Thinking is where it starts but it isn't a substitute for action.

Most people keep leveraging action, as if action is the most important way to get what you want or to succeed.

Doing action with negative thinking first, results to nothing.
Doing action without thinking first, results to wandering nowhere.
Doing action with positive thinking first, results to the best results you could ever think of.

Positive thinking leads to enthusiasm and inspiration. And believe me, if you are inspired, you really can't stop yourself to act. Action is a natural by-product of inspiration. Forced action is so ineffective and inefficient.

Hard work leads to success whatever you do.

Positive thinking without hard work ("lazy thinkers") leads to nothing just a "big talk".

I see so many people thinking of millions without work that I am already sick of it. Remember, there is no free lunch no matter what they say.

positive thinking is not useless, however it needs to be accompanied by positive actions and also the right actions!

As they say, positive thinking leads to positive actions, so if you can be positive but also use that with the right information, then it'll be helpful :-)

What else ....................... thinking is absolutely useful ?

Action - The key ingredient.

You will fail a lot when you are trying new things as well, but if you are not failing, you are not trying new things.

And, if you are not trying new things, you will not succeed.

ALSO, a lot of the times, what you think you want, is not what you are going to get. Just take the first step, keep rolling with it, keep your morals right, don't quit, and you'll get somewhere good.

BTW, When I say don't quit, that doesn't mean not taking a 6 month break and saying I'M DONE! Then re-grouping and trying something different.

I have tried so many different things, failed, looked like an idiot, you name it, but eventually I get back up on the horse, try again. I do know that when I fail I almost NEVER make that same mistake 2 times. That is very important.

I may have went a little off topic.

Negative thinking is just no good for anyone, you, the people around you, anybody.

We all do it sometimes tho. It's a constant struggle.

I feel your pain man, I feel it.

Well, that's very true. But your caveat is over-dramatic.

There is no substitute for action. It's up to us individually to not delude ourselves. If you're doing weekly reviews that certainly helps to avoid this delusion.

Positive think, in and of itself, is infinitely better than negative thinking.

you have hit the nail on the head my friend.Indeed listening to motivational tapes or reading motivational books is not enough, it the action which counts the most and ultimately yield positive results.

Success is a journey. It really takes so much good quality for a person to be successful.

A journey worth to travel. Because when you reach a certain level of success, your personal quality/character has reached certain level also. (Except those who directly inherit great wealth)

Those who starts from ZERO & went all the way to Billions, this journey builds the character for him.

Most people will watch the videos and listen to the cds and even do the affirmations but thats where they leave it. They do forget that the next step is the taking of the positive actions. But sometimes in some videos they do forget to mention the action part aswell.

First step is positive thinkings if you have it then you got your goals, some people may need advises to be in right diretion but i am not convinced that positive thinking is absolutely useless.

I agree that positive thinking is absolutely useless without supplementing it with action that will give you positive results. But I'll also say that positive thinking helps set the stage for good things and serves as a motivator to make those things happen. So I wouldn't really discount positive thinking. Without it, there wouldn't be much of anything.

Won't you agree though that having a positive attitude is like the oxygen to action's fire?

I believe Robert Fritz who also says positive thinking is harmful. Most people need realistic thinking. A true understanding of what reality is today. There is no reason to sugar coat where you are. I know several really super successful people who are negative thinkers and jerks. I also know lots of super positive people with great attitudes who are really a mess. Both lots would greatly benefit from a dose of reality.

Some people have got the wrong idea from my message. What I mean here is this- Positive thinking is useless IF IT TAKES YOU NO WHERE.

Which means if you sit at one place and think positive thoughts without taking any action then it's not going to lead to anything much. Action is a necessary thing...Nothing happens until something moves.

I work part time at an office retail store and if you've ever worked retail you know that a bad day will leave you hating... well, everything.

But my assistant manager has a line he likes to use.

"Make it happen."

Running behind zoning the store? "Make it happen."
Got tons of freight that needs to be put out in 2 hours? "Make it happen."
Have to sell a protection plan to make quota? "Make it happen."

