As a manager and trainer I have used this positive thinking technique as a way to motivate employees. It has been really successful and has created a motivational positive environment at work. I’ve taken motivation techniques from the world of NLP and performance coaching and developed put together this one easy technique, so here’s how it works. When we perceive any situation and form an opinion we do it through our mental filters. We use past experiences, our beliefs, and true or false evidence to form our version of the situation on the internal map of reality that we create in our mind. It is these internal filters that influence what we look for in a situation. This positive thinking motivation technique works by re-training those filters to find what’s good in a situation rather than focusing on the negative impact the situation could have on us.

In any situation, personal or career related, ask yourself what’s good about it? Even in the worst crisis or disaster ask yourself what’s good about this situation. Your mind will look for the answers within the parameters that you have set in the question. You will mentally filter the incoming information and find what could be potentially positive. Yes I know it’s difficult when everything around you is going wrong, and there are negatives. I’m not saying there won’t be. But focusing on the negatives is focusing on the problem and you won’t find a solution by doing that. Once you have found the positives you can then set new questions and find the dangers or negatives if you need to. Taking control of these mental processes leads to constant self improvement and motivation. Asking what’s good about any situation gives you the opportunity to find positives where others see only negatives.

People in competitive roles, such as sales or management, will have a great advantage over colleagues and competitors because they will be seeing opportunity where others only see negatives and obstacles. Asking yourself what’s good in all situations is a really effective motivation technique that can have fantastic financial and personal benefits. If you mange people can you imagine your staff using this motivation technique. Instead of the usual moaning and whining and looking on the dark side of everything, they will look for how they can benefit from the situation. Instead of blaming the company, the customer, or you, they will let others lose motivation and look for how they can benefit. Then think how this makes you look compared to colleagues.

It’s not easy to suddenly change and see the positive potential in all situations. You are literally re-training your mind to focus in a new direction. After manually focusing your perception you find that this process becomes automatic. At first it is uncomfortable and you slip back into old habits. Then you use positive thinking a few times without any effort and hear yourself stating the potential positives in positions where you would have only seen the negatives in the past. You then become unconsciously competent and you have acquired a new skill of positive thinking.
