How Positive Thinking and Negative Thinking Could Go Wrong

Pretty much every people who I met understood the concept of positive thinking wrong. Usually what happens is, they are confronted with a problem, and they will say, “Don’t worry. Everything will be fine”. Afterwards, they said it’s positive thinking. The problem here is, we have a problem in front of us, so how is everything fine? The problem will not magically go away. We have to deal with it. Let’s have another example. Deadline is in one week, and there’s still three week’s worth of work. One of your colleague said, “Don’t worry. We will make it.”. This might sounds ok at first, but it’s actually denying the truth, and it’s giving false hope to the other colleagues.
