Positive Attitude: Just Another Way Of Thinking?
Positive Attitude: Just Another Way Of Thinking
?
Most attitudes begin with a feeling or emotion toward something. A deliberate act, conscious and un/sub-consciously we live based on these. Some sources define it as A frame of mind in favor of or opposed to a person, policy, belief, institution, determining where you stand, how you orient yourself to life, environment, self, others. So where are you on this scale? Are you positive, negative, somewhere in-between?
So a positive attitude then might be more than a mere complex mental state involving beliefs and feelings, values and dispositions to think, speak and act in certain ways.
Biomedical research shows clear links here between our thoughts, cognitive minds, bodies we are a holistic, self-managing being and interactive system. There are many correlations, studies and findings that suggest, the more positive, happier we are, the less likely we are to get really ill, sick or diseased. The mind-body connection is real and if we take more of an optimistic outlook we can improve more than just mental health, also our physical well-being.
There are definite evidence that suggest that we can surely attribute positive thinking and attitudes to an improved physical state or put differently if there are high levels of psychological well-being present it can and will benefit physical health.
Higher levels of well-being type patients, have lower cardiovascular risk, lower levels of stress hormones and lower levels of inflammation, all evidence that the immune system is operational, functioning optimally. So why and how come we are not positive all the time, most of the time, at all? Maybe because we do not quite yet understand how to harness it at all, let alone fully to optimize our potential and capacity as human beings.
What and how we think, every day, can really shape and impact all of our life, both personally and professionally, in all areas of our daily living.
What we say to ourselves and others, will eventually over time reveal a patterned behavior in us, that will affect the processes, interactions, exchanges and dynamics of our everyday. Even and specifically when it comes to how we cope and handle life, stress, conflict, daily living, setbacks, and more. WE have a lot of negative impact, thoughts and messages in our minds that affect how and what we do, behave, say and act upon. Hormonal fluctuations, emotions, our physical health can all attest to these facts and linkages. Sleeping enough, replenishing the body when it needs it most, maintain, replace energy resources, boosting our immune system effectiveness, mental and emotional clarity and overall quality of life is possible with powerful, positive affirmations of all kinds. Slow down sometimes, prepare well, relieve stress, de-clutter and simplify, wind down, surround yourself with the beauties and pleasures of life and developing a positive attitude is now within easy reach. It is a multi-billion dollar self-help industry that keeps on growing as we want to embrace the fact more and more that we are in control somewhat of what happens and occurs in and through our own lives.
Listen and be aware of what your thoughts are, positive or negative and replace negative with positive thoughts for a week and see what happens. Write them down if you find it hard to do and then read them later on.
