In \u2019n onlangse praatjie kon die bekende predikant en motiveringspreker Liesel Krause-Wiid nie genoeg klem l\u00ea op hoe belangrik dit is om jou denke te verander nie. Om positief te dink, asook om jou brein te oefen om op die goeie te konsentreer, is veral nou belangrik vir elkeen van ons. Volgens Wiid neig die brein om negatiewe denke te koester en, soos \u2019n plaat wat vashaak, dit oor en oor te speel. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Haar raad is om daagliks jou brein te oefen om positief te dink, soos jy in die gimnasium oefen om jou liggaam gesond en sterk te hou. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Mag Lessing se positiwiteit aansteeklik wees vir alle boere in die landboubedryf, en mag hulle daarin slaag om steun van ho\u00ebr vlakke soos die regering te ontvang. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Positiwiteit is aansteeklik, so kom ons fokus daarop en maak \u2019n verskil.
