Power of Positive Thinking

OK, so I have been really thinking about this whole Power of Positive Thinking.  Does it really work or is just a bunch of jibber-jabber that people buy into believing?

The other day while teaching a class, I had two students react to a situation that was very inappropriate.  I took this opportunity to teach a lesson to the entire class.  Simply by saying that "we define who we are by the way we react to a situation".
Could this statement be applied to everyday thinking? I say Yes, so, whatever happens in my life is going to happen, It's how I react that will define me.

I can be honest and say that I have not reacted very well to certain situations in my life.  And because of my reaction, I have some regrets that I will have to live with for the rest of my life.

Which brings me back to The Power of Positive Thinking:
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.

I have nothing to lose and alot to gain, I'm going to try the Positve Thinking for 21 days.  I hope to report back positve things.  LOL!!!

I have my first Positve to report.   I have lost 23.2 lbs