Sometimes I fail, sometimes I succeed and sometimes I run late. But I can assure you that someone simply telling me to "make it happen" even on days when I just want to yell and scream and quit, I make it happen.

positive thinking is very useful ! at least for me

Positive thinking is a mental attitude that admits into the mind thoughts, words and images that are conductive to growth, expansion and success. It is a mental attitude that expects good and favorable results. A positive mind anticipates happiness, joy, health and a successful outcome of every situation and action. Whatever the mind expects, it finds.
Not everyone accepts or believes in positive thinking. Some consider the subject as just nonsense, and others scoff at people who believe and accept it.

ummm...positive thinking without action is useless. Positive thinking without action is what we would call day dreaming and fantasizing.

I will give you this much, if I could only chose one, ACTION > Positive thinking but they are not mutually exclusive.

The clue is in the phrase. Positive THINKING. Not Positive Acting.
Thinking does not inevitable lead to action. Thinking is just thinking.
Positive acting would involve in the first instance acting to put yourself in the right situation where good stuff will show up.(Meeting the right people,creating the right kinds of professional relationships, being surprised by things outside of yourself, ideas other people have)
In other words it is not just what is INSIDE you but what is OUTSIDE your skin.Objects, people, contexts, situations. Expose yourself to all that. The MUSE will show up.

I dropped "positive thinking" for mindfulness and it is working for me. This doesn't mean I don't get excited about ideas and whatnot. I just try to think smart rather than positive. I think you also got to be careful about action. I think a lot of people get excited and then take action without purpose. So they do take action, but then achieve very little.

Mindfulness - Focus - Action

As a stand alone concept sure Positive thinking won't get you very Far.
However combine an Optomistic Mindset and Carefully planned DMO (Daily Mode of Operation)
Focus only on IPA (Income producing Activities)
Checking emails and taking phone calls don't count...
Stay Consistant with your marketing efforts...and you will see results... Ark

Well positive thinking alone is not enough ,it should be accompanied by the solid postive believing and there should be no doubt in your mind about the positive outcome.

It's ultimately our inner and often unconscious belief systems that drive our actions. Many people sabotage their futures because of competing commitments between their stated values and these unconscious belief systems. For example, we can confess our desire to produce large amounts of money but inwardly feel unworthy of these advancements and unknowingly undermine our own success. These inner belief systems often override our good intentions. The answer to this dilemma is to replace our faulty beliefs with better ones, but this is often easier said than done because many of these underground beliefs are attached to old wounds and subsequent fear. Our natural defense mechanisms tend to keep us from "going there." The best way to reprogram our beliefs is by uniting truth with an emotionally charged experience. That's why we often make changes in times of crisis that we normally would not be willing to make. One way to recreate this emotionally charge environment is through repeated emotionally based confessions based upon scripted positive thoughts. It's not a fool-proof method, but is often beneficial if our repeated thoughts and confessions begin to filter into the underground reservoir of belief. If we confess the same thoughts consistently enough we can eventually form new belief systems. It should also be noted that negative thought patterns are actually faith in the very things that we do not want to happen to us...With this in mind, I think positive thinking is a better option over negative thinking any day.

Your thread title is absolutely correct if people don't take action. But positive thinking is quite powerful when you're an action taker. That positivity keeps you focused whenever the going gets tough.

All the motivation material out there should be seen as a foundation. With the right mindset and will to take action, you can truly accomplish anything.

- Sam

Positive thinking is useful when combined with action; by itself it is not much..but still beats negative thinking.

It isn't just about thinking positive or taking action as some others have mentioned. There is so much to be said for visualization, knowing what you want and visualizing it often. Our brains actually become hard-wired to sending out these visual messages and bringing those things we think about into our life. This works to amp up positive thinking in ways just "thinking" alone cannot do.

