The Weight of The Glass: The Value of Self Reflection


Our lives are made up of thoughts, emotions, beliefs, habits and what have you. All too often we tend to dim our light in order to fit into the crowd, believe what people have to say about us, down talk ourselves into believing we are lesser than what we should be. Did you know our thoughts control what happens to us? I know this may sound like a cliche but believe you me it works. According to research it is reveal that positive thinking is about much more than just being happy or displaying an upbeat attitude. Positive thoughts can actually create real value in our lives and help us build skills and memories that can last much longer than a smile.




Whether good or bad, thoughts do affect us in so many ways, it is the fragment of our reality, we are first prophets to our lives and all of it is determined by our thoughts. I personally have come to realize that life is SIMPLE and EASY if we want it to be and it has worked for me in several cases, and how do I do that? POSITIVE THINKING. . . 


According to Psychological behavior dictionary, Positive thinking is a mental attitude in which we expect results. In other words, positive thinking is the process of creating thoughts that transform our inner energy into good and favorable reality. A positive mind is an optimistic mind, it awaits happiness, good health and a happy ending in any situation. Negative thoughts make us sad and positive ones make us happy, but neither of them are closer to the truth. Neither of them has a bigger chance of happening, so let's understand how our thoughts affect our moods and attitudes, then let's let them go and live the life that actually is before us in the present moment, and let's be the people we want to be. 


In order for us to be productive in life, we must learn to control our thoughts. We must learn to use the right types of thoughts that enter our minds daily. Also remember that not all thoughts produce actions that lead to results. Only those thoughts that we dwell on predominately are what will lead to results for us.

Here are benefits of positive thinking


  1. It gives us a Better first impression
  2. Positive thinking helps us take better care of ourselves
  3. It helps in fighting depression
  4. A positive frame of mind increases our motivation to succeed and get us what we want. It also motivate us to achieve more than we ever expected.
  5. Positive people bring joy, happiness and uplifting energy, and are fun to be around. They bring light and joy, and energize their environment.
  6. Positive thinking relieves stress -There were moments where I was stressed out emotionally, physical, financially and all the *cially you may know but I always remind, "I can do better" and the next thing, I'll feel at ease.
  7. Negativity can blind people’s mind. If we turn our thoughts from the negative ones into positive, our eyes will be opened and we will see the bottle half full, instead of half empty. We will start to notice solutions and possible ways to solve the problem.
Our thoughts affect our reality. If you want to change your reality, you know where to begin😃😃.

No, Stop Asking For It

The only permission, the only validation, and the only opinion that matters in our quest for greatness are our own.” Dr. Steve Maraboli You might be broke and broken or have random questions like... Am I good enough? Or even smart enough? Beautiful or handsome enough? Why don't I feel content with what I have? I don't see myself talk more about the world seeing me.  One thing you should know is that the world didn't give you permission to be here or even yourself asking to be in the world either. But some of us are still asking for permission but sometimes you have to stop asking for permission, but give the world notice that you have been here, give the world notice that you have played politely long enough, and now it's time to play full out.

Practice To Be More

Image
“I believe that we learn by practice. Whether it means to learn to dance by practicing dancing or to learn to live by practicing living, the principles are the same. In each, it is the performance of a dedicated precise set of acts, physical or intellectual, from which comes shape of achievement, a sense of one's being, a satisfaction of spirit. One becomes, in some area, an athlete of God. Practice means to perform, over and over again in the face of all obstacles, some act of vision, of faith, of desire. The practice is a means of inviting the perfection desired.” ― Martha Graham
