Positive Thinking versus Positive Action

     I have always believed in positive thinking even reading self-help books that supported my belief.  Positive thinking helped me have a better outlook on life, which is an important part of life but there’s more to it than thinking positive. 

     You could go through life with a positive attitude but without positive action your achievements might be diminished.  You need a positive attitude to take positive action so that attitude is important but it’s only the first step.  It’s not always easy to take that all-important step toward positive action but it is rewarding and gets easier with each step you take.

     Some people are blessed by knowing what they want in life but others (including me) tend to meander through life without that internal knowledge of my personal objective.  Positive thinking helped me be open to possibilities and positive action makes some of those dreams possible. 

     Even though I wasn’t sure what life would bring I was anxious and somewhat tenuous about the experiences that lay ahead but in the end those positive actions always lead me to be more confident.

     Positive thinking and positive action can help everyone but who is better off the person that knows their purpose in life early on in life or the person that tries many things looking for their purpose.  Which is sweeter knowing your purpose or finding your purpose? I’m not sure it really matters as long as you don’t give up your search.  “Just Saying…”
