The Power that comes with Positive Mental Attitude

Positive Mental Attitude is definitely infectious. Those around you will definitely notice and absorb your positive attitude and it will begin to affect them in a positive way. They will begin to do the same thing you are doing; make a difference in themselves and those around them with the power of their thoughts and their life. If you do nothing but continually think about happiness and success, believe me when I tell you that this will create a difference in the way that people relate to you. People naturally want to be around and are drawn to someone who exudes positive thoughts and confidence. They find themselves wanting to help you, talk to you and will enjoy being in your company. Positive Mental Attitude is powerful. It is empowering and charged with potential. Positive Mental Attitude can brings success and mental tranquility, help you improve any situation; friendships, relationships, work, home, health, and can transform your outlook on life In order to make Positive Mental Attitude yield results, you need to develop a positive attitude toward life, expect a successful outcome of whatever you do, but also take any necessary actions to ensure your success.
The results you will see from Positive Mental Attitude will be long lasting and beneficial, but you have to be dedicated to Positive Mental Attitude, just like anything in life, it is something you must work at to see a positive return. You are OK. You are more than OK, you are excellent, and everything is going to be all right. This must be your mantra, your sole saying in life and absolutely must be the subject of your entire thought process. If you don’t allow this to be the central theme of your being then you are going to continue repeating the same mistakes and failures over and over.

Optimism as a Philosophy

One of my favorite quotes of all time is from Woody Allen, and goes something like this;

“More than at any other time in history, mankind faces a crossroads. One path leads to despair and utter hopelessness. The other, to total extinction. Let us pray we have the wisdom to choose correctly.” - Woody Allen

If that were true, then we would all be in trouble. Luckily, it is funnier than it is true, though it can sure seem that way some days. Also luckily, we don’t have to choose negativity. We can choose optimism. As an Optimist your gratefully accepted challenge is to find a positive in any circumstances. Optimism as a philosophy is a positive and uplifting creed. As an optimist you can affect the entire world with your attitude and actions. To be an optimist is to make the free choice, today, to make the world a better place to be for yourself and those around you. My recommendation is to take on the philosophy of optimism simply because it is the best thing to do for yourself. To be gloomy all the time gets you nowhere. To feel optimism is to feel you can accomplish something. That you can change things around you for the positive and help the world. The love you feel for the world can be expressed through your service to it and to mankind in general. I challenge all to take on some kind of service, whether it be simple humble service or large, grandiose service doesn’t matter. Helping your fellow human beings can be noble, uplifting and can positively affect your own life. Keep a smile on your face and remain optimistic. It can’t hurt, and it certainly can help.

A Fashionable Mantra

"With no God there is no morality." This fashionable mantra is a persuasive refinement of a false philosophy wreaking destruction and mayhem on human happiness. This blatant and illogical maxim manages to express in very sparse prose the incredibly ancient debate over morality being something that is divinely given and one that is utterly determined by human beings themselves. If you accept that morality comes from a God then you have to accept that he controls every aspect of your life. If you cannot be moral without a God, then ultimately accepting religion into your life is paramount to living a life of morality. So be definition, an atheist cannot be moral, and can only live a life of immorality, no matter what his or her standpoint is, philosophy, actions and lifestyle. According to this religious philosophy, to live a moral life one must subjugate one’s own ego and actions to an omnipotent and omniscient God who is the ultimate force for morality and the ultimate judge of your own personal morality. Therefore, to act for oneself, to decide for oneself what is moral and what is not is inherently a selfish and therefore immoral act. Theoretically, even if you are ignorant of a God and know not what you do, you are being immoral, because you haven’t subjugated your entire existence to this moral deity. You must live by “faith” in your God, take all his commandments to you as law, live only by God’s truth, determined by him for you, or you are not living morally and in fact have a fundamental and selfish existence at the core of your life. Again, this doesn’t have any bearing on whether you are doing moral acts, living decently or practicing what a religious organization thinks of as moral and good acts; without a belief in a God you cannot be a moral and upright individual.

Enjoying What You Have

I've always been an optimist I suppose. I always believe that you can overcome if you try hard enough, work hard enough to do so. It isn't easy to triumph, that much is certain, but you can if you try. I guess I don't believe in any no-win situations. There always has to be some kind of benefit, way out or solution to a situation, though it may not always be the one you wanted or counted on. Loving life means embracing it; you have to embrace all of it, not just the good times. If that were true then life would be easy and we'd be more than bored. I believe most people wouldn't truly want to live that life if they knew it was going to be easy day after day, with no challenges, no surprises. You might as well be a sheep or a cow in that kind of existence.

To love life is to enjoy what you have, when you have it. If you don't embrace all that is in your life you quickly find yourself missing out on the best of what life has to offer. Maybe it's your kids, your spouse or significant other, your job, your hobbies. Embrace them now, urgently and enjoy every second, because those moments will not come again. That is one of the certainties about life. This moment will pass on and become the past and you cannot go back and regain it. Love your friends, love your family and enjoy them as they are right now or risk losing those moments and hating yourself for it later.
