“In order to carry a positive action, we must develop here a positive vision.” —Dalai Lama
Emotional Luxury
Why don’t we lure ourselves into a realm of pure positivity and manage to stay there? We need some kind of foundation to stand on confidently and comfortably, which is trust and a positive attitude. Trusting the flow of life is the best tool we can use to make better life choices. A positive attitude has a magical quality—it restores our vitality and helps us feel lighter, freer, and more beautiful. When we think positively, it means we trust the universe, and all our future events line up in a nice and positive way. When our beliefs are good and strong, they take us straight to success; they show us the right direction. I choose to believe that all my wishes will come true. It’s just a matter of time.
Whatever we think and believe comes true for us. Our beliefs affect our feelings and actions. Beliefs are thoughts that we’ve convinced ourselves are true. Our beliefs come from what people tell us at school, in our families, and in the media. They are telling you one way of thinking. What’s your way of thinking? You can learn this by examining your beliefs. Things can change for the better when we believe in our value and in the good in the world, and expect to succeed in most things. Then we’ll have more positive experiences and feel much better. First, we believe in good; then we see and feel good.
