The Power of Positive Thought
By now we have all heard of books and listened to the speeches made by all of these motivation speakers, psychologists and neurologists in regards to the real power of positive thinking. This is not some made up phenomenon; this is now something that has been proven by modern science. If you focus on having a positive out-look and make a conscious effort to rid yourself of all the negative energy and emotion then you will, without doubt, have positive experiences.
What scientists have discovered is that neurological pathways are formed when experiencing emotion. In other words we learn to feel a certain way just like we learn how to tie our shoes or ride a bike, we learn how to be sad or how to be happy. Interesting right? The scary part, and perhaps the great part as well, is that the more often we feel a certain way the easier it is to fall into that same type of mood. The paths that are most often traveled in your brain are, as you would imagine, the ones easiest to follow. So if you have chronic depression there is a physiological cause behind that.
Think of your brain like a road map, with millions of roads leading in all types of directions. Each one of those roads is an emotion or a learned experience or a memory, the interesting part is that memories can be forgotten, things can be learned differently and we can change our moods, or more accurately we can change our default moods. It’s not an easy thing to do to reshape these neural pathways but it is certainly possible. It takes focus, time and desire but the effects are incredible. This phenomenon proves that we have the ability to shape our lives and we can control not only ourselves but the world around us as well, it comes down to one thing, perspective. Change the way you think and you will change the way you feel.
The knowledge we have today is staggering and grows exponentially. We have the ability to completely control our thought process and our feelings, and through doing so we have the ability to change the world around us. Reality is about perception, things are only bad or scary if you believe they are embrace the power of positive thought and watch the amazing results.
