Writing is a powerful tool for installing a Positive Operating System.  After writing five books on positive thinking, I am convinced everyone needs to write their own book on how to have a positive mind.  The reason is simple.  You cannot put positive ideas on paper without first putting them into your mind.  If you write a three hundred page book on positive thinking, you will spend thousands of hours focusing on positive ideas.  For the duration of the writing project, the focus of your mind will be consistently positive.

I wish I had started writing on positive thinking when I was twenty years old.  It would have made a massive difference in my life.  Those positive thoughts would have dominated my mind for the next eighty years.  Even though I got a late start, a late start is better than no start at all.  It’s never too late to write your own book on positive thinking.  Even if you are eighty years old, your life will improve when you write about positive things.

If the thought of writing a book seems like an overwhelming task, you can still use writing to put positive things into your mind.  Take a pen and paper, and start copying words out of positive books that inspire you.  The time you spend copying positive passages will push your mind in a positive direction, and before long you will find you are a different person because a Positive Operating System will start running in your mind.

Write positive words on a post card and send it to someone who needs encouragement.  This puts positive thoughts into two minds, the one who writes it and the one who receives it.  If you want to have a positive impact on hundreds of people, you can send positive emails to everyone you know.  Positive emails are an inexpensive way to send a positive message around the world in just a few seconds.

If you want to transform your life and make the world a better place, write about God’s love.  Teach other people how to max out on his love.  God’s love will expand into your life and into the life of everyone who receives your message.

Writing is an exceptionally powerful tool for putting positive things into your mind, because for the duration of the writing session, your mental focus is consistently positive.  For a few hours, it’s as if there is a positive lock on your mind that prevents the intrusion of negative and depressing thoughts.  The power of positive focus blows a Negative Operating System out of your mind and replaces it with a positive one.  How do you install a Positive Operating System in your mind?  You simply write it there thought by thought.
