MOTIVATIONAL MONDAY WITH DAN: The Power of Positive Thinking (2)
Happy new month and welcome to another week. I continue the series I started last week. Today I share on the benefits of positive thinking. Positive thinking is a productive mindset that is important in reaching fullness and success in life. It can change your life in a great number of ways.
Researchers are finding more and more evidence pointing to the
many benefits of positive thinking and optimism. Such findings suggest that not only are
positive thinkers healthier and less stressed, they also have greater overall
well-being. The rewards of positive thinking extend into many areas of life. If
you are not a positive-thinker yet and wonder why you should try positive
thinking yourself, here are some great reasons for you:
▪Positive Thinkers Cope Better
With Stress:
We can’t live without stress and it’s waiting for
us at every corner. Several studies are now revealing that people who have a
positive outlook on life cope with stress faster and more effectively. They are
less subjected to stress as they don’t have a habit of concentrating on
negative thoughts.
▪Positive Thinking
Is Good for Your Health
Not only can positive thinking impact your ability to cope with stress and
improve your immune system. it also has an impact on your overall well-being.
According to experts, health benefits associated with optimism, include reduced
risk of death from cardiovascular problems, less depression, and an increased
lifespan.
▪Positive Thinkers
are More Resilient
Resilience refers to the ability to cope with life issues and events. Positive
thinking can play a major role in resilience. Resilient people are able to
adapt well in the face of crisis, adversity, trauma or tragedy. Rather than
falling apart or giving up, they have the ability to bounce back and eventually
overcome.
▪Positives Thinkers Are More Successful
Positive people tend not to concentrate on their failures, mistakes and setbacks. Instead, they see more life opportunities. They are open to learning and trying something new. That’s why optimistic people are more productive and successful than pessimists.
?A positive attitude and mindset help you cope more easily with the daily affairs and challenges of life. If you adopt it as a way of living, it would bring constructive changes into your life. I close today’s Motivation Monday with this W. Clement Stone quote: “There is little difference in people, but that little difference makes a big difference. The little difference is attitude. The big difference is whether it is positive or negative.” To your success!
