Positive mental attitude is a concept that has been developed in many areas of life as a key to success. In 1937, Napoleon Hill introduced the importance of positive thinking in the book Think and Grow Rich. Later on, other scholars such as W. Clement Stone found positive mental attitude as a very critical component to personal success and productivity. The right mental attitude is associated with positive characteristics such as hope, courage, faith, optimism, generosity, initiative, tolerance, kindliness, tact and good common sense. Positive attitude is more of a philosophy that builds on the fact that having an optimistic disposition in any circumstance of life can help you in enhancing achievement and positive changes. It is a state of mind that tirelessly seeks for ways of victory regardless of the surrounding circumstances. Positivity by its mere definition opposes negativity, hopelessness and defeatism.

To develop mental strength, you need deliberate measures and commitment. A resilient mind is one that never loses focus even when subjected to the most stressful conditions. Mental toughness will help you maneuver through stress and emerge stronger than before. A mental attitude is the bridge that connects success and failure. On one end of the bridge is failure which is characterized by negativity while on the other end it is success which is denoted by a positive attitude. At any one given time, individuals are between the two points emotionally. They are at liberty to swing towards any end but they must also be ready to bear the consequences. It is true that you can overcome negativity but you must be determined. Having a clear understanding of the end result can motivate you to changing you from negativity into positivity. It is possible to turn situations of failure into success. With a positive attitude, your setback can be a setup for a comeback.Difficult times come to each one of us without a introduction. These situations can sink us deeper leaving us more depressed and devastated internally. Being positive in life will help you to handle these circumstances and find a way around them. This is because a positive attitude gives you a unique dimension that takes into account the storm that you are currently passing through and the lull that is imminent immediately after the storm is over. With these two perspectives, you can develop a coping strategy that has both endurance and hope knowing that good times are still ahead.

These thoughts have helped me expand my awareness and, in doing so, have helped me change the focus and direction of my life. Many individuals in today’s society have convinced themselves that they cannot find happiness or they do not have the ability to live in abundance.

This book was created to help guide individuals out of these states of fear and into a state of love and happiness. When one connects with the present moment, they connect with this abundance and joy. The tips and affirmations throughout this book are based off spiritual principles meant to help you live in the present moment.

Using the Rational Emotive Behaviour Therapy (REBT) to create a strategy for every-day meditation, the author of this book contends that these thought strategies are integral to a happy, healthy and well-balanced life. (more…)

Author: Stephen R. Covey

When Stephen Covey first released The Seven Habits of Highly Effective People, the book became an instant rage because people suddenly got up and took notice that their lives were headed off in the wrong direction; and more than that, they realized that there were so many simple things they could do in order to navigate their life correctly. This book was wonderful education for people, education in how to live life effectively and get closer to the ideal of being a ‘success’ in life.

But not everyone understands Stephen Covey’s model fully well, or maybe there are some people who haven’t read it yet. This is definitely true because we still see so much failure all around us. Now, I am not saying that by using Covey’s model, or anyone else’s model for that matter, you can become a sure-shot success, but at least we should have seen many more successes around us already judging by the number of copies the book has sold! So, where is the shortcoming?

There are two main problems here, and we are talking only about the people who have read the book already. The first problem is that most people are too lazy to implement the ideals of Stephen Covey in their lives. They consider his masterpiece of a book as a mere coffee-table book or a book that you use for light reading when you are traveling and then forget all about it. They do not realize that this book contains life-changing information. Or, they take the information and do not make the effort to actually utilize it so that it becomes knowledge for them.

The second problem is that a lot of people have a myopic view of Covey’s ideals. These are people who are impressed by the book already. If you ask them what the seven habits are, they can rattle them off end to end, but then they miss the larger picture. They do not understand that Covey was trying to tell more than he wrote in words. There are hidden implications in this book, yes, and a lot of people have just failed to see through them.

That is what we are trying to do. We are trying to show you how Covey’s book, or rather, his model, was a complete model in itself. There was nothing amiss about it. If you implement it, there should be no aspect of your life that should go untouched. The only thing is that you have to understand these ideals and try to implement them in your life.

But, before we barge into that area, it is extremely important to understand what these ideals are. What was the model that was propounded by Stephen Covey in his mega-famous book? We shall begin by trying to understand his model first, and then interpret it in such a way that it pertains to every aspect of our life.
