Want a More Positive Life – Use the Law of Attraction

One of the fastest ways to see the law of attraction in action is to be and feel more positive. When you are feeling positive you will appreciate all of the great things and people in your life, you will realize that your life is really not that bad and most importantly you will begin to attract many more positive situations and events into your life.

Positivity Tips

1. Act as if you are confident and happy – if you walk around with a scowl on your face day in and day out, it is obvious that not only will you feel miserable you will project a miserable vibration which in turn will attract more circumstances for you to feel miserable about. Therefore even if you are not feeling particularly confident or happy act as if you are. Walk tall, put a smile on your face, and when someone asks how you are tell them you are absolutely fantastic. Doing this will raise your vibration and help you have a more positive out look.

2. Live in the moment – the past is history so therefore there’s nothing you can do apart from accept it. Living in the past will only do one thing and that is have you relive your mistakes over and over again. Instead make a conscious effort to focus on the present. Take each moment as it comes and do your best to keep your mind fixed on the here and now. This will enable you to enjoy each precious moment of your life and force you to think about your words and actions more carefully.

3. Focus on what you want – it is very easy to join the masses who spend each and every day complaining about what they do not like about their lives. If you have been prone to this behavior, ask yourself this question, what has changed by you spending your time focusing on what you do not like? Most likely the answer is nothing has changed. So why not try something different? Spend your time focusing on the things that you like about your life, in time you will notice how much more positive you feel about your future.

4. Surround your self with positive influences – the law of attraction states that like attracts like so if you surround yourself with negative people and situations you will begin to emit the same sort of vibration. Instead focus on the positive, read inspirational material, spend time with positive or happy people and join online groups or social networks where positive people gather. Basically bombard your mind with positive information, the more you focus on the positive the easier it will be for you to begin to truly feel more positive.

By making these four simple changes to your day-to-day life you will begin to shift your focus, your words and your actions will take on a more positive tone. Doing so will raise your vibration level and enable you to attract the things that you really want into your life. Make the choice today to start being more positive, after all you have tried the other way, and nothing has changed in your life. Now is the time to do something different, now is the time to start over by making a commitment to living a positive focused life.

Using Positive Self Affirmation to Increase Your Vertical Jump

You know that there are certain exercises that will work for certain areas of your body. You will include push ups and pull ups to work your arms. You do cardio exercises to keep your heart in shape. There are also exercises that will help you increase your vertical leap.

As beneficial as exercising is, you aren’t going to get very far with a horrible attitude. How you think and feel about yourself is going to reflect in your efforts to increase your vertical Jump. Basically, if you don’t believe that you are making progress, you won’t. How is this possible?

It is all about your subconscious. If you maintain a negative outlook, your subconscious will sabotage your efforts, without you even realizing it. You can exercise until you fall over, but without self-affirmation and a good attitude, all that exercise won’t help you increase your vertical Jump even the slightest bit.

One of the best ways to get to the point of successful self-affirmation is through visualizing. Many coaches will tell their athletes to visualize the win. The same applies to increasing your vertical Jump. If you picture yourself reaching your goals, all your hard work will pay off and you will get there.

Self-affirmation, positive reinforcement, and visualization are all about the psychology. It is about building your self-esteem – your confidence in yourself. Without enough confidence you cannot hope to increase your vertical Jump, or keep you on top of your game.

One of the most helpful tips that you can do is to verbally affirm your efforts and the results that you are after. For example, if you are trying to increase your vertical Jump, you should tell yourself, out loud, that you can do it. Don’t worry about what other people are thinking about you talking to yourself. Keep repeating the phrases that you need to hear yourself say in order to get where you want to be.

Alen is the creator of The Jumping Manual Review, here Alen will give you a honest review on the Jumping Manual of you want to know more about Alen he has a personal page at Zimbio called Get Higher a Vertical Jump have a look at it today.

