Have been doing lots of reading since attending Entrepreneur Action Program (EAP) last year. Positive Thinking is one of many Distinction that have changed my perspective in life. Will talk about other distinction in my later post.
What is Positive thinking? We should always think positive in whatever we do. Our work, family relationship, Parenting, Career and many other stuff. All these positive thinking will win us half the battle even before doing anything. During Alicia’s Primary One Balloting at Yew Tee Primary School a few weeks back, Positive thinking was being tested once again for my own experience. As mention in my earlier post, there are 136 applicants for 134 places left. Swee Foong and myself were concentrating on Alicia’s number, 061. Alicia’s name was not called even after 100 applications chosen. Chances seems to be getting slim. On the 107th application picked, I just shouted 61 before the number was called. To our surprise, It was 061. We are jumping for joy. Be it coincidental or pure luck. We truly belief that our thoughts had help us win a battle this time.
When the last number was called and ballot completed, one couple quickly walked towards the principal with a letter in hand. They tried to ask for an exception. Why would someone prepare an appeal letter in advance. They must have the negative thoughts even before going to the balloting. The scene of the mother crying over her husband’s shoulder keep coming back to me. Is it a reminder not to havest negative thoughts or how much extra mile a parents would do for their children.
We should never have any negative thoughts in mind. That will bring our chance of success to as low as 30% even before battle. That will only attract more negative energy. Have you ever encountered setbacks after setbacks, why me thoughts would start to haunt you.
Start to think positive from today onward, your life will change. Mine is changing for sure.
