THE LIMITS OF POSITIVE THINKING

The magical potency of positive thinking has been a common theme among motivational speaker for a long time. In 1952  Norman Vincent Peal published seminal book, The Power Of Positive Thinking, He advocate that you should always be optimistic, You should b

uild Mental picture of yourself succeeding & the same time you should drive a negative thoughts, doubts & self criticism, his book become a best seller.

Evangelists for positive thinking such as Anthony Robbins built on this messages. The ideas were taken to an extreme by Rhonda Byrne who claimed in her best selling book, The Secret, that thinking positive thoughts supernatural ingredient which would guarantee success in almost any situation. It was only thing you needed, Positive thoughts would always attract success & negative thought would attract failure.

Unfortunately for the advocates of the Positivity, most of the available research shows that the power of positive thinking is greatly overrated. The more positively people fantasize and daydream about their future success, the less well they do in terms of having actual success. An optimistic outlook is a good starting point if it is allied to a clear understanding of the difficulties that have to be faced and the work that needs to be done.

WOOPS-  It  stands for Wish, Outcome, Obstacle, Plan.

You should start by articulating your dearest wish. Then you visualize the outcome. Next you identify the main obstacle that might prevent you from achieving your goal. Then you put in place a plan to overcome the obstacle. And finally you work your plan.

So it seems that we need a Marriage Of Positive Thinking And 

Realism, Of Optimism And Cold Calculation. We Need To Be Positive Realists Who Build Plans And Adapt Them As We Work Our Way Forward.
