Thoughts and Happiness
Our thinking power is the most potent power. People who know how to use this power can accomplish anything in this world. The world famous author and philosopher, Prentice Mulford in his books ‘Your Forces and How to Use Them’ says: ‘Thoughts are things’. It is unequivocally true that thinking big is the seed of achievement.
Similarly, we must be very careful in using this thought power. If we think negative and destructive thoughts, the outcome will be negative and destructive. While thinking thoughts, eschew from indulging yourself in negative thoughts; Negative thinking is negative and destructive. It will attract failure and desperation.
In the chapter, Last Leaf by O Henry we saw the principle of thought power in action. When Johnsy had fixed her mind on negative thought that she would die the moment the last ivy leaf on the opposite wall fell, she was not getting well. However, when she changed her negative thinking to positive thinking after seeing the last leaf stuck to the climber, her health began to improve.
So, we should also keep this principle of thought power in our mind. We should think happy and joyous thoughts to be happy and joyous always.
In the chapter "Last leaf" by O Henry .
