Power of Positive Thinking Coupled with Positive Emotion

Without question, our thinking patterns shape our life. But the thoughts that we manifest into reality are the ones with powerful emotion behind them. The book "The Law of Attraction: The Basics of the Teachings of Abraham" (Esther & Jerry Hicks) suggests that instead of trying to monitor every thought we have, we should continually pay close attention to how we're feeling.

They share this wisdom:

"It is helpful, whenever you feel negative emotion, to stop and acknowledge what you were thinking when the negative emotion surfaced. When you feel negative emotion, it is always telling you that whatever you are thinking about is important, and that you are thinking about the opposite of what you really desire....

"Whenever you catch yourself feeling negative emotion, we would suggest that you gently pull your thoughts around to something that you do want to experience, and little by little you will change your habit of thought regarding those things....

"When you give your attention to a subject and feel only positive emotion about it as you do so, it will come very quickly into your experience."
