Optimism, positive attitudes and positive thinking are fundamental to the laws of Success. My ex-husband used to tell me that I always looked at the doughnut and not the hole. Oops. I made a Freudian slip. He always said that I looked at the hole and not the doughnut. That I reversed it as I wrote tells me how much I have changed. That’s exciting. Today, let’s look at the benefits of optimism and the laws of success.
Can Optimism, positive thinking, and positive attitude be learned? From my own experience, and my own demonstration in the first paragraph; the answer is YES. It can be learned. It is true that optimism can be predisposed; a fancy way of saying it is inherited. Research scientists are reporting that it can be taught and learned by children who are at high risk (another fancy way of saying that the children are probably depressed, unhappy and pessimistic).
OPTIMISM, POSITIVE ATTITUDE AND POSITIVE THINKING RESEARCH
It helps me to have positive thinking and optimism and a positive attitude, but I really feel convinced and happy when what I believe and feel are proven by research. I always believed I could be happy and successful and prosperous, but I was lit by fire when I read The Millionaire Mind and found that millionaires who are very successful had the same fears, doubts and concerns that I have. They too have to deal with criticism and maintaining persistence in the face of failure – keep on keeping on. These facts verified that I’m not so different. If they can do it, I can do it. You can do it.
Shortly after I read about the Laws of Attraction, I was sharing it with someone I thought was very positive. She looked at me with disdain and said “Is that all it is – positive thinking?” Obviously optimism, positive thinking and positive attitude have taken a bad rap.
So I am here to tell you that optimism, positive thinking and a positive attitude can extend your life span significantly. It has been proven.
Optimism creates people who are happy, successful, and healthy. Research of 99 Harvard graduates over a 35 year period indicates that graduates who had optimism and positive thinking and positive attitudes were significantly healthier and longer lived than pessimists.
Persistence is a by product of Optimism, positive attitude and positive thinking. People who are optimistic, have a positive attitude, and think positive don’t give up as easily as pessimists. To actively use the laws of success, it is important to keep on regardless.
Children in one study and adults in another study who were given optimism training learned how to think in a positive manner. Even years after the training, they could solve problems better. They had better emotional health as a result of optimism, positive attitude and positive thinking than pessimists.
Greater Achievement was accomplished by both individual players and sport teams who had optimism, positive attitude and positive thinking; than those who were pessimistic.
Optimism, positive thinking and positive attitudes help people believe in themselves and have less stress. Millionaires believe in themselves. It is easier to cooperate with the laws of success when you believe in yourself.
OPTIMISM, POSITIVE ATTITUDE AND POSITIVE THINKING BENEFITS
Optimism, positive thinking and a positive attitude delivers the benefits of a longer life span, greater health, persistence, better achievement, less stress, and the belief in self. Why would anyone want to not have optimism, positive thinking, and a positive attitude? IT CAN ONLY HELP YOU SUCCEED AND PROSPER which will beget more optimism, positive thinking and a positive attitude which CAN ONLY HELP YOU PROSPER.
