Habitual Thinking
The impact of all actions can be cumulative.
That includes thought.
Cumulative actions increase in quantity by successive additions.
And the greater the frequency of repetition, the more impactful.
We all know this.
The more you practice something, the better you get at it, and the greater its impact on you and others.
Practice makes perfect.
But do you fully acknowledge how this impacts your life?

The effects of any mindset we allow to endure become cumulative.
Negative mindsets such as doubt, fear, blame, anxiety, expand beyond their original scope.
Consequently, the longer you allow negativity to persist, the more difficult it becomes to combat.
Negativity is sticky.
It even becomes a habit.
But positivity can also become a habit.
In fact, it is essential that it does.
Conviction, courage, compassion, belief, optimism, gratitude, all blossom when pursued diligently.
Similarly expanding beyond their original scope.
The key is to develop and maintain a regular practice.
And it is a matter of practice.
But you don't have to do it alone.
There are many wise souls who have shared their knowledge, experience and methods.
The useful links page on my website lists a few, including Confucius and The Dalai Lama.
But there are many others.
Reading these and similar philosophies can support your own practice.
You don't have to agree with everything you read.
But simply exploring the underlying message and immersing yourself in positive thought influences your own instinctive behaviour.
And in time, positive thinking becomes your habit. It is the power of suggestion.
“Invest your energy in the right cumulation. Don’t wait for positivity to come to you, seek it out.”
Focus on the light, always,