[DELETED]

Positive thinking is worthless if there is no action attached to it.

hi, thank for useful infor

Positive thinking powered by a powerful desire is what works. Desire is the fuel of life wether positive or negative. Build the desire around your goal. Have you noticed a man who desired a women? A powerful desire knows no obstacle. Hope that helps.

This is an excellent discussion, I think that everything starts with a thought, but, as you guys said before, action is the KEY to success.

Also I think that thinking positive too much can be dangerous in some way, because you don't see obvious negative things that are happening in front of you.

Cheers,

Juanle

Positive thinking is just the start of the process.

Taking action is more important.

The most important thing is marching through both the high and low points of the process you started and continuing to your goal

Positive thinking open doors for us to have a great day. Try it it works.

A positive mindset and thought pattern is essential for our own personal happiness. This has to be combined with all the senses and emotions to be turned into action. Sitting in an armchair think positive thoughts is NOT enough.

We have to involve all five senses and our emotions and then take the action that recreates these thoughts, feelings and emotions.

Loving the self plug, and regardless of whether or not us humans like it, we still think...and it's only the ones who act more than they think who get results,


BUT it's only the ones who act more than they think, and when they think they think on how to act better...who see the REAL results.

Thinking is only on the surface, thinking alone will never get you to take consistent action. Usually we act first and think later.... Ask yourself this simple question: "Can I honestly say that I know what my next thought will be" or "Do I know what my next action will be ?"

I agree with Ready niche investor that you must cultivate a driving desire along with an over all Vision and Mission statement on what your Objectives are Ultimately!

ryman, I completely agree.

Positive thinking should be used to IDENTIFY the positive outcomes in our lives. What can we get out of this to make us better?

But, it's all completely useless if you don't take action on what you've discovered.

With that said....positive thinking without action isn't completely useless. It's a healthy thing instead of thinking down in the dumps....for instance...

I lost my wallet 2 weeks and I had $400 in there that I was going deposit in my bank account....so I thought...k, this can't happen again because I really f ed up here because I had my credit card bill due in a week..

So I thought....well ok,

1. I loose my stuff all the time which means I IT'S TIME TO GET MORE ORGANIZED.

2. Well I had the money so why didn't I just deposit it right away? Honestly, nothing was holding me back...I was just lazy about it...i thought..."oh I'll get around to it this week." Then I had an aha moment...like oh this is the way it should be with all of life....we get an opportunity we only have so long before things get in the way and knock us off track.

From this I developed my "Exploit Windows of Opportunities method"....every time I realize something I go...oh, whoops I'm doing that again. Then I just fix it real quick and move on with my life...I don't get upset and think why can't I do this! I just fixed it when I remembered then let it go.

Lastly, I learned that it's important to protect your assets. Keep safe what's important to you and have boundaries....I thought...uhhmmm....well if I wasn't running to the bank, why'd I have all this cash in my wallet?

I found my wallet 2 days later but I learned the same thing...by that time I completely changed up my room, organized all of my things, and set up a simple schedule that created leverage in my life...and then I put my credit card and one of my debit cards in a safe place because I didn't use them frequently, then i went and deposited my money.


If I would have thought negatively, this never would have happened....action would have never occured if I just went...

"Of course. I have to loose my stuff again..."

But thinking can't get you anywhere without action because your standing still.

Aaryn

And I agree too! Desire is really important if you want to achieve.

Why would you do something you don't care about?

Especially if your already doing something you don't care about.

A journey of a thousand miles starts with the first step. Positive thinking is the first step and remember only one step at a time and it cannot be skip. After having positive thinking, we must take action until it become our habit and the habit will develop our character.

This is a really quick one as I can not entirely agree with VeitSchenk. Reason is if I have not read it wrong is that it is stated that you need to have an element of success to start to think positive. If you don't and think positive then you will end up even unhappier and less fulfilled and less successful than if they just trundled along with a head full of negative thoughts.

I disagree because if I had not started to think positive to turn my life around I would now in all seriousness be DEAD! So it must work unless I am writing from the other side through Jonathan Edwards ;o)

Yes I agree that positive thinking is not the sole answer but in many cases it is the starting point.

