THINK……. POSITIVE!!

What is positive thinking?

It is ‘tough-mindedness’. It is refusing to be defeated; making the best of whatever you have to deal with in life.

The world is made up of two kinds of people….the ‘tough-minded’ and the ‘tender-minded’. The ‘tender-minded’ are the ones who will wilt under pressure; who will not be able to deal with difficult times or with defeats. They are cut to the quick by criticism and easily lose heart. They complain often and fail frequently. They think doom, gloom and failure.

‘Tough-minded’ people come from all walks of life. They are manual laborers, merchants, businessmen, doctors, lawyers, fathers and mothers, teachers and coaches, students and athletes. Young and old, they possess a strong element of toughness. This toughness gives them the inner strength to stand up to difficulty; to have what it takes to take it. The ‘tough-minded’ have confidence. They have a zest for life. They make commitments and fulfill them. They are not afraid of failure. Instead they accept it and learn from it. Indeed, they can turn failure into success.

Believe in yourself. Believe in your life. Believe in other people. Believe in your faith. Believe that you can be ‘tough-minded’. Do that and you will be a positive thinker. A tough-minded, positive thinker. If you make the most of your own capabilities, if you are undaunted and invincible in spirit – you will make the best of every situation and others will find significant value in everything you do.

Positive thinking generates positive results!
