Nothing comes under as much scrutiny in the world of self-improvement at the concept of positive thinking. The cynical say that just believing in something doesn’t necessarily make it true while the more optimistic admit that they don’t always turn the positive thinking into positive action.
Put simply, the reason positive thinking doesn’t work, is because people’s positive thoughts don’t always go all the way down. That is, underneath their shiny veneer of positive affirmations, their real beliefs are a swirling cesspool of negativity. Even one persistent negative thought is enough to disrupt the congruency with which your positive thoughts affect your behaviour.
Positive Thinking never achieved anything on it’s own anyway. Positive Action is what you need, and you can’t have that without Positive Thinking. But it’s at the point of Positive Action that Positive Thinking starts to fail.
The opportunity to take the right action will expose your negative beliefs. Taking action forces you to confront all those negative beliefs and battle against them in order to get things done. Positive thinking is effective when it outweighs the negative thinking or when the negative thinking has been gotten rid of.
If you are able to focus completely on your goal and positive thoughts then it is of course possible to succeed despite those negative beliefs. This is how a lot of people operate. But it’s a real struggle, feels stressful and can be very draining. Also, those negative beliefs don’t change and you’ll have to deal with them every time you move towards new goals.
As always, Tapping makes it a hell of a lot easier. If, when you take action, you look for the negative feelings that come up, and tap them away, the negative thoughts vanish. You realise that the thoughts didn’t come from the reality of the situation, they were just your mind’s way of rationalising the feeling.
When you lose all those negative beliefs and thoughts that stop you from having the full benefits of Positive Thinklng you’ll be able to have a much stronger and deeper positive world view. Taking the right action will become more naturally and success will come much more easily.
