Do you ever wonder why people succeed in life? Successful people fully rely on their own thoughts to dictate their future. Regardless if it is due to sports, entertainment, politics, or whatever, successful people of the world know that their success is contributed to their thought process.
This all starts with you PMA. Yes, PMA stands for your 'positive mental attitude'. We all can agree, no one likes a negative Nancy... no one! They are the type of people who are able to see the negative in just about everything. We all know one. Yet I doubt that we all want to hangout with one.
The fact of the matter is that we determine our future depending on our thoughts. I, myself, will become a millionaire. I am determined in life to go farther than the average person. I refuse to believe that any person who is deemed average by society is satisfied. Yet I do believe that they are allowing complacency into their lives. When I say complacent, I mean to say that in that individual's life, he or she has acceptable average. I'm sorry but it is true.
That is why having positive, self-appreciating thoughts is such a crucial part in determine your future. You might wonder why people who complain never get anywhere. WELL HERE IS YOUR WHY! They are sad that they are too lazy to do anything to change their live because they are too COMPLACENT!
Some of you will agree with me, but some might not understand this concept. That's okay. I'm talking trying to discuss what is say to you. I'm not talking about your friends ragging on you for something stupid that you did. I am talking about if you were to take what you friends said personally and transcribe it to your inner thoughts.
What you say to yourself is so crucial to your everyday life. I mean if if wasn't, then we would have read, "The Little Engine Who Gave Up." Instead, most of us read "The Little Engine That Could!" And you know, a lot of us found that story to be compelling.
As a psychology major, I solely believe that your cognitive thoughts will make or break you. So what if you didn't make your goal today, but are you going to achieve your goal tomorrow?
If you say no, then you simply have quit on yourself. If you said yes, then continue to do something about your situation. Always learn and apply your lesson in order to better yourself. That way you will one day achieve you goal.
So your thoughts are crucial in determining your future, but are you currently thinking negative thoughts, or positive ones? My advice to you is that you know what your strengths are and what you need to work on. That way you always know what areas you need to improve on.
Whether you like it or not, you will always know why you failed. Don't let your negative, self-depreciation thoughts keep you from succeeding. After all, you deserve the best!
