Positive Thinking

I really appreciate the CEO Executive Club. By having this club and the weekly assignments, it’s making me want to listen to the CD over and over again. Each time I do, I get more and more out of the CD's. I have a gold mind that will better assist me in my everyday life and business life.

This topic was very interesting to me. Listening to Mr. Parker and Mr. Fulton discuss the theory of positive thinking and how it starts with the brain was very enlightening. I was able to see myself in a lot of the discussion on the brain. I’m ambidextrous. I actually write with my left hand and eat with my left hand. I’m also an analytical person and very good with money/budget, which is using the left side of the brain. However, I can also write with my right hand but I lean more to the left. Everything else that I do, I use the right side, whether I’m playing sports, cooking, using a calculator, etc. I have the musical creativity of playing instruments and writing songs. In some areas, I’m stronger with the left side or left hand and for other areas; I’m stronger with the right side or right hand. When playing sports or recreational activities, I use the right hand when others might think I would use the left hand because I’m left handed, but that feels awkward to use the left hand. This sometimes works to my advantage. If you recall in my blog on Personal Awareness, I mentioned that I don’t like to lose. I’m very competitive. When participating in sports, I’ll let the other team think it’s going to be awkward and difficult for me to use the right side… but then they get served with a surprise.

Is this at some level maximizing both sides to work together in unity as was mentioned in the CD?

This CD has me really examining myself and recognizing my negative challenges or behavior. It is some times difficult to admit anything negative about yourself (even if it’s just admitting it to yourself). It’s okay… because after listening to this CD, it will be turned around to have a positive impact on my life.

Moving forward, I’m going to always try to think positive in my personal life and at work. Negativity will not dwell here… As others see this in my life and workplace, I hope this will create and cultivate a positive environment and operation.