Drive Away All Negative Energy and Capture All Positive Energy

In today’s fast moving scenario when there is negativity all around you its always better to fasten your seat belts and be prepared with all positive energy to face challenges in life. Now things have changed remarkably. Negative thoughts, negative views & negative people . There are many people who are trying to pull you down . You have to survive and reach your goal. Things will change only when you will want them to change. You have to start from yourself first then only you can change the society and their thinking at large.

First and the foremost thing to start with is stay away from all negative people and all negative thoughts. Negative people think negative and they imbibe the same culture in you. If you stay away from them you shield yourself from negative friends. Forgive each and every person who has caused you harm or has spoken against you. In this way you free yourself from taking revenge from them and remain at peace of mind because you don’t have any enemies. You love all of them and give respect to everyone. I know its hard to practice but this is the only way you can inculcate all positive energy in yourself and drive the negative.

Have a Big heart and a broad mind . This is really going to help you a lot because there are a lot of people around you who are plotting against you. When you are aware you want to teach them a lesson. Preserve your time and energy for doing something good for yourself, for doing work, for enjoying rather than counter blow and do the same. Your life is precious and God has gifted you just with one single Human life to do all the good things that you can do rather than plotting against others. I just mean utilize your time and get the maximum out of it so that you don’t repent in the near future. Time is very valuable and once lost can never be gained so climb your ladder of success with full zeal and fervor.

Things may not remain the same as they are today but you always remember that their is an almighty looking after all and they will punish the person who does wrong and reward the innocent ones. Be satisfied with what you have. Don’t be dissatisfied with what others have. Jealousy arises all negative thoughts and give rise to lots of heart burn. Free yourself from all these nonsense stuffs and live a healthy life.

Keep yourself focused and committed towards your goal. Nothing can stop you and a time will come when you will be looked upon with honor even by your enemies. Its very correctly said ” Its your attitude not your aptitude that determines your altitude “.

Open up your mind and get all the positive energy because a very famous saying goes ” Our minds are like parachute and they work best when open “. Be open minded and think positively and reach the stars.

All the best.

From Tantrums to Positive Behavior – A Frugal Mom’s Tale

When my son started kindergarten, the onslaught of “give me…” and “I want…” started. Every trip to the store became a battle of wills. All I wanted to do was to get in and get out with what was on my shopping list. My son was constantly pointing out what he wanted me to buy, and would throw tantrums when I wouldn’t put the various items the shopping cart. It got to the point where I didn’t even want to bring my son to the store.

Reward the Good, Not Punish the Bad

Eventually, I came to the realization that I needed to stop punishing my son for his bad behavior and focus on rewarding his good behavior. First, I sat down with my son and discussed all the things that he wanted: more video game time, trips to McDonalds, trips to the park, Pokeman cards, a trip to Walt Disney World, etc. We wrote down everything that he wanted.Then we discussed everything that I did and did not like about his behavior. We made a chart of good behavior and bad behavior.

I designed an easy system of points for him to follow: green was for good behavior, yellow for warnings and red was for bad behavior. Every day, he was given the opportunity to earn ten to fifteen points. Any yellows he received wouldn’t help or hurt his green points, they were just warnings. But if he got any red points, then we would subtract that amount from his green points. For everything that he wanted, we assigned a number of points to that privilege. For example, for a half hour of video games, he needed to spend five green points. If he didn’t have enough points saved up that day to play video games, then it wasn’t an option. After a few weeks, once he learned that I was serious about the new system and that he did indeed get rewarded for his good behavior, he came around. Shopping trips to the store stopped being a battle of wills.

Reward Programs can Teach Kids Important Budgeting Skills

My son has been on our green-yellow-red system for a year now. We’ve seen a dramatic improvement in his behavior at home, in school and in public. Additionally, my son is starting to understand the value of saving. If he wants something more than video games and an occasional trip to McDonald’s, he has to save his points. Instead of playing his video game for an hour, he only plays for a half-hour. By managing his daily point spending, he’s learned that he can now spend his points on something he really wants, a trip to Disney World.

