Man and thought are lifelong partners. Thoughts remain with a man throughout his life. These thoughts play a major role in the development and decline of man.
Sometimes these thoughts bring a person to the heights of greatness in terms of character and dignity, and sometimes due to these thoughts, he reaches the low level. Constructive thoughts are success, courage, happiness, love and affection in a person. , greatness, elevation, beauty, and maturity of character, then bad thoughts lead to lack of courage, hatred, envy, resentment, stubbornness, sadness, failure, hatred, character disorder. It can make the impossible possible, and sometimes these thoughts become a punishment for a person.
The human mind and thinking
The human mind is the center of thought. Where bitter thoughts come and go throughout the day. If this mind is left free, it will go in any direction like a camel without a head, and maybe it will go to such a gorge. Reach the edge, where it is not possible to get up after falling. And if this mind is bound, then it is quite possible that it will become a well-equipped commander.
Think and change
Today there is a noise in the world about how change will come. How can we change this world? Is there anything we can do in the context of these changing circumstances to change our environment and circumstances? Can we achieve true happiness and fulfillment in the world by subduing the effects of deprivations and failures on our environment and ourselves? So how? The only answer to all these questions is a change of thinking! Only a change of thinking can bring about the revolution that we all need today. No one from outside will heal our sufferings and deprivations. In the context of changing circumstances, we will be able to change our thoughts only to be able to keep pace with the outside world.
Types of Thoughts
There are two major types of thoughts. The first is positive thought, and the second is negative thought.
Positive thinking
Positive thoughts bring positive changes to a person. When a person thinks positively, this positive thinking changes his performance, so when the performance changes, the person starts moving towards the goal. Thus, he keeps searching for new destinations. Then, finally, this positive thinking of his makes him successful. A person with positive thinking is never afraid of failure because he is never discouraged by failure. The positive thinking he gets after every failure is success. In this way, a change of thinking opens the doors of success for a person.
Negative thinking
Negative thoughts are the biggest obstacle in the way of human development. The human mind is suffering from negative thoughts. Why does this happen to me? Was there only one left in this factory of nature, on whom this trouble would come? Some such thoughts cling to his mind and soul throughout his life and weaken his mind to such an extent that he loses the ability to think and understand; thus, negative thoughts stand in the way of his success. They become obstacles. And this change of thinking keeps him from failing throughout his life.
Thinking, progress, and decline
Maulana Altaf Hussain Hali writes in one of his articles that there are only two thoughts that have had a great impact on the development and decline of the world. He says that the effect of the first thought was that a person did nothing in his life with his own thoughts and could not achieve any success; his negative thoughts did not allow him to do anything. While the effect of the second thought was that man opened the doors of progress upon himself, he gained access to the moon and began to put rods on the stars. Thoughts either lead us to progress or to decline. A change of thinking is the source of our success and failure.
Think of two incidents
For example, if there are three friends and one of them has a heart attack, both friends take him to the heart hospital. Now one of his two friends thought that I would not consume fat or foreign food, while the other thought that I also ate fat and foreign food. Surely the same will happen to me. Now the first friend. Due to his positive thinking, he will not suffer from health problems, while the other one will definitely end up in the heart hospital one day. This is the change of thinking (negative or positive thoughts) in every matter of life, our progress and degradation, or success and failure.
One thought impact
There was a boy named Bill. The teachers were angry with Bill, saying he was useless. It was the last day of the university when the teacher told Bill that he could only become a truck driver, and that's it! Today, everyone knows the name of Bill Gates. Yes..! The same Bill Gates who was dismissed by his Horward University teacher who told him he could only become a driver. Today, Bill Gates is the owner of the world's largest Microsoft company. And today, his name is at the top of the list at Horward University. This talented student was ours. Because of the change in thinking, Bill Gates got that position in the world today. Found that no one else could achieve that position in the world.
The example of Japan
Atomic bombs were dropped on two major Japanese cities, Hiroshima and Nagasaki. If the Japanese wanted to retaliate with a negative mindset, they could have done so. But they didn't do that. They created a revolution by changing their thinking that their enemy was still in need of them. They replaced the negative thinking of revenge with the positive thinking of acquiring creative abilities, and this change of thinking brought the enemy to their feet.
As a nation or as an individual, there is only one solution to all our problems, and that is a change of thinking. Change your thoughts. Big achievements and goals are waiting for you.
