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.
