What if you're on the way to the docs to get the results of a test ? Do you still think positively ?

yes because if it's good news that's great, and if it's bad news the sooner you know the more chance you have of getting whatever it is sorted.

I think there's a biological and a psychological part to it.
I think it's entirely feasible that positive thought can give some biological boost to the immune system - the precise nature of which may not be currently known in full.
And you can get a psychological lift from positive thinking, for instance, in poker you may be more confident of making a move when you're thinking positively - and because you're more confident you will be more likely to succeed.
And there are probably some things which are a mixture of both, like pain management for example.
All in all positive thinking >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> negative thinking
Although I'm not going to risk trying it, because I'd probably fail.

You can make yourself ill with worry (usually the digestive system is the first one to feel the effects), so why shouldn't positive thinking at least work to prevent that? So by not inducing bad effects, it's therefore a beneficial thing.
Good thread Dewi.

I'm a beleiver too. This morning before getting up I meditated on getting a phone call today from a good friend. Snatty rings me instantly. I then meditate on having a calm day with no cockups. So far I've run out of inco pads, 1 client leaked and 1 cancelled. Perhaps if I hadn't meditated on it, it would have been worse....

So to stay positive you are thinking that if shit happens you just get on with it and deal with it the best you can ? Sandy

Perhaps if you hadn't wasted your time meditating, you would have had time to purchase more inco pads, and reduced the chances of leakage and / or cancellations. (Probably. In fact I'm not really sure what inco pads are - could be those blue inky sheets that give you a duplicate receipt for all I know).

No point being positive about checking a past result, if you want to win, be positive for this weeks lottery!

What do people think about this?
Can you heal yourself with positive thought? Can you win a poker competition based on belief that you will win? Can you affect your day by thinking positively?
zomg yes
