I really like what Trent does with his site The Simple Dollar. He reviewed a book by the infamous Dale Carnegie titled How to Stop Worrying and Start Living. What I like is this section which is the same stuff I read from the “Secret” book. I took the liberty of copying it here because I thought the message was excellent!

Part Four: Seven Ways To Cultivate A Mental Attitude That Will Bring You Peace and Happiness

Meditation Spend some time filling your mind with thoughts of peace. Find a meditative technique that works for you and practice it.

Don’t worry about enemies Instead of thinking about people you don’t like, spend some time thinking about people that you do like.

Forget about ingratitude If someone else isn’t grateful for your help, don’t worry about it in the least. It’s a reflection on them, not you, so don’t concern yourself with it.

Count your blessings Think of all the good things you have in life.

Don’t imitate others Find your own path. Imitation leads directly to jealousy.

Look for positives in the negative If something bad happens, try to find the positives in it.

Be nice to others Even if you’re unhappy, positive actions and attitudes towards others might make others less unhappy.