Hope you liked the truth from a ghost writer. Get it?

Positive thinking is where it starts.Everybody has a purpose in life.Positive thinking gets the idea going of what your purpose is.Too many people I seen start something and then quit very quickly because they don't see fast results.Although fast success is possible but not common.Any business takes time.For example if you open a store and no one knows what kind of store it is,don't expect a flood of people to rush in.But if you establish that this a (whatever) kind of store with the right presentation,over time you business will begin to grow.But with negative thinking people will move further away from you.Ever say to yourself I have a bad vibe about this person,then you move away from them.That is also the way a business works.Hope this helps you out with the way your feeling.

Yes it can be useless if you are lacking of doing what you are thinking.

oh! oh!

I have a new response

Action is just as useless.

I kindda agree with you. ppl dont put their positivity practically. But negativity is not good in any way. So its not absolutely useless.

You have hit the nail on the head! Positive thinking is only useful if positive actions are taken after the positive thoughts

I think positive thinking is underrated in the sense that it is such a powerful tool but most just think that positive thinking is wishful thinking. Positivity helps alot in IM, even more so when we cannot physically see how our business is taking shape. But yeah, echoing what many have said, I second that a positive action and positive mindset is really all you need to succeed.

Don't your thoughts govern your actions? This would indicate positive thinking is essential to success

.....says the negative thinker. Positive thinking is based upon 1 thing, STAYING positive will lead you to diminishing your fears, worries, and emotional anxieties. Allowing your self, mind, and body to have a physiological reaction to that thinking and making your decisions/choices/actions, EASIER and MORE LIKELY to occur. All of that = < % of Success, and thats what we are all after.

I definitely agree with this post. Positive thinking is osmething you have to master on a conscious level. Once you do that it will become unconscious and you wont have to work hard at it anymore. When this happens you will look at things differently and take more action because you wont see just the negative anymore.

From this point you should be golden so long as you stay focused. This has worked for me.

You're right of course. Positive thinking is just step one. If you get into a car and expect it to start by just thinking about it you are going to go no where fast.

Step 2, starting the car, is also required. Of course the 'action' part in life is harder than that, but thats the way it is.

I agree with your premise ryanman. Action is definitely a must to make anything happen with good feelings, but you also shouldn't take action unless you are thinking and feeling positively. Otherwise, what your action creates will probably be detrimental if it is born from hostile or painful emotions, or even neutral emotions. I say neutral emotions too because those are simply lazy feelings that don't take into consideration one's surroundings and can then cause harm due to negligence.

I think FOCUS is more important than positive thinking. You can have a positive mindset whenever you want but if you can't focus on the task there will be no great result.

Good point, changing your mindset is just part of it, the rest is action.

Positive thinking, when performing difficult tasks; or working under pressure is vital.

Positive thinking, and action, are not mutually exclusive; You can do one without the other - but in business you'll have a heart attack if you cant do both.

I disagree. Positive thinking without action is useless, but positive thinking WITH action can bring success beyond your wildest dreams.

Positive thinking is not useless. Success is all about attitude.

The fact that someone watches a motivational video does not translate to positive thinking. A truly positive mindset leads to motivation and motivation leads to action. How do you start in business if you do not believe in it?

I still encourage people to visit business coaches, read positive books and watch motivational videos. Ask any successful person what the secret of success is. The answer is always "the mindset".

Positive thinking without action is useless, and action without positive thinking is a waste of time and efforts.

Iam sure when people start thinking positive, they automatically do action.

Negative ppl will think their life is useless and so on, so they dont do action. Either way, being positive make your feeling comforts and peaceful.

As I wrote in "the success code":

"You cannot aim a duck to death".

[DELETED]

I agree with JagSEO that focus is required.
"I think FOCUS is more important than positive thinking. You can have a positive mindset whenever you want but if you can't focus on the task there will be no great result."