These lessons just don’t apply to getting your kids to behave better, it also teaches important money management skills. Money, points, or stars…it doesn’t matter what type of “currency” you use. What’s important is giving your kids a foundation of budgeting skills that they can use throughout their life. What starts as spending and saving points can turn into savvy budgeting.

Using Positive Affirmations to Achieve Any Goal

I set goals. I have been setting goals for most of my life. When I was a paperboy I used to set goals for how many new customers I would acquire so that I could win whatever prize the Monterey Peninsula Herald was giving to the paperboys that month. For the longest time I was on a roll, it seemed like nearly every goal I set, and I really had a desire for, I achieved. But then there came a time when I couldn’t achieve anything. I would set goals for myself in my business and I would come close, but something would always get in the way of success. It seemed like I was finding ways of talking my way out of the winner’s circle.

Does this happen to you? Do you feel like you are always talking yourself out of success? As soon as you start to set goals for yourself, do you, like I used to, suddenly have nagging thoughts about how you aren’t up to the task? Do you doubt your qualifications to carry it through? Do you feel like you just don’t have what it takes?

If this has happened to you, and I’ll bet that it has, then you need to listen to your inner dialogue and change it to focus on the positive. You see, my belief is that we have been conditioned to react to the negative events in our lives. If you don’t believe me try to think about how many positive things happened to you today. Now think about how many negative things happened to you today. If you could remember more negative than positive things you’ve already proved my point. How can you change this perspective? The trick is that instead of obeying your negative commands, you can use positive self-talk to counter the negativity in your life and then overcome nearly all the anxious thoughts that come with them.

Setting Goals and Sticking to Them with Positive Self-Talk

If you are like nearly everyone else on this planet, when you set your goals you are initially filled with enthusiasm and excitement. You can’t wait to start out on your path to success. But then you might think, “I don’t know, I tried that once and it didn’t work” or maybe “That might work for Ernie but I don’t have the same education he has.” You thoughts begin to get clouded with self-doubt and self-defeating thoughts that can stop you in your tracks before you even get started.

The fact is that it can be extremely difficult to make the most of your life when you are constantly talking yourself out of being a success. Believe me, I know! Worse, it can be frustrating and discouraging to have these thoughts constantly plaguing you because they can cause you to quit even before you make an attempt! Many of us, in fact, don’t even realize we have these negative thoughts. The only things you know is that you don’t have the confidence to stick to your plans and reach your goals.

But I didn’t write this article to discourage you. I wrote this article to let you know that there is another way!

Positive self-talk is an effective method that you can use when setting your goals. It can ensure that you stick to them, even if you have never been able to do this before. The way this method works is that once you’ve decided what goal is important to you, and have planned the logistics of how you are going to attain your goal, you use positive self talk to reinforcement your desire. When self-doubt starts kicking in, you respond with positive affirmations that boost your confidence in your success so that you don’t surrender to negative pressures. You’re obviously not a quitter and you are certainly not a failure so use this method to strengthen your belief in yourself!

Re-Programming Your Mind

My practice, Total Mind Therapy, uses this tag line, “Helping you program your mind for success”. One of the ways you can do this is though the use of affirmations. What are affirmations? Affirmations are essentially positive statements that you repeat to yourself that re-program your mind in a positive direction. You can use positive affirmations the moment you have a self-defeating thought, countering negativity with a motivating statement.

Examples of positive affirmations are: “I am worthy of great success,” or “I see myself in the winner’s circle.” Using these types of statements replace negativity with empowering thoughts that will help you move toward your goals.

Implementing positive self-talk into your daily life is easier than you might think. Right now you are probably not aware of the severity of the negative dialogue currently within your mind. However, once you start keeping track and begin countering these thoughts with positive self-talk, you will suddenly realize that you have been self-sabotaging the goals you set for yourself, almost from the minute that you make them. Using this process will open your eyes to exactly how much your inner conversation has been interfering with your success. Once you start to get a handle on them you’ll again feel hopeful and begin to have the confidence that you can now set goals and surpass them.

