Does Happy Thoughts Create a Happy Life?

Adela Hirthe Comments Off on Does Happy Thoughts Create a Happy Life?

Our thought processes can make a positive difference to how happy we are, and positive thinking can help you to create a happier life. Our thought process is how we communicate with ourselves, as an internal dialogue. We actually communicate in our minds with ourselves more than we communicate with anyone else during the day, and our thoughts can be either constructive or destructive. Changing our thought patterns to more positive thoughts can have a positive impact on our happiness.Negative things that other people have said about us (parents, teachers, spouses or friends) can stick and become part of our internal dialogue. This can have a negative impact on our happiness. Recognising, and then changing these thoughts can help us to lead happier lives. Challenging repetitive negative thoughts, and replacing them with more positive affirmations can change the way you feel and increase overall life satisfaction. Over time, positive thinking can help us to have better social relationships, think better, do more, and feel better about ourselves.Thinking more positively takes practice and involves many processes. Recognising the power of words and replacing negative words, statements or beliefs for positive ones can help us become happier. Try practising some positive affirmations daily. Meditation or prayer can help us experience more positive emotions. Writing thoughts and feelings can be cathartic and help us recognise and externalise negative thoughts feelings, making it easier to replace them with positive ones. Whilst changes won’t happen immediately, over time you will notice positive changes in your life from the simple act of positive thinking.
