10YearOld Demystifies Positive Thinking and Success
[Music]
imagine
i returned home from school and my mom
asks me
how was your day
and my first response is
good
i am sure many of you can relate to that
response
right
anyone
but what does that positive word good
really mean
truly convey
we probably say it just to sound
positive in our responses
think about it for a second
we even think that just saying some
positive words or thinking positively
will bring the success that we want
but then
why do all positive and well thought out
plans
don’t succeed
weirdest positive thing can go wrong in
creating the success that we all want
positive thinking is surely a great
start but there’s a serious limitation
to the way we
understand it
and that’s exactly what i want to share
today
what is the missing link between
positive thinking and success
how about if i say that just like talent
positive thinking is overrated
especially when it comes to creating
success in life
not just that
apart from positive thinking and
outcomes there are two important
elements that are missing in the success
formula
actions
and alignment
together i call it my positive trilogy
where our thinking actions and outcomes
need to align
yes
the alignment is the key it’s the glue
to success
you
want to create
and i’ve highlighted the same philosophy
in my first book one positive thought
i will also share the formula that
helped me a lot
it’s called
becoming smart
which i will dive into details in just a
moment
but before that to be honest it took me
some time to realize the answer to this
question where this positive thing can
go wrong in creating success
but i figured it out from my own
experience
let me explain with a simple example
one time i ran a lot after many weeks of
not running
see
positive thinking and positive action
about staying fit
but the outcome wasn’t as positive as my
legs started aching badly the next day
in life do we have such simple examples
to crucial ones where our thinking
actions and outcomes don’t really align
the way it should be
well
let me share a story where i again
realized the power of this positive
trilogy it also worked for me
it was summer of 2020
i got an opportunity to audition for a
big acting program so i started
practicing a lot
then my mom told me to write on my board
i am selected
and i was like
why
she explained and then said now do it
so i did audition the next day
and later
my dad got a call back from the acting
program
and guess what
i got selected
this is where i realize the power of i
am exercise a part of our thinking
positive thinking
i am exercise is truly magical and do
you know it is much more than just
positive thinking
i am engages your future results with
your present thoughts it makes you more
determined and you become more
responsible for your actions
yes
you heard it correct
the
action word
i am is an action concept not a wishful
or fancy concept
you and i must put our work into it
because remember
there are no shortcuts to success
and if you try it
it could be a short circuit
alignment is the key in this positive
trilogy
and that my friends will transform your
positive thinking into your success
another short journey that i want to
take you through is when i had a goal of
publishing my first book one positive
thought on christmas day of 2019
we were on track until
my dad got a call from ndi in the first
week of november
my grandma suffered a major heart attack
and my dad left for india within hours
the next few weeks were
quite challenging
while i was praying for my grandma i
kept working on my book with my mom and
dad’s encouragement
then
i received another call
that
my grandma is with god now
for days i
couldn’t do anything
but then i remembered the goal
december 25th
i knew that my grandma’s blessings were
with me so
i put my actions again and then finally
published my first book on
december 25th
my grandma could never see the book
physically but i knew that she must be
very proud that i kept putting my
actions during the tough time
and this
is the power of end
as long as you keep your eyes on the end
the outcome
you won’t quit
and that makes all the difference
between someone positively thinking
about the outcome versus someone working
and aligning their actions towards
desired outcome
if that my friends will transform your
positive thinking into your success
but how do we make sure that our
positive thinking actions and outcomes
are aligned
how do we make sure that our positive
thinking isn’t sabotaging our own
success
well
the answer to these questions is a
special but simple formula called
becoming smart
so
what is becoming smart
it is the formula to know whether your
thinking actions and outcomes are
aligned
everything you need to be successful
lies within this formula
it’s beyond positive thinking
becoming smart
i assume that most of you are aware of
smart goal setting
smart goal setting is a powerful tool
for goal setting but it gets
supercharged when you add this becoming
as it brings other elements into the
picture especially
alignment
s for specific
m for measurable
a for achievable r for realistic and t
for time bound
b
for becoming
do you believe in your success
if not double up it this is your power
of i am
e efficient
how well you execute your actions
c consistent
don’t give up keep trying this is your
power of end
oh organized time management
m
mindful awareness of you and others
feelings
i inspiring to yourself and others
and navigate planning your how to’s
overcoming fears and distractions
and g
giving your success is beneficial to
others as well
so
how would you feel if from now on by
knowing this formula becoming smart you
have the power to create a beautiful
positive world for you success for you
and leaving a legacy for people around
you by being aware of this mindset of
aligning your thoughts actions and
outcomes
now
i want you to apply this formula in
three steps
first
write three things that you want to
achieve in the next 90 days to 6 months
like gardening starting a blog or losing
10 pounds of weight
anything
second
circle the one which you feel is closest
to your heart or you really want to
achieve asap
and third
now apply becoming smart
this formula will automatically break
all three elements thoughts actions and
outcomes align them and modify if it’s
not
can you promise to yourself that you
will complete the third step before
going to bed tonight and ready with an
exciting goal tomorrow
positive trial audrey
it’s with you
time for you to embrace becoming smart
and remove the missing link from your
positive thinking and your success
we all want success
we all want a change for the better
we all want to upgrade to the next best
possible version
we all want to impact lives around the
world
we all want to leave a positive legacy
and it starts
with this
the day you make a decision about your
life
is the day your world will change
and that day starts when you embrace
this positive trilogy when you apply the
formula becoming smart where you are
consciously aligning your thoughts
actions and outcomes to create the
success you truly want
you
are
next you