Just as when

The only "positive thinking" formula that works for me is a "can-do" attitude. Coming up with a bunch of negative reasons why you CAN'T do something will definitely stop you in your tracks.

But looking at yourself in the mirror and reciting positive mantras... no.

It depends. For the person who wants to suicide, positive thinking is a very useful thing.

On the other hand to the person who wants to earn a million dollars, a positive thinking is just another necessary feature.

And I agree that many people do not act. So, people, I have nothing more to tell you except to act!

Well the saying goes as to the knowledge is in the eye of beholder, the same goes as for success. the first step for success is to look for it in our mind, once we have it. we can achieve it. but being lazy won't help so you have to achieve the outside tasks also..

I think a whole lot of us live in the 'action' mode & keep trying hard to get what we want, in spite of obvious signs that we need to change direction or take a break.

While taking action is necessary, timing is equally important. You can't break an egg to see if you are going to get a chicken ...

Positive thinking and action may still get you nowhere. There are a lot of hard working, bubbly people that are dirt poor.

You have to have focused ambition and be driven to not let anything get in your way to achieve what you want. Never give up and choose your friends wisely. The lowest common denominator can often bring the group down.

You should try to associate and befriend a person who is already living your dream. Often, their enthusiasm as well as their knowledge will be contagious.

I wonder the people that you're talking about are really positive or thinking truly positively. They may say but may really do something else. Change certainly starts from thinking but your thinking doesn't need to always be positive it just has to be balanced. When you balance things, that's when you take action. I guest it depends on the person to.

I certainly know some people who would fall into the type of people you're describing here.

Positive thinking is never useless by itself. But it is true that we need to act on our positive ideas. So we need ambition to succeed and the desire to work to achieve our positive ideas.

Focus + direction + aggression + hard work = results & attainment

People seriously over do the "power" of positive thinking. You should already be in a more or less positive frame of mind, and that's pretty simple...focus on your goal...obsess about your goal...your goal becomes your life.

In most cases, positive thinking needs to be followed by positive actions. Not just that, but also persistent and consistant action to improve your life.

[DELETED]

Even if you do nothing at all, positive thinking will keep you happy and healthy. Negative thinking always leads to depression and stress, regardless if you succeed or fail in anything.

[DELETED]

Positive thinking is better than negative thinking, so if that's all a person does, that's fine. However, as you have stated, you need to take 'massive' action (to quote a well known guru) to acheive your goals/dreams.

With regards to listening to tapes/cds etc., the more you listen the more the message will get ingrained in your subconscious mind.

So yes, taking action is the best way forward, but listening to motivational speakers/coaches, beats getting brain dead watching some dumb ass reality show on TV.

thinking positive obviously in internet marketing should be followed by ACTION. or you;; get nothing

I 100% agree if the focus of the positive think is focused on issues that is not working, e.g. I can focus of not having any wheat in my garden all I want. It will still come! However when positive thinking makes me look beyond the wheat at how beautiful my garden can be with a bit of effort, then positive thinking works and is very powerful.

You must feel what you try to install in yourself. You can try to make yourself the best sales person in the world, but if you actually have no interest in being that person NO positive thinking will ever help you.

Positive thinking aligned with desire is absolutely great and powerful. And then get to work

I first read Vincent Peale in my teens. Now almost 2 decades later, I can trace my difference in approach to life to his books.

Positive thinking isn't the problem, people are.

I don't understand how anyone can read the stories and believe it says think happy thots and do nothing. All the testimonials are quite clear: . I think that really is the message.

I wouldn't knock it until I've been able to produce anywhere near 1/4 of the results and testimonials its has and continues to do.

Positive thinking - 50% good for you
Positive Doing - 100%

Positive Thinking + Action = Results

Great Discussion!

From my understanding of "mind science" and "chi gung" and how it applies to our use of both brain hemispheres, negative thinking tends to be left brain generated.

When someone utilizing more of the left brain they are prone to be planners instead of action takers and this is why taking action may require a little more effort.

I like using Silva Life System for this reason. It helps balance both brain hemispheres and also activate the creative and intuitive right side.

