Pygmalion was a gifted young man who sculpturing. He is really good at sculpture. Hand carved works really bagus.Tetapi not his skill that made him known and loved friends and neighbors. Pygmalion is known as a man who likes to think positive. He is looking at everything from a good angle.
If the muddy field in the middle of town, people mengomel.Tetapi Pygmalion said, "Fortunately, another field sebecek not this."
When there is a statue buyer insists on offering bargain, Pygmalion comrades whispered, "Pinchpenny right man." But Pygmalion said, "Maybe that person needs to spend money for other more necessary things."
When the kids stealing apples dikebunnya, Pygmalion not swear. He even felt sorry for him, "Poor thing, the kids get less education and adequate food at home."
That pattern of view of Pygmalion. He did not see a situation from bad terms, but rather in terms of good. He never think badly about others, on the contrary, he tried to imagine the good things behind the bad deeds of others.
On a day Pygmalion carve a wooden statue of a woman who is very smooth. Human-sized statue was real. When it was finished, the sculpture looked like a human right. The statue's face smiled sweetly charming, attractive beautiful body. Pygmalion friends say, "Ah, good, good as a statue, it's just a statue, not your wife." But Pygmalion's statue as a human being treated well. Again and again staring and dielusnya statue. The gods on Mount Olympus who have noticed and appreciate the attitude of Pygmalion, and then they decided to give grace to Pygmalion, namely changing the statue was to be human right. That is, Pygmalion lived happily with his wife allegedly was the most beautiful woman in the entire country of Greece.
Pygmalion's name is remembered till today to portray the positive impact of thinking patterns. If we think positively about a situation or person, often the result actually be positive.
For example,
* If we behave kindly toward someone, then the men behind will be friendly towards us.
* If we treat our children as a bright child, he finally really be smart.
* If we believe that our efforts will succeed, the effort can be enormous possibilities is half the success.
The impact of positive thinking pattern that is called Pygmalion effect. Our minds are indeed often has the effect or fulfilling prophecy Prophecy fulfilled, whether positive or negative. If we consider our neighbors bitchy so we do not want to hang out with him, then finally he really became bitchy.
If we suspect, and assume our children are not honest, he was finally really being dishonest.
If we were desperate and could not bear at the beginning of a business, very big chance we will actually fail.
Pygmalion mindset is to think, think and hope is only good on a situation or person. Imagine, how big impact when we are such a positive mindset. We will not prejudice about other people. We are not gossiping bad rumors about others.
We do not speculate about the evil of others.
If we think badly about others, there was a material to predict bad things. If a friend gives a gift to us, obviously it is a good deed. But if we think are bad, we would be suspicious, "Perhaps he is trying to persuade," or we grumbled, "Ah, the prize was just cheap goods." That loss of such a mindset is ourselves sendiri.Kita become suspicious. We become unhappy. Conversely, if we think positively, we will enjoy a gift with a sense of joy and gratitude, "He was so generous. While he was busy, he remembered to give to us."
Color life does depend on the colors we wear glasses
If we wear the gray glass eyes, everything will look ashen. Life becomes gray and dreary. But if we wear a bright green eyes, everything will look brighter. Glass eyes are prejudiced or hate it will make our life full of mistrust and a peaceful dendam.Tetapi glasses will make our lives peaceful.
Life would be good if we look at it in terms of good. Think good about yourself. Thinking well of others. Think well about the situation. Think well about the Lord.
Impact of good thinking that way we will feel. The family is warm. Be a trustworthy friend. Neighbors have become familiar. Work becomes fun. The world became friendly. Life is so beautiful. Like Pygmalion, so to speak.
