You are more likely to imagine positive situations or outcomes & disregard the thoughts related to giving up, failure, or roadblocks. What the mind expects, it finds. If you anticipate joy, good health, happiness, and accomplishment, then you will experience each one.

Thinking positively may sound like a simple shift in attention – and it is – but it is a mind-set that must be developed.

Psychologist Anmol Singh

Analyzing Success And Failure 

One feels positive and joyful when one realizes that he/she is successful. However, when he/she faces failure, one feels defeated.

The definition of success and failure varies from one person to person according to the stage of life a person is at that point of time. It is important to have success and failure well defined for yourself, because, based on your definition, you feel happiness, wholeness and greater or lesser inner well being. There are different levels of success and of failure.

For example, for some the greatest success is to be happy and radiant, whatever happens inside or outside. If one manages to keep happy in the face of failure & adverse condition for him/her it is a success. Because to be happy means that I am connected with my essential worth or inner self, my being is awake and alive. Failure does not reduce my vitality, my contentment levels.
