Words that Make Your Brain Happy !
A life of success and achievement is a direct result of utilizing the power of positive thinking. The most important asset you have in order to feel good about yourself and life is the way you talk to yourself.
Your thoughts and word that go through your head or words you says to others about yourself affect you in ways you never thought possible. The truth is, whether you know it or not, your thoughts are responsible for whatever place or situation you are in right now.
Nobody would argue that electricity exists. You can’t touch, smell, hear or see it, but its effects and power are evident everywhere you look.
In the same way, your thoughts are energy. Your thoughts drive your life just as electricity drives a motor. That is the power there is in having a positive mental attitude. Choose positive thinking and you will enjoy positive energy and positive results.
As far as your brain, every thought releases brain chemicals. Being focused on negative thoughts effectively saps the brain of its positive forcefulness, slows it down, and can go as far as dimming your brain's ability to function, even creating depression. On the flip side, thinking positive, happy, hopeful, optimistic, joyful thoughts decreases cortisol and produces serotonin, which creates a sense of well-being. This helps your brain function at peak capacity.
Happy thoughts and positive thinking, in general, support brain growth, as well as the generation and reinforcement of new synapses, especially in your prefrontal cortex (PFC), which serves as the integration center of all of your brain-mind functions.
Your PFC not only regulates the signals that your neurons transmit to other brain parts and to your body, it allows you to think about and reflect upon what you are physically doing. In particular, it allows you to control your emotional responses and gives you the ability to focus on whatever you choose and to gain insight about your thinking processes. This helps you to control your emotions, behaviors and help you focus on whatever goals you elect to pursue. It helps you grow as a human being, change what you wish to change, and live life the way you decide!

Positive thinking starts with your thoughts and your personal self-talk. These are the endless words and thoughts that you say to yourself throughout the day. These thoughts and words seem automatic. Some come from applying logic and reason, while others come from your perceptions, judgements, and interpretations based on the information you have.
The controversy about affirmations and their real power was concluded by the fact that statements you repeat to yourself would reach a point where they penetrate your subconscious mind - which then acts on those affirmations by creating situations that mirror those affirmations. The more often you say your affirmations, the more you support them with positive actions and positive thinking and the sooner you'll begin to believe them and see substantial changes in your mood.
At times it may seem like the affirmations are boring or that you're just saying them and they're not having any impact. This is a crossing point. You're going from initial excitement that comes with saying the new affirmations to having them penetrate your subconscious - this is when you need to continue saying them the most - because your subconscious is ready to act on them. So so never give up!
Track your results - see if there have been improvements in certain areas of your life for which you've been saying affirmations. Even small improvements are positive signs.
Affirmations should be short and simple - and reflect what you want to happen. Here is a a good series of affirmations, choose the ones you like and start practicing daily to improve your mood and attitude:
Today, I will act out of love
I choose to graciously extend kindness to everyone I meet
I will do my absolute best.
I freely express gratitude for the many blessings I receive.
I will speak kindly to and of others.
I choose to see the good in the people I interact with today.
I have the power to control my reactions to the challenges I will face
I choose to see each obstacle as an opportunity to grow
I know what to do to make more money and I'm now doing the right things to make more money.
Each day I take a small step toward achieving my goals.
I am willing to step outside of my comfort zone to accomplish the goals I set for myself and grow
I honor my mission and values by pursuing my goals.

-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Also understand that some affirmations take longer to have an impact. It really depends on where you are and what you want to accomplish. For example: if you're unemployed and want to be a millionaire or be making a large six figure income with your own office - it's going to take some time.
You have to get a job and get into the right place to start making the big money and earn the millions you want. It's not going to happen overnight. So the first step is to focus on getting work that will put you on a track to make that kind of money. It will happen - but it really depends on what you think about yourself where you are and what you want to accomplish. Just remember its all in your head!
