“Positive thinking will let you do everything better than negative thinking will.” – Zig Ziglar

My Thoughts:

This sounds pretty obvious, but you will be surprised just how people think. One person may think something way different than another. For example, you may think a painting may look so great, while another person may think it’s awful. As obvious something can be, it really isn’t as we all think differently in our minds.

Think Negative 

I would suggest thinking negative first and then the positive. Let’s say there is something that you decide to do, don’t just think the positive outcome of it, think the negative too. Anything that you come across, think of the negative aspect of it too, besides the positive. Keep the negative in your mind and focus on it. I think if you want the right answer you would need to look at both sides instead of just one side. This is how being successful is and accomplishing something is done more accurately.

Think Positive

Of course, you want to think the positive of everything. More importantly, I want to mention if something is going negative or if you are having a bad day, think positive about it. Yes, you will think of the negative, but consider the positive side as well. Many people who are suffering, should think of the positive side too. This is how winning is done and once you think of the positive instead of the negative you can find the results you’re looking for.

Overall, I agree with Zig Ziglar, but I think it is important to think both sides as well. Thinking both sides might give you something you just didn’t know existed. Some circumstances you may just want to think positive. At the end, everyone thinks one way or the other, I’m just saying think both ways.
