Many
times we face a shortage of primary and
basic amenities like water supply, milk supply and even electricity. But one thing is never in short supply, and
that is “problem.” All of us experience
a galore of problems in our lives. In today’s life, the intensity of these
problems is quite unruly as compared to some forty / fifty years back. Life
then was smooth because people were happy whatever they had in their
possession. Today, we want many materialistic comforts, namely a swanky house,
costly car, many electronic and electrical gadgets and the allurement of all
these make us to face a new style of living and challenge. To maintain a status quo symbol
in the society, we work like a workaholic destroying the peace of mind. And in
the end, we invite social, physical as well mental constraints. Ultimately,
these constraints shackle us and we feel gloomy. An old spiritual says “Nobody
knows the trouble, I have seen.” It is commonly heard, “One should not suffer,
the way I have suffered with my problem.” All these things are now a part of our
life. How to solve? Whenever a problem
occurs, you have to keep your patience in tact, not to lose temperament; you
have to remain cool so that flow of positive thoughts is not blocked and pass
from your conscious mind to the subconscious mind to get a correct solution.
In
the first instance, when you want to palliate any problem, frame your mind with
a positive approach. Any other approaches rather than firm and positive one,
will not only yield a negative solution, but will increase the intensity of the
problem. Later on, the fixing of the problem will be an upheaval task. Once I
happen to visit a multi-national company overseas. I saw a board displaying a sentence “Attitude
is more important than facts.” Skeptics
may wonder that you just cannot get around a fact because a fact is a
fact. But the people who see everything
in a positive frame of mind may say, “Yes, it is a fact and that must be
recognized.” The negativist is likely to
question the veracity of the fact while the positivist will try to find out a
solution out of this fact. When you face a problem, how you anticipate it with
respect to its solution is of paramount importance. You may defeat the problem or may be defeated
by the problem. Ultimately, it all depends on your approach and attitude. How
you are guided by the power of your subconscious mind to offset the problem
that matters. Your positive frame of
mind will produce enough courage, belief, assertiveness to analyze the problem
in detail and the solution is bound to come.
Like
attracts like and this is known as the law of attraction. It is perceived that thoughts are of a
natural kind of affinity. The negative thinkers always spread negative thoughts
and stimulate the surroundings negatively. In this way, he brings negative
results only. The way you think, you
will get the same reaction. On the
contrary, the positive thinker sends out positive thoughts, belief oriented
thoughts in his brain to get the positive outcome. For example, let us take the
example of two marketing personnel. One
person has got the responsibility of a territory which produces very less business
for the company. This territory has the
reputation that “no one can sell much.”
This man has gone to the territory knowing this fact well. This negative fact was planted in his
mind. He went there and approached
customers with a mind influenced by negative thoughts. He could not do anything to improve upon the
sales and ultimately left the company.
Another marketing man brought in from a different territory. He was not
knowing anything of the new assignment and this territory. He gladly accepted the work with an open mind
without visualizing any constraints. He
went to the territory and started his activity of selling. He got lots of pains and constraints and crossing the barrier
of the same, he pushed the sales of the products. Ultimately, he was very much instrumental
to make this territory as a gold mine.
This marketing personnel’s attitude was profound that he was not
accepting the fact that this territory was once known as a bad one. He was die-hard in his attitude to ensure
that he would bring positive results and he got success. This positive thinking
is the trump card of anybody’s success.
Our brain
is the greatest asset. This is always to
be kept under disciplinary control to guide you in the right direction so as to
achieve the desired result envisaged by you.
Thomas Edison says, “The chief purpose of the body is to carry the brain
around.” To achieve success, when you
face any problem, take a positive mental attitude throwing all negative
thoughts. Rely on the law of attraction
so that you can attract positive results based on positive thoughts and this is
the only formula to counter any problem
and remain afloat in the sea of constraints.
