no man, i have started to do yoga, deep breathing, meditation, exercise, and healthy eating, and the results have begun paying off immediately. i am feeling more and more positive thoughts every hr and fewer and fewer negative thoughts. people around me still say things that i disagree with and that i view as kinda narrow minded at times but it is not affecting me the way it usually does, in fact it is not affecting me negatively at all, this is amazing, it truly is

i've known for a long time that a combination of these activities and lifestyle changes would help a person's attitude a lot but did not decide to actually do something about it until recently when my negativity hit an all time high, i knew i needed a change because it was affecting my healthy in a very very bad way

It works.. Stay positive all the time and Believe..
Faith is the Ultimate Power. If you believe in something, you'll increase your chance to realize it.
Your goal is to reach 20k? BELIEVE IT! Realize it in your head, write it down.
You'll see that it happens..
Law of attraction.. It works..

I'm all for positivity and having a good attitude but doing it just for its own sake despite what life throws are you just seems like it's going to fail to me (also a bit cultish). It's much healthier to have a range of emotions. If your life sucks improving it will also improve the feelings of positivity so heading in that direction instead of faking it is the way to go.
+1 for the Healthy Eating/Exercise and Yoga. I like to call Yoga stretching though as I really hate the word to begin. It seemed that all the people I had met that expounded relentlessly about YOGA were braindead yuppie oprah watching muppets (not saying that you are one hoopster42). Once i started doing it though I really enjoyed it and felt better physically. Of course I have to ignore the nonsense babble about connecting with the earth and concentrate on the physical parts/breathing to maximize my enjoyment/benefits.
The Secret is just a load of easy answers that aren't based in reality. The charlatans preaching it seem to be the ones raking it in though.

A combination of things lately pushed me to join a gym. One of those things was a push from your thread. Encouraging, thanks Hula-Hoopster four-two. Keeping in mind the breathing and positive attitude. GL to you.

yoga IS stretching and holding, as you know. it releases toxins from the muscles, and those same toxins if they stay in the body, cause disease. just stretching alone is very healthy and makes you feel good. yoga takes stretching to a new level. i know all the yuppies started doing it, but it's more a function of eastern world health meets western world. dont hate it cause so many fake ppl are doing it. fake ppl eat lotsa fruits and veggies too 'cause they wana live long and spend all their money, so dont hate 'eating right' too

Hoopster glad it is working. I for one can say you sound like a completely changed person. Good luck with your mental and physical goals. There's nothing wrong with wanting to better yourself. It's harder for some than others.
