Attracting positive things into your life: Get rid of negative thinking

Yesterday I mentioned that I hadn't won the lottery again....reading my personal whinge it made me wonder if I actually attract "lack" by thinking that I am wasting money on things like the lottery. Which is interesting, because today I was sent a link to a NLP site, NLP = Neuro Linguistic Programming...which says exactly that. You get what you think about. So does that mean that if  I tell myself that I am going to win a million dollars I am actually going to?

No - because that is a "demanding type plea" and one that I don't actually believe will happen. So any positive thinking is offset by the "yeah right" thought that directly follows the request for more money.

So a couple of thoughts. If you attract that which you think about, remember that every thought that you have, every word that you speak and every action that you make is your choice. No-one else is responsible for anything you think, say or do.

Think about it.

Most of us think about what we don't have. In my case - a "decent win on the lottery" because I "deserve" it. Says who?

We spend most of our time thinking about things we want, without recognising what it is we have already achieved. So when you are thinking about your goal setting, it is important to add in a few extra thoughts to the process.
- Be grateful for what you have already. 
- Be grateful for what you have achieved, and the person you have become as a result of achieving, or working on those goals.
- Take the "But" "If only" "I'm not worthy" thought processes from your mind and vocabulary. If you believe that you are worthy of receiving then you stand more chance of achieving whatever it is you say you want. If you don't believe in yourself, how on earth are you going to get anything?

Change your thoughts and you can change your life. If you believe in yourself that is.
