I remembered this timely tip from Dr. Tony Alessandra yesterday and sharedit in our group. One of the things that helps us gather and maintain momentum of positive vibrations is to be among the positive. Can we do this all the time and everywhere?  Perhaps.

The fact is our day is often influenced by the environment we find ourselves in.. As determined as we might be to maintin a positive outlook and generate it all the TIME as we achieve great things there will be people and situations that come into our SPACE that might dampen that effort.. While the positive energy you generate will attract like energy it helps to take the TIME to fill your SPACE with more of what you wish to attract, positive thoughts and energy.

Shared with respect for all, I hope you find it useful!

You are what you think!

Occasionally we hear stories of people who struggle against great odds, prove the naysayers wrong, and achieve the nearly impossible. They turn around a defunct company; they stop a highway from going through virgin land; they beat the odds on terminal cancer.

In order to do extraordinary things, these people - and you! - don't need to be superhuman, you just need some positive tools to get you through rough times. You need a positive philosophy to give yourself direction and an understanding of what you can do yourself and when you need help from others. Dr. Norman Vincent Peale's book, The Power of Positive Thinking, was published over 50 years ago and it continues to sell well because it contains such a universal truth: the attitudes we hold help shape the reality we experience.

Having a positive attitude isn't something you just tack on to your old personality. It comes from deep within you; it has to or it would get wiped out with the first sign of a countervailing negative force. But you also have to have some other source of positive energy outside yourself that keeps you going. Most probably it is other people you can rely on for support, who are also positive about your ability to succeed. Perhaps you are also motivated by the example of some historical or spiritual figure. (Martin Luther King was inspired by Gandhi...who in turn was inspired by Thoreau).

The point is, you don't do it alone - a positive state of mind comes from within and without. It requires that you embed yourself in a context of positiveness - to tap sources beyond yourself. If this trait isn't already in your repertoire, then begin here. The trait of positiveness is so attractive, other people will be drawn to you.
