How EFT Accelerates Positive Thinking

By: Magnus The concept of 'Positive Thinking' in the self-improvement industry is looked upon sceptically by a lot of people. If you're cynical you would say that just believing in something doesn't make it true and if you're optimistic you'll concede you don't always take the right action necessary.

The reason why positive doesn't always work for people is because the positive thinking is only on the surface while deeper beliefs and thought are still negative. Even one deep seated negative thought is enough to interfere with the positive intentions that you set yourself.

Just thinking positively doesn't get you anywhere though. You need to be taking the right action as well. But when most people need to start taking the right action they find their positive thinking fails them.

The opportunity to take the right action will expose your negative beliefs. Taking action forces you to confront all those negative beliefs and battle against them in order to get things done. Positive thinking is effective when it outweighs the negative thinking or when the negative thinking has been gotten rid of.

If you can totally focus on your goal and your positive thoughts, it is possible to battle through all your negative beliefs. This is how most people live their lives. But it's REALLY hard work! That's because negative beliefs are really negative thoughts attached to negative feelings. So when you push through the belief, you take action that conflicts with the thought, and that brings up the feeling. Working through things like this because incredibly draining, and the negative feelings don't tend to really change, so they are there next time you do the same thing.

Emotional Freedom Technique makes this process much easier. It helps you to get rid of any negative feelings that come up when you want to take action. You keep doing this until taking action feels easier. Those negative emotions and thoughts that came up weren't based on anything in reality, just your beliefs about the situation as presented through that negative filter.

When you take the time to identify all the negative thoughts and feelings that conflict with your Positive Thinking, and Tap them away, holding onto the positive worldview becomes effortless, and taking Positive Action - the real key to success in anything - becomes automatic.
