I read a great book "The Power of the Subconscious Mind." by Joseph Murphy. This book has really allowed me to take control of my life. He talks about how you have to focus on what you want and see it in your mind and feeling the joy of having it now. this is a great way to get what you want from life. He talks about having positive conversations in your head...
Do you think the thoughts you think control your life???

I think that when we think either positive and or negative it certainly can impact on how we do take control out of our lives. I had always been a positive type thinking person, however not so perfect where I have slipped into some negative thinking.
I have had my moments of pure negative thought process, which then leads to depression and no umph to move forward in positive ways. I will have to look into the book you mentioned.

I read that book a long time ago and it helped me to get through some pretty awful life experiences. Yeah, even if you do control your thoughts and think only positive things, bad things can still happen to you. The thing I learned is that it is not what happens to us that matters as much as how we handle it. That's when the positive thinking is most useful.
I'm a firm believer in the power of positive thinking. It really can make our lives a lot better.

bad is about perception.. to me life is about learning life changing lesson. God whispers to you and when you don't hear that whisper then you are tap the head, and again when you don't feel that tap you are knocked on your a$$!! It's about listening to yourself to God, to the inner voice so that you don't have to get knocked on your a$$.

Good day 34momma,
Your main topic discussion is truly a timing to my situation right now. As my dilemma really getting into my nerves. My mind suffers unpeacefully thinking about things. How I wish, I can get thru all of this. I am really tired of thinking. I am so depressed.

I am so sorry to hear about what you are dealing with my friend. you need to start writing down what you want out of life. then start to say those things you want to yourself all day long. when you find yourself thinking of negative thing say this to yourself... "I only focus on those thoughts that empower and inspire me to be great."
if you stop yourself from thinking those negative thought and then turn them around to positive things you want from life you will see your mood and attitude start to change to the positive side of thing.

I like talking to myself. Whenever I got some issues I will discuss it first with my ownself. Like having a conversation in your head and talk anything you want and finally come out with the solution. I always do this as I need to decide everything by my own and need to consider about other family members as well. So I want it or not I always think I need to come out with positive thinking in order to solve the issue. Otherwise I will get demotivated and will not able to handle the issue. So it is true to focus , see and feel to have it along with the positive attitude will at least drive us to the right path to choose in our life.(^^)

I belive that if we love ourself we can have a lot of positive thoughts,and will transmit this positive actittude to the others.
The one who is full of love is the one who is always happy.
When you are constantly having love for everyone, you'll have no negativity. Your unselfish love will make you have only positive thoughts and you'll find yourself in constant happiness. Start your day with thinking of all the people you come into contact with. Then take a thought in your mind that you have love for all of them. This thought will help you throughout the day. You'll find yourself accepting others as they are and having good wishes for them.

hi 34momma I think to a large extent that being positive can change your life around if you truly do believe in yourself I have done that when I went to junior and senior college. I saw in my mind what I was going to do and felt it would be good and I sailed through college with a 3.4 average. a lot of times we think good thoughts
things do turn out good but we let negative thoughts creep in we are done for.So I think a lot of what we think does control our life.
