Acting Quote by David Bohm

“If you engage in positive thinking to overcome negative thoughts,…” quote by David Bohm — Download Open image

“If you engage in positive thinking to overcome negative thoughts, the negative thoughts are still there acting. That's still incoherence. It's not enough just to engage in positive thoughts when you have negative thoughts registered, because they keep on working and will cause trouble somewhere else.”
