

Center, ground and focus

Sit comfortably. Focus on an object or symbol with your eyes open. Now, close your eyes and visualize that symbol in the middle of the inner screen in your forehead. Whenever a thought comes into your head, re-focus more intensely on the object or symbol. Negative thoughts and a negative inner voice come from the back and sides of the head. This exercise helps you develop focus.

Focus comes from the middle of your forehead. The middle of your forehead is the seat of your will and intent. Positive thoughts are focused thoughts. They are thoughts related to the details of positive things such as errands, work, studies and process. Through centering, grounding and focus, you can stop the negative inner voice and negative thoughts,.worried and angry thoughts and critical and judgmental thoughts about self and others. Through centering, grounding and focus, you can stop obsessive thoughts and ruminations. Distract and substitute or go to no thoughts.

For grounding, sit comfortably with your eyes closed and your feet firmly planted on the ground. Take off your shoes.

Now, with your eyes closed, focus your attention on the middle of your forehead and sit straight. Posture is important. Negative thoughts and a negative inner voice come in when we are un-focused and slouching. So, when you walk or sit hold yourself erect and center yourself in the middle of your forehead and in your heart or body center.

Visualize a big white sun where your heart is located. Close your eyes and put your hand over your heart and shift your consciousness and energy to that spot. Alternatively, visualize an orb of white light above your head and below your feet and visualize that a beam of white light shoots out from the orbs and the light beams meet at the center of your body. With respect to centering in the middle of your forehead, put your fingers on your forehead and shift your energy and consciousness there. Center and focus. To fortify your ability to center and focus, do directed or seed mediation set forth above.

Positive affirmations, higher self and inner child meditation/visualizations

Positive thoughts come from positive beliefs and an open mind and heart. A positive inner voice will come when you cultivate inner peace, kindness, patience and happiness. Positive thinking requires us to love and honor ourselves and others and be kind to ourselves and others. This requires us to get rid of the judgmental and critical inner voice.

To cultivate a kind and positive inner voice, we need to stop beating ourselves up about the past. We need to let go of the painful past. The past is over and cannot be changed. To cultivate a kind and positive inner voice, we can change the future by changing ourselves in the now. This requires us to forgive ourselves and others for the past and let go of and detach from the past. We do this so we can move forward in a positive and happy state of mind.

An important aspect of positive thinking is to develop positive beliefs about ourselves. Positive affirmations are an essential way to do this. Positive affirmations include the words "I am" and an adjective. For example, we say over and over to ourselves "I am happy, peaceful and serene. I am love, loved and lovable. I am perfect just the way I am." There are many other positive affirmations. See YouTube for positive affirmation exercises.
Higher self and inner child visualization and meditation exercises will help build up your inner power, self confidence, self esteem and happiness. This is important to do to achieve a positive inner voice.

To do this, you must connect and integrate with your higher self (i.e., your soul) and inner child. Your higher self/soul is all loving, happy, holy and peaceful. Your inner child is full of happiness, wonder, energy and fun. When we are fully connected to and integrated with our higher self and inner child, we feel happy, peaceful, complete and confident. We have high self esteem, a lot of energy and we enjoy life.

In meditation, visualize a pure white angel that looks just like you (but is happy, peaceful and full of love and white light). See an energy cord connect you to that angel from your heart. Visualize that angel (your higher self) now merge with you. Visualize you as a child playing and having fun. See an energy cord connect you to that child from your heart. Visualize that child (your inner child) now merge with you. Visualize that you hug that child and tell him or her that he or she is safe and to just have fun. Take a pillow and visualize that pillow is you as a child and hug it. Tell the inner child you love him or her. Now, become the loving inner parent to our inner child. Indulge your inner child everyday by allowing yourself to have fun and do things that make you happy.

Heart-melt exercise

Negative thoughts, negative thought patters and a negative inner voice come from past traumas and stress that we hold onto. Traumas and stress often cause a hard energetic shell to form around the heart (or heart chakra). This is done to protect us from ongoing emotional injury in a "cruel world." This then empowers our ego to govern self, leading to negativity. For positive thinking, we must melt this hard energetic shell around the heart. In meditation, close your eyes and visualize a hard gray shell around your heart. Visualize a white light orb above or in front of you. Visualize that this white light orb shoots out laser beams that blast the hard gray shell around your heart. Visualize the hard shell melt and your heart become pink, open, soft and vital.