Wil

Positive thinking is an absolute must. However, if there is no action taken, you'll start to feel like a loser and when you feel like a loser you think negatively. So take action right now!

Positive unshakable belief will get you everything.Positive wishing get you nowhere.

Positiive thinking without action is quite useless.
I still prefer rational thinking with optimistic attitude.

I agree. Few realize that positive thinking can be a tremendous handicap. For example, if you are fat, lonely, and broke yet walk around with a smile on your face and focus on what you have instead of what you do not have, you will most likely never be successful. Why? Because you have to be dissatisfied with your life in order to make any positive changes. It is great to be grateful for what you have, but not at the expense of self- improvement and goal achievement.

Positive thinking is an excuse for many people to be losers. Life is about balance. You need positive and negative energy to get things done.

If you are positive all the time then you are an idiot.

If you are negative all of the time then you are an idiot as well.

The key is to know when to use positive or negative energy. Anger can be a very powerful force to push you into positive action. Laughter can be a very negative force to prevent you from taking action.

Just as violence is sometimes necessary to prevent more violence, negative energy is necessary to create more negativity.

Find the balance.

Simple but deadly accurate statement..

Positive thinking is where our actions will be based upon. Thoughts and ideas cannot make our dreams come true if without actions. I agree with the statement mentioned above that nothing can be a substitute to actions. Dreams and objectives cannot be attained by ideas or people just sitting in their couch waiting for that idea to materialize.
One can deem that positive thinking is useless if people are not doing something to put that thought or idea to action. They will simply justify that their lives didn't improve even if they had this positive thoughts. Simple explanation to that is, he/she doesn't have the determination and perseverance in applying their thought to action. It's not an overnight effect that having positive thoughts will automatically gives you a positive and progressive life. It takes time for a caterpillar to develop its wings, a child to be an engineer or a doctor. or a car parts to be assembled into its complete form.
Do not try to think that positive thoughts are useless, because if that would be the case, how could we possibly explain the thoughts or minds of people who has negative thinking?
Well, Who knows what's it gonna be like..

Positive thinking without actions is useless.You can only compare it with a good car without gas or wheels.It does not matter how good it looks but i tell you the truth that it is not going to take you anywhere even if you were to cry.You can think on all the wonderful thoughts of the life you want to have or achieve but i promise you that without efforts and the will power for execution you are going nowhere.

Positive thinking will not fail to produce results that are positive. If it does not produce results, then its not positive thinking. Likes could only beget likes. "Minus"(-) will not give you plus(+), neither will the reverse be the case. A lion will give birth to a lion and not a snake. Not even accidentally. In summary, the starting point to every great success is positive thinking.

You can't say its "absolutely" useless to think positive. Did thinking negatively convince you to stay in the internet marketing game even though you thought you can't do it?

Its all about action action action!!!!

Positive thinking - negative thinking - creative thinking. Your choice.

The Push Button solution is generally preferred over the nitty gritty nuts and bolt solution of doing as the successful do, not as they teach.

It's a lot easier to run round in circles thinking "I'll get started tomorrow" than it is to plan definite steps today. Success is found in blazing a new path: but who wants the trouble?

I believe so. Maybe because most of these 97% are scared to fail. A lot of us feel frightened especially if we're not sure where we're heading. Personally, I often belong to that 97% and rarely on the 3%.

[DELETED]

you are absolutely right the only thing it does is makes you feel better, but it doesn't change the facts, I read self development book when i was depressed ones the only thing it does is it helps you move on and feel good maybe, that it self is the problem, when people are upset about something they are willing to do anything to change,but when you make them feel better they forget the Dark feelings and they become like "It will be Ok!","I'm smart and I will figured it out","Things will change"..ect.

I never heard of someone read a positive thinking book and his life changed, the only one who say his life changed are the writers or speaker of this kind of things.

Positive thinking is neither good or bad in isolation. What makes it work, or not work, is how it is used on an individual basis.

