positive thinking

[Max8]

what's most effective practice to develop positive thinking ? 

and is positive thinking worth it or it's just feel good emotions?

I've had this book recommended for positive self-talk. It's not merely "positive" in the sense of optimistic, but also supportive and constructive:

What to Say When You Talk to Your Self by Shad Helmstetter

 

Quote

 

We talk to ourselves all of the time, usually without realizing it. And most of what we tell ourselves is negative, counterproductive, and damaging, preventing us from enjoying a fulfilled and successful life. But with Shad Helmsetter’s Five Levels of Self-Talk (Negative Acceptance, Recognition and Need to Change, Decision to Change, The Better You, and Universal Affirmation), you can take back control of your life via this accessible yet profound technique

Positive thinking + actually feeling the good feeling.

[Aaron p]

When your bored instead of letting your mind wonder randomly let your mind fantasise and visualise about a future image of yourself as how you want you want to be in the future. If you can make it a reoccurring habit it can heavily influence your subconscious and you can start attracting it. Also it may not feel like it does anything but every choice you make to think a certain thought or to re-theme or re-orient things in a positive light does have an effect deep in your mind each time
