29. Start focusing on the possibility
of positive outcomes
The mind must believe it CAN do something before it is capable of
actually doing it. The way to overcome negative thoughts and destructive
emotions is to develop opposing, positive emotions that are stronger
and more powerful. Listen to your self-talk and replace negative
thoughts with positive ones. Regardless of how a situation seems, focus
on what you DO WANT to happen, and then take the next positive step
forward. No, you can’t control everything that happens to you, but you
can control how you react to things. Everyone’s life has positive and
negative aspects – whether or not you’re happy and successful in the
long run depends greatly on which aspects you focus on. Read The How of Happiness.
