Have you noticed how optimists succeed in almost everything, while the pessimistic individual finds it difficult to navigate through life?

Emitting positive energy attracts positive things to us, and vice versa.Read more about Personal developmentPrevious studies on human and mind composition state that our minds, bodies, and spirits are composed of energy, which vibrates out and is felt by others. Those vibrations reverberate within us and affect our energy stores.Little wonder we may feel comfortable, warm, and energetic in the presence of some people, but distant, nervous, and gloomy around others.

Change The Tone Of Your Thoughts
It is very difficult to stop thinking about negative thoughts. It is easy to slide into pessimism or fear or doubt. The human mind is naturally wired to seek safety, shun risk and stick to the comfort zone. However, you can challenge your thoughts by controlling what you think about most often. When you are tempted to think about negative things, you can place a structure of self-defense and self-discipline. You can always reframe your thoughts from fear to hope. For instance, instead of saying “Life is difficult for me and I don’t think I will come out of my troubles”, you can rather say ” Although life is full of challenges I am capable of coming up with solutions to problems and I know I will adjust to these changes.”The painful truth about negative thinking is that it breeds negative energy which attracts the wrong kinds of circumstances to you. As the Dalai Lama says, “See the positive side, the potential, and make an effort.” Actively work to change the tone of your thoughts from negative to positive. Your thoughts help you to see circumstances differently.
