If you worry about something, you think negatively. Instead if you contemplate about something, you think positively. Change your viewpoint about worry. Adopt the viewpoint of contemplation.Your attitude determines how you face failure. A positive thinker takes every failure as a stepping-stone. He converts his failures into successes. Such people are welcomed wherever they go. It is such positive thinkers who inspire people, who cultivate a feeling of brotherhood wherever they go and help in creating a stress free society. The difference between negative thinking and positive thinking is highlighted in the following examples:
Worry (Negative Thinking) says: What if I don’t get anything inspite of hardwork?Contemplation (Positive Thinking) says: Even if my hardwork doesn’t pay off, at least I will grow stronger physically and mentally. And there is no harm in trying.
Worry : Will I be as happy tomorrow as I am today?Contemplation : There must be ways and means to attain
Worry :
Contemplation :
Worry : Contemplation : permanent happiness, which I need to seek.
There are many cracks (worries) in the mirror of life.So what if there are cracks in the mirror of life? The mirror still reflects my face.
Things can get worse.
Things can only get better. The possibility of happiness is immense. Happiness is my second nature.

Worry : Worry : Everything nowadays is unhealthy… the environment, the water, the food, the air.
Contemplation : Actually bad conditions increase the resistance of my body. And even if I do fall sick, I will only come out stronger.
Worry : Trains can get derailed, cars may collide, planes may be hijacked.Contemplation : What is the probability of these things occurring? What does the law of average say? In everything I undertake, there is risk. One should avoid risks.
One should take calculated risks. That is the only way to progress.
What is the bad news today? Where is trouble brewing? Any riots? Any wars? Any murders?
What are the new developments today? Any new discoveries? What challenges do the events of the world pose to me?
How will my decision turn out to be? I do not Contemplation :Worry : Contemplation :
Worry :
Contemplation : have any experience. It is best that I do not take any decisions at all.
Instead of not deciding at all, it is better to make wrong decisions and learn from wrong decisions. Good decisions come from experience and experience comes from bad (wrong) decisions.
Why do bad things happen to good people? Whatever happens, I am equipped with the solution before the problem itself.I am worried about death.
My worry is dying.
Worrying about sun signs
There are many who read every day what their sun signs say in the newspapers and get worried about the same. The reality is that when you read horoscopes and then actually believe what your stars foretell, then you start attracting such events through the power of your thoughts. Here is an experiment you can try. Read what is written for all the 12 sun signs. Choose that sun sign which you like the most, i.e. which is the most positive for that day. Believe it will happen. And you will see that it actually happens. Thus you will realize that sun signs and horoscopes are nothing but a game of positive and negative thoughts.
