Star Wars the POSITIVE Effect !


In many ways the Star War movies are simply a reflection of everyday life on planet Earth.

Battles with inner conflict, jealousy, love, hate, passion, desire, laughter, drama, action, achieving goals, villains, friendship, success and failure.

Although we watch these movies for escapism, they also teach us about ourselves and the world around us.

I'm not suggesting that George Lucas is our extreme life or spiritual teacher but he has managed to get all the elements of life rolled into his movies.

We all aspire to be happier but it's not always as simply as smiling and our problems disappear, life is full of constant challenges and changing events.

It's how we face up to our daily life challenges that will eventually determine our happiness or lack of it.

Face every challenge the best you can with a positive mental attitude, not always easy, I agree, however, you are the only one who determines your attitude, be it Positive or Negative.

People and circumstances around you will be trying to influence how you feel BUT ONLY YOU DECIDE HOW YOU THINK!

So the next alien invasion or Darth Vader you run into, just remember, your Thinking is in your hands, so think with a positive attitude and even if you don't win this battle, you'll end up winning the war and live a happier life?may the force be with you!!!!
