how about a week of magical thinking....
Psychologists call it “magical thinking,” the trick of convincing ourselves that our thoughts has the power to control external events.
Now the idea of magical thinking may be nonsensical to some , positive thinking is not. Research proves that optimism, even when it has a shaky foundation in reality, helps people triumph over adversity...

I'm in! It is a fact that our state of mind changes the way that we act, and therefore the way that other people react to us. Magical thought is the way forward :)

Be it magical, positive, or just plain ignorance, I love the fact that I have the god given talent of being purely, blissfully oblivious to reality at sometimes, and just skip along my merry way.....I believe I am an optimist!
Nice thread....

I belive it. I know a couple of people who are blissfully confident that everything will work out and it always does against all odds. I need to learn to do this more myself without worrying about the risks and just staying positive. It really does bring the good and fends off the eeeevil!

Words that I needed to hear!! I know that when I'm pessimistic about life/things, it tends to play out that way! Perhaps its time to turn the tables and try and think more positively/optomistically? Thank you!! :)
Cheers!

I believe this theory. I think we all have the "powers" within our own beings to create our own "fate"

I agree! Ever since I started visualizing my dreams and thinking positively, picturing myself as the person I wanted to become, I've achieved, well, most of those goals I had! How about a lifetime of magical thinking!? :)
