Louise HayWhile holding positive thoughts and emotions is advantageous, positive thinking itself is not "Hallmark Card thinking." It's really an ongoing awareness that all truly is well with the world, with life, and with oneself.

Jack CanfieldI think setting goals is critical; having deadlines for ourselves- how much by when? Too many people have these big dreams where they want to have a big house on the ocean.

A positive expectancy, a positive attitude, a belief that your dream is possible is also helpful.

The positive feelings and emotions that prosperous spending brings is what attracts more positive things in your life.

Hands off.
William JamesI still haven't quite gauged the effects of featuring designers on my blog and on Dazed.

This includes, for example, nuclear energy and genetic food production to provide the world what it urgently needs.