Using your positive self-talk, you will be able to easily set and achieve your long and short-term goals. And as you use your affirmations, you’ll have tools within your reach to help you push yourself further than ever before. Learning to counteract and then quiet negativity with positive thoughts and affirmations will move you faster and more easily toward setting and attaining your future goals with ease.

The Side Effects of Green Tea Are Mainly Positive

The green tea side effects are mostly positive, unless the brand that you are drinking or the supplement you are taking is loaded with caffeine. Any negative side effects of green tea would have to do with the caffeine content.

Normally, a 100 mg extract would contain only 2-4mg of caffeine, but some supplement manufacturers add as much as 500 mg of caffeine per capsule. That is particularly true in the case of the fat burners. A person that takes that kind of capsule is likely to experience nervousness, anxiety and insomnia. Those aren’t green tea side effects. They are caused by caffeine.

They may be side effects of green tea drinking, if a person consumes too many cups per day. The caffeine-content per eight ounce cup varies between 10 and 80mg. Drinking more than five cups per day can start to cause problems. It can also raise your blood pressure and cause heart palpitations or irregular heartbeat. In other words, you have to be careful and limit consumption.

There are green tea side effects that some people should be aware of. One of the side effects of green tea is a reduction of clotting. In most cases, this is beneficial. But, people with bleeding issues or those that are about to undergo surgery should not take the supplement or drink the beverage.

There are no negative side effects of green tea extracts, if they are properly standardized. They should provide 80mg of catechins per 100mg of the extract. Check the label. If the catechin content is not listed or it is lower than 80%, choose a better supplement.

Catechins are responsible for the positive green tea side effects. Those may include healthier cholesterol levels, increased energy, improved ability to concentrate and easier weight loss. The extract is known to be beneficial for stomach disorders, including diarrhea and vomiting. It helps the body shed excess fluids, reduces swelling and has natural anti-inflammatory activity. Future benefits to your health include a reduced risk of cancer, heart disease, kidney stones and type II diabetes.

People that are concerned about the side effects of green tea have probably heard of some of these benefits. There are many skeptics out there. There are even doctors that say dietary supplements are of no benefit. Many of them are not. There are some excellent products on the market. They’re just a little harder to find.

In order to provide an effective supplement, manufacturers must use the right form of a nutrient and the correct mode of delivery. Gel caps are fine for some purposes. But, many nutrients are quickly degraded by stomach acid and must be protected with an enteric coating. Otherwise, supplementation is useless. On the other hand, good supplements will provide many health benefits. Once you find one and begin taking it, you’ll see that the skeptics are wrong.

Now that you know more about the green tea side effects, why not take the time to learn how to choose an effective supplement? Visit my website today to learn about a multi-nutritional supplement I’ve discovered that I’d like to share with you.

Positive Ion Control – Cannon’s Downrigger Technology

Electroreception is the biological ability to sense electrical fields and impulses. Although very uncommon in mammals, electroreception is a common ability in many fish species. Since air is a very poor medium for electricity, electroreception is a trait found primarily in water; both freshwater and saltwater.

Since electrical impulses cause muscle contraction, every muscle movement produces an electrical discharge. This is particularly useful for predators, such as sharks, who are seeking prey. Normal movement causes low levels of impulses, while a wounded fish would cause large levels of impulses. Because sharks are among the most sensitive to electrical impulses, they are also among the greatest predators of the ocean. Through the darkness of the depths of the ocean or the cover of murky water, sharks can easily find their prey. Aside from enabling a fish to find its prey, electroreception is beneficial in a variety of other ways. It allows fish to evade predators, communicate with other fish, navigate at night or during other moments of low visibility, find objects in the water, and it aids in reproduction. Electrical currents caused by the earth’s magnetic fields can also act as a biological compass for animals that possess this incredible ability.

