I have to admit to a few shortcomings of Jackie’s book. For one, it is written in a very non-descriptive way. Some of the terms used in the book are a bit confusing, like “positively,” “valuing,” “focussed,” and “self-affirming.” It’s a little difficult to follow the basic principles of positive thinking, such as being positive, focusing on your goals, and not dwelling on your problems.
It is true that the book is not very descriptive, but it is very basic. Its a good book for starting out. And as for the terms, I think they might be a little too simple. Jackie talks about positively, valuing, focussed, and self-affirming. Those are terms that I think are a little too much. I found these terms to be too simplistic. I think there are a lot of people out there who have no idea what these words are about.
In our opinion, the words positive, valuing, focussed, and self-affirming describe a lot of what we do in life. But it’s not a list of definitions. It’s more a way to discuss our feelings and outlooks when we’re trying to create a positive and fulfilling life. When I talk about these words, I’m usually referring to something we have done in the past.
We’ve done things like quit smoking, stop watching porn, change our diet (which we call junk food), and many others. We feel valuing ourselves and our relationships. We feel focussed on our future and our goals. We feel self-affirming, and positive towards ourselves.
This is where we veer off into the realms of the subjective and the ideal. We want to feel good and positive, and feel like weve achieved something. We want to feel like its all the people around us that are doing important work and contributing to society that brings about this feeling. We want to feel like its the people around us that are doing important work that makes us feel better.
Jackie has been feeling pretty good lately, and recently got promoted. But he hasn’t felt like his life is really going well until he went to work this week. That’s when he got a new job and his old one suddenly became useless. That’s when he got a new apartment and felt really good. But his new job isn’t making him happy and he can’t say that about his old job.
