I recently read a masterpiece, a book called “Not without my Daughter”, written by Betty Mahmoody with William Hoffer. It is based on the real life story of Betty and her daughter Mahtob. It showed how she succeeded in returning to the States after being captured by her Iranian husband in Tehran for one and a half years. Betty and Mahtob followed only one tenet that is ‘Where there is a will there is a way!’
From where did they get so much energy? What helped them to keep themselves so calm and patient? How they kept their hope intact throughout the process?
The answer is Optimism. The word with synonyms like hopefulness, cheerfulness, confidence, brightness etc. Its meaning itself evokes a positive energy in the minds of individuals. Optimism is the temperament or tendency of believing that any activity will result into the most favorable condition. It is a belief which states that goodness ultimately predominates over the evil in the world.
“The Secret” written by Rhonda Byrne, explains a much related concept. The positive energy and vibes are attracted by the way of our thinking. Our mind actually shapes the world around us. The more optimism we bring in our thoughts, the chances of gaining success increases. The book also says that we are like a human transmission tower, the more victories we expect, the more we should try to change the frequency of our thoughts.
“Agar kisi cheez ko…Dil se chaaho… Toh puri kaynath tumhe usey milane ki koshish mein lag jaati hai!!”
The above written phrase, a dialogue from one of the Bollywood Blockbusters, has an overwhelming profound meaning. It too explains that if we wish for something honestly and if we keep a positive attitude throughout the process then the entire Universe starts working for us, so that we can achieve it.
Thus, I would like to conclude saying that, adding optimism to our lives will certainly result in our betterment. We should remember that this world is certainly a better place to live in, removing all the cynical thoughts out of our mind and following one of the best mantras for success- Optimism.
