The Positive Life

Thinking Positive

by Raj on July 27, 2008


We get to see there are so many books about positivity, motivation, success, not just books, there are so many articles on internet regarding the same….. Thats not enough – You will find so many people around you saying – BE POSITIVE even when they know you are in a bad situation…. Blah, What the hell ?
Why does it happen ???The point is that why do we need to be positive…….
mmmmm, I pondered over it and have found an analogy to explain why we need to do so.. :)

think positive Thinking Positive

A beautiful, soft leather couch, having a very deep seat with cozy cushions for those afternoon naps or sleepovers. Ah, just looking at it would make you feel good….. Yeah, thats a great place to lie down and relaaaaxxx….

What if it is allowed to be kept like that for some time, say a few days……. What would happen ?It would still be soft and comfy, but it would accumulate dust over itself….Would you like to sit on it now, without first removing the dust ????

Of Course not…

Soft warm and cozy sofa/couchYou would want to clean it every now and then so that it always look beautiful….. so that you always wanna make use of it, by feeling comfy sitting on it. So that when you see it, you say – WOW !!!! What a beautiful couch……Even our mind is like that – like a beautiful couch !!!!!

If we just allow it to remain like that, if we do not give it positive thoughts, dust of negativity will accumulate over it, and the once beautiful mind will now start looking dull….But you want your mind to remain beautiful always ….
Its simple, just spray a few fresh drops of positivity and it will get cleaned…..

That is why, we need to clean our mind so that it always remain beautiful….just like the fresh and crystal clear drops of dew on grass during mornings.

What an example !!! I have heard people comparing mind with a garden and negative thoughts in them as weeds, This was the First time I have seen such a nice example from our common life.

Well, how about considering a car instead of couch ??? I think I can relate better to it.