Some downriggers offer the ability to use positive ions to create electrical fields in the water. This is referred to by the Cannon line as “positive ion control”. This process involves a voltage difference between the downrigger wire and the boat that causes an electric field. The size of this field is somewhat dependent on the size of the boat and the materials of which it is made. Some fish are attracted to a small positive charge, while a strong positive or negative charge will repel them. Positive ion control can be extremely useful when targeting these types of fish. Catfish, trout, salmon, and bass are among the species of game fish attracted by positive ion control. Since different voltage levels tend to attract different types of fish, it is important to know what species is being targeted. When used correctly, positive ion control offers a competitive edge to both the serious and the occasional fisherman.

Positive Affirmation – 3 Tips For Better Results

If you’ve gotten into the habit of creating positive affirmation statements to support your desired results in life, you’re probably noticing some changes already. Yet sometimes at first your feedback comes in fits and spurts. Something great will happen, and then things will taper off for a bit. It can get frustrating. Fortunately, there’s usually something else to tweak. Try these 3 tips for intermediate “affirmers.”

1. Keep tabs on your everyday language. Sure, when you started out it was great to have a couple sentences to call on when things began to feel rough. Maybe you even got into a habit of beginning or ending your day with affirmations. Or you taped them up on the bathroom mirror, on the cover of your journal, or on the dashboard of your car. Those are all great ways of keeping a planned statement present in your consciousness.

Yet everyday language counts, too. Remember that any firm statement is an affirmation. Begin to monitor your day-to-day conversation, both inside and out, for statements that conflict with the positive affirmation you’ve chosen.

Let’s be clear:

* If your planned statement affirms abundance, but you spend a lot of time telling the kids “we can’t afford it,” then you’ve got a conflict. Try this instead: “Let’s get some other things today and put that on our list for another time.”

* If your planned statement affirms comfort in your body, yet your inner conversation routinely says “My back is killing me,” then you’ve got a conflict. Try this instead: “As I breathe deeply, the muscles in my back relax.”

* If your planned statement affirms a happy relationship with your spouse, yet you secretly criticize his evenings spent zoning out in front of the TV, then you’ve got a conflict. Try this instead: “I appreciate how hard Jim works all day. It’s great when we find ways to relax and unwind together.”

2. Expect your behavior to change. The language of an affirmation is extremely powerful. Yet the words themselves are not magic. It’s more about the context they create. No matter what your inside conversation, if you rigorously continue doing the same old things, you will continue to produce the same old results.

The positive statements are meant to inspire you to come up with fresh solutions and follow through on them. Some of the ideas that “pop” into your head may seem strange. They will surely be different from the old ideas you entertained in the past. That’s because you are now moving into a slightly different world — a world of great possibility!

Build some credibility with yourself by trying out a few of the crazy ideas you get. As you do, you’ll no doubt find that some work better than others. No matter. Follow through as best you can on the the ideas that begin working for you. Once you start to see results, take notice. Your affirmation is taking on material form. It’s also becoming more believable.

* You begin to believe that you will one day be able to buy the kids that gadget they asked about because it’s already becoming a bit easier to manage the essentials. Didn’t you just get to payday with cash left in your wallet? Darn tootin’ you did!

* You begin to believe your back will relax as you exhale tension because after the massage therapist finished with you last week, you felt great for two whole days. It’s possible!

* You begin to believe that you and your spouse will enjoy the benefits of a closer relationship because last Tuesday after work, you spent some time on the couch watching TV with him. And then didn’t he say that it had felt nice? Yep. Well, it’s a start!

3. Consider affirming your state. State means how you “are.” When you “are” abundance, or health, or connectedness, you make choices that match your experience. Of course when you “are” scarcity, or illness, or separation, then your choices match that experience as well.

Observe a role model to see how they are being. Let’s say your role model is confident and charismatic. Fine. Affirm that you are confident and charismatic. Better yet, affirm “I am confidence and charisma.” Using language, bring yourself into the same state of being that your role model enjoys.

You will not turn into your role model. But before you know it, you are likely to begin making the same type of choices that they would make if they were in your situation. The most likely outcome of that strategy, of course, is that your situation will begin to look a little more like theirs. If you’ve chosen wisely, that’s bound to be a very good thing!