Now do some white light meditation to restore your connection with soul and spirit. Sit comfortably or lie down. Close your eyes and focus on your breath. Get relaxed. Visualize a bright white sun where your heart is and later visualize this bright white sun in front of you. Visualize that this bright white sun radiates bright white light in your entire body and head. Visualize that the white light fills up your entire body and head and creates an intact white aura all around you.

Clasp your hands together and visualize this white light goes out three to six inches to a foot from you. Now hold the visualized white light there with the intention of raising your vibrations. Visualized white light cleanses and heals the energy body and raises one's vibrations. Take a few seconds each day to visualize that you are filled up with white light and that an intact shell of white light surrounds you. This will help protect you from negative energy.

Over time, these exercises will work to connect you with soul and spirit. This will enable you to cultivate an ongoing feeling of love/peace, happiness and joy. This state of being will automatically cause your ego to be subordinated to your soul in governance of self. The result will be more positive thoughts. You will then substitute inner power, high self confidence and high self esteem for ego.

Meditation/visualizations to get rid of negativity

Negative thoughts, negative thought patters and a negative inner voice often come from negative energy that is stored in us at the cellular level. This stored negative energy often comes from stress and trauma from the past, especially from childhood. We hold onto these negative and painful events at the cellular level, in the subconscious mind. They are often responsible for changing our beliefs from (a) fluid, open and positive to (b) negative and rigid. Because of traumas and stress (especially childhood ones), we harden our hearts and believe the world is a dangerous place. Our ego and ego-centric thoughts step up to protect us. Instead, they only bring us negativity and unhappiness.

So, we must burn off the negative energy that holds these painful memories at the cellular level and in the subconscious mind. A good way to do this is to raise your body's vibrations through the violet flame exercise. Sit comfortably. Close your eyes and focus on your breath. Get relaxed. Hold your hands open in a position of receiving from the Universe. Visualize a violet flame in front of you, like a campfire flame. Invite that flame into your body and feel it fill your body up from your belly to your throat. Feel it raise your vibrations as it burns off low vibration negative energy in you. Put citrine (high vibration crystal) over your heart or hold citrine in your left hand when you do this exercise. Citrine will help raise your vibrations. This will help burn off subconscious memories. So, you do not even have to bring these memories to the surface to get rid of their negative effect on you.

Here is an exercise to get rid of stored anger, fear, anxiety and painful and negative memories: Visualize the image of the painful event from the past or the image that worries you about the future. Close your eyes and visualize this image in a glass ball that hovers a few feet in front of you. Put your hands on this visualized ball and push it with force deep into the ground. Hear and feel the energy cords that attach you to the image snap and fall away. Do this over and over until the image no longer has an energetic grip on you and all related anger and fear melt away. As you push the ball deep into the ground say the following to yourself: "Into the ground, into the core go away, melt away, gone. Visualize a bright white sun where your heart is and later visualize this bright white sun in front of you. Visualize that this bright white sun radiates bright white light in your entire body and head. Visualize that the white light fills up your entire body and head and creates an intact white aura all around you.

Clasp your hands together and visualize that your heart is a sun of white light. Visualize that you send white light from your heart through your body Visualize that this white light goes out three to six inches to a foot from you. Now hold the visualized white light there with the intention of raising your vibrations. Visualized white light cleanses and heals the energy body and raises one's vibrations. This will help burn off stored negative energy.

Alpha, beta, delta and theta brain wave entrainment

These exercises can be found on YouTube. They provide sound therapy that will help bring brain waves and brain chemistry back to normal. This will help when it comes to positive thinking.

Cutting energy cords

The ego spins out energy attachments to people, things, substances and beliefs to fill a void. These energy attachments lead to unbalanced thoughts, obsessions, ruminations, lusts and addictions. As we build up the white light within and connect and integrate with higher self and inner child, the void disappears and we will not spin out these energy cords very much. In order to substantially reduce ruminations and obsessions and establish balance, it is important to cut energy cords. Energy cords should be cut with anyone or anything you have obsessive and ruminating thoughts about or ongoing negative thoughts about. This will help you achieve positive thinking and maintain inner peace, happiness and balance. So, to cut energy cords, do the following: Sit down and close your eyes. Visualize the energy cords that attach you to people, things, substances, ideas and beliefs that cause unbalanced or obsessive thoughts and addictions. Visualize them as cords connected to your heart and torso. With your weak hand visualize that you grab the cords. Then with your strong hand visualize that you cut them and sever them from you with a visualized knife or scissors. Visualize that the energy cords fall away.
