What is positive thinking? A million dollar question for me till saturday.. and got the answer

Many people believe that positive thinking is nothing but anticipating good outcome only in all circumstances, irrespective of result, which means even negative result has to be taken in a positive way.
I was always getting obsessed with this definition as I never got succeeded by interpreting the negative result in positive way until i suffer from the unexpected result. It is always very difficult to stay positive in all circumstances. So I changed the positive thinking prospective to ready for worst case scenario so that no shocks can alter the stability of our mind as we have already prepared for this. This was my practice till date from past 10 years. Outcome is very positive even though it was still far from the perfect outcome. Reason is I had to suffer a lot (at least a day or two) with the expected negative outcome before settling down, as I was already half prepared myself for the outcome, which is still a lot better compared to my interpretation of positive thinking which can sometime give heart attack for the sudden change of things in life.
Complete reformation and actual definition was known on last saturday from the book bhagavadgita by swami vivekananda.
Positive thinking is nothing but not thinking about the results and happily accept everything as part of the game of life. More practical way is to see the god in every human being and do not get affected by circumstances and with emotionally detached. Explanation to this statement is as follows.
Lets take an example to elaborate it in more detail.
A,B,C,D,E,F are family members.
Father scolds her son C for not following best practices or for not achieving as per his expectations. Mother B loves her son C, daughter D, daughter-in-law E, son-in-law F. father is always unhappy as no one understands him and his only duty is to set the things right in his family whereas in reality no body in his family was up to his expectations. So he was always scolding others and keep on thinking about his family and fearing about their future. But B always loves her children irrespective of their defects. She does not expect anything in return from her own husband or son or daughter. So her love gives power to her son and her daughter.

When expectations are very high, it is always impossible to deliver for a fresher


A fresher in IT cannot deliver the promises made by him at the time of joining as he was not aware of the obstacles during the journey of his career. So even if he performs better than his peers, his performance still be considered as below expectations because of high expectations..
People lost faith in congress and BJP hence they voted for AAP by believing it can deliver all the promises. But because of media and political parties AAP had to fight against all odds and still striving hard to deliver their promises. Yet AAP still be called as failure of delivering the promises by people as the expectations are very high and expectations are ,most of the time, logic less. No body thinks, whether the promises can be delivered in a month's span as promised. No body follows logic. Hence in order to deliver the most difficult promises made by AAP, AAP had to follow some unforeseen or unusual methods to make them in reality.
Now their future is at stake as media, political parties got chance to criticize AAP and its unusual methods.

AAP did big mistake by promising many things at one go and struggling so hard to make them in reality. It is not easy to implement many things specified in their manifesto. But kudos to AAP that they have done far better job in very less span of time (20 days). Because of the many things promised in their manifesto, whatever they did are unnoticed or still being criticized by others saying AAP is doing only showcasing business rather than performing.
But BJP,congress, media forgot one thing. Many people forgot that BJP,congress led states gave so many promises during elections but most of them never become reality. Has any one or any media questioned about those promises? Never. Media is always scapegoat of the leading parties. They want only sensational news rather than actual facts. Moreover, AAP did try their best to deliver their promises and those fruits are now actually enjoying by Delhi people.

If BJP is honest and non-corrupted party, then people would have voted for it. But are they honest and trust worthy? I am not against Modi, because Modi is a great leader and great worker, which is the only reason i would vote for Modi's party in loksabha elections. Still I am not able to understand why Modi's party is not questioning congress corruptions and most of the time focus on AAP's actions?

Everyone forgot about congress ministry corruption, their dominance, sonia's indirect ruling and all media are quoting their ministry remarks against AAP. I can understand as congress is the most corrupted party and yes they are the one to say that. But what happened to the people and media and BJP? Are they supporting congress remarks? congress has no right to speak about the governance and ruling. I think my long dream congress to be vanished in india seems never become reality. What is AAP doing? Did they corrupt people? Did they loot peoples' money? Did they avail luxuries of power? Did they bluff people by not acting anything against their manifesto? No media has dare to question the lakhs of crores of scams by congress? where are these people when the delhi brutal gang rape happened and still no justice happened even after a year?  what did BJP do for preventing these incidents in delhi? Did they ever raise voice against scams, did they ever come to roads for women safety in delhi? Why are they questioning AAP. AAP did mistakes. Everyone does mistakes. But what is important is whether they are doing for themselves or they are doing for people. If BJP or media raised their voice for women safety in delhi, then at least some change would have happened. Now coming to the brighter part of the AAP's latest strike is now police will be at least be responsible by doing their duty and accept the requests from people.  Shame on media, BJP and congress..

One thing is for sure. Our political parties, media will remain as is as long as we blindly follow their speculations rather than analyzing the actual facts. I am sure neither congress, BJP can deliver these things in any state. If AAP loses its credibility because of the latest developments by media and political parties, it is impossible to see the political transformation or system change in India.
