Highly Sensitive People/Introverts: Does The Law Of Attraction Work For You?

Post category:Achievement and Success Self Awareness

I’m a big believer in the Law of Attraction. The law of attraction is a simple concept. If you focus on the positive, you’ll attract the positive. If you focus on the negative, you’ll attract the negative.

Highly Sensitive People/Introverts: Are You An Optimist Or A Pessimist?

Post category:Happiness Personal Transformation

It’s a scientifically proven fact that those who see the world in a “glass half full” kind of way live longer and experience less stress.

Highly Sensitive People/Introverts: Can you shift from sorrow to joy?

Post category:Grief Happiness

We’re all periodically visited by joy and sorrow in our lives. What we do with these experiences set apart the survivors from those who suffer or hold back. If you’ve never let yourself fully experience sadness, you’re missing one of the great character-building elements in your life. If you’ve never fully embraced joy, you’re missing one of the most potent building blocks to success and true happiness.

Grief is a normal part of life, the same as birth and deaths, but if you dwell too much on the sad times, you’ll never get to experience the joy that life has to offer. Sorrow can turn you into a bitter person and ruin what chances you have at true love and abundance. It can keep you from attracting positive forces that will enhance your life.
