when things go wrong, remember its not what happens to you that matters most. It's how you think about what happens to you. example: Let's say that you are at the airport, waiting to catch a flight, and the airline tells you "sorry! Mechanical trouble. You wont be leaving for three hours! You are furious. You tell yourself this is terrible..This is a disaster. While you remain stressed, things get worse! People will trip over you, spill coffee in your lap and lose your baggage. When you fight life always win. Then finally you cool down. You tell yourself There's nothing to I can do about it. I'll make the most out of it. Suddenly everything changes from nowhere an old friend appears, or make a new friend, or stumble on a fresh opportunity and life begins to support you. Once we change our thoughts about a bad situation we can take advantage of it. Life's great opportunities mostly arrive disguised as misfortune and disaster.

for a moment, I really thought you are giving out an argument about the reasons for not to think positive. .. but, it turned out otherwise. And, thanks to that. It is always NECESSARY to be positive. just read this example. The timber from one tree can make about a million match-sticks. But, JUST ONE match stick can burn down over a thousand of big trees. One NEGATIVE thought can burn down hundreds of thousands of your positive dreams. So, ALWAYS be POSITIVE Good luck.

You are furious. You tell yourself this is terrible As much as I'm sure there are many ppl like that. I personally would hardly consider it a disaster for starters...Sure I would be annoyed but these things happen and I guess all the traveling Ive done and the mishaps that HAVE gone on (usually with the bus system LOL) at this point in life..WHATEVER ya know..I'd rather be late and have to deal with reconnecting my flights than crashing into the ocean

for me thinking positive is a way of life.. In order for us to live a successful, positive life, we must have positive attitude. It's critically important to a develop a positive attitude. You can't have positive success without positive life and you can't have positive life without positive attitude. The ability to THINK POSITIVE is a result of positive attitude toward life. :)

Thinking in a positive way is always the healthiest thing to do. Every action or comment has a reaction. When we put negativity into the equation, it never solves the problem. Being negative usually caauses more issues than you had to start with. Being positive is the beginning of success.

When life hands you lemons, make lemonade. Take each moment to see that there is a greater reason for things happening. People look for the negative but fail to see the positive. Look at all the things we complain about but then remember the things we wouldn't have without them. We complain about the rain, but if there were no rain then there would be no rainbow.

Everything happens to us has a purpose. As the bible says, All things work together for good. Thinking positive is healthy to our mind and body. If you react positively to all circumstances you are free from stress and mental pressure. In your insights, it was a good thing that the mechanical discovered while still in land rather than it will be discovered while on air and the tendency the plane crashed. Some people has no gratitude in things happen to us, they are so hard to understand the circumstances brings out. It was a blessing in disguise to see your old friend so there are unexplainable things that gives us blessing in return.