Those that say it works have found a beneficial way to use it, unless they're just parroting others.

Those that say it doesn't work haven't found a beneficial way to use it, but that's only their experience, it doesn't apply to anyone else.

Your experience with it, good or bad, doesn't create someone else's reality.

Totally disagree with you about this. When facing a problem / doing problem solving, it's better to go in with a clear and positive mind that you can fix the problem, rather than running away or facing it with a bad attitude.

Positive thinking is useless if you don't accompany it with an action. Don't just think....put an action with it.

I dont belive in positive thinking , we should have normal thinking , so that we dont feel when negative things happen

I do believe that positive thinking plays a big role to help us keep doing. When we were able to maintain a positive mind, we can surpass every situation, good or bad. But it is not enough, we need to work hard and take action as well in addition to thinking positive to ensure success.

Motivation doesn't always result in action, but action won't happen without motivation.

Taking action is everything. I have to remind myself of this all the time.

[DELETED]

positive thinking is not useless, however it needs to be accompanied by positive actions and also the right actions!

Many times I find myself languishing in the 97% . A few times when I take action I transform into the 3 %.

You're right positive thoughts are not enough.. You need to take action!

I totally agree with you on that. Also, people should know that genius is 1% inspiration and 99% perspiration. Postive thinking is important but without action the effort is not worthwhile.

I agree, but still at a minimum it's better than negative thinking which always takes you somewhere -- down. Sometimes positive thinking may feel like just staying afloat. And that, in itself, is good.

And yes, it should be a basis upon which to take action.

Harsh, but true.

positive thinking is useless until we do some positive actions.

"Affirmation without discipline is the beginning of delusion." Jim Rohn
If positive thinking is a starting point towards measurable results, then koodos to those who are taking those steps.

Yeah start to love money and she/he will come.

Lol...Definitely there with ya ryanman. It is not until a year later that I actually started doing something myself that positive thinking actually really did anything! Positive thinking is a powerful fuel...But an action has to be taken especially when your inspiration is in a present peak state.

This is true, Positive thinking is not enough for us to succeed it must come along with action to be able to achieve our goal. Because success will not fall down on our lap from up above by thinking positive. So lets keep the ball rolling and keep working to achieve or dreams, goals, etc..

Action and motivation is the best way to success.

Positive thinking is useless if you will not put it in action. No matter how positive or great idea you have if you will not put them into action will not bring you anywhere. God gave us the power to think because He knows that we can do something about it that we will come up with something good for ourselves and for the others.

i would treat thinking as the subconsicious mind patterns & belifefs...but as someone wrote above.. positive thinking is not a substitute of action.. it´s a great journey partner to the success..people just take a look at the secrets of millionaire mind by Harv Eker.. just go to amazon.com and type this title in the book section search bar.. i have this book and reallt was a life-changer!! cheers

The thinkers VS the Do-ers

I agree, take action is important to get make a dream come true

It does make your days better. Try it for a week.

I disagree with some of your opinions on positive thinking!

I am a very positive guy any ways but today I made a conscious effort to be even more positive , especially to other people! I made sure that I said "Have a great day" to people that I spoke too!

Here is the response I got:
While I was being served at a clothes shop today, I was talking to the girl on the till and as she finished serving me and said goodbye, I complimented her on her smile and said to her "Have a great day". As I proceeded to walk away she said that she would like to employ me as a member of staff since I have a sense of great positivity about me! I can honestly say that is the first time I have ever been offered a job without applying!

Although her offering me a job didn't really benefit me, the point I am making is that when we are positive, we affect the people around us and create new opportunities for ourselves. For example if I was in need of a job, just by smiling, a quick compliment and wishing some one a great day gave me the opportunity to get a job!

The power of positivity is incredible, the results are incredible, the difficulty is being able to stay positive throughout life! You can't expect to see results in a matter of minutes after being positive! It takes some time to see the benefits! I can happily say though, the benefits of having a positive mindset are well worth the struggle to remain positive at the start!

Good luck & have a great day!
