There is a famous quote that says this:
“You can only see in someone else what you see in yourself.”
Alan Cohen
The logic behind this quote on a negative level, is that you would not notice something negative in another, if it did not bother you. The reason it bothers you, is because you perceive it in yourself. Otherwise, you would not recognize the qualities in the first place.
Likewise on a positive level, you see the positive things in others, that you see in yourself first. It is easy to see, since you inhabit the same qualities.
If you are observant enough to see the qualities within yourself, you will begin seeing in others what you’re feeling within yourself too.
What Positive Thinking Really Is
The difference between negative and positive thinking, is that positive thinking always leads you to the qualities of yourself that match closest to who you really are. For example, think back to a moment when you were inspired, passionate, enthused, intuitive, etc and notice how people responded to you in these moments. Your inspiration inspired them, your emotion (energy in motion) moved them. In other words, you began seeing in them what you were feeling and as a result they began feeling your impact.
