A particular study by the National Science Foundation discovered that 80% of the thousands of thoughts that race through the mind of the average person every day, are negative.

It was also learnt from this study that 95% of all human thoughts are repetitive. It can be such a burden, a rollercoaster of uneventful experiences, if the majority of your thoughts were negative.

However, it’s possible to repattern your mind, diminish the negative and elevate the positive to amazing heights. Here’s how you can transform your life with positive thoughts.

Optimism, the Heart of Positive Thoughts

Optimism is commonly regarded as a general disposition towards the expectation of good. For us, Optimism is a mindset that channels only positive energy. It’s the beacon of good vibes.

Operating from this frame of mind doesn’t prevent negative thoughts from arising. You actually recognize them but consciously choose to focus on the good, believing that everything will eventually turn out right in your favor.

To sustain an optimistic mindset, you can engage in some healthy practices. Let’s figure out what they are.

Rid Your Mind of Negative Thoughts

Negative thoughts have a counterproductive effect on the brain, and ultimately work against your growth and fulfillment. To rid your mind of negative energy, you have to commit to thinking positively.

You have to be mentally aware of your thoughts; the good and the bad, then choose to identify with only the good.

You can practice positive thoughts and affirmations to ensure you stay optimistic.


“Once you replace negative thoughts with positive ones, you’ll start having positive results.”

— Willie Nelson, American musician


Practice Positive Thoughts and Affirmations

Practicing positive thoughts and affirmations is a great strategy for staying resilient and forging through the storm of life’s challenges.

“I know I will succeed.”

“I am deserving of everything good in life.”

“I won’t stop until I achieve my goals and objectives.”
