A saint, her holiness (Mrs) Anjali Gadgil, however, has her perspective on these thinking. She said “Negative thoughts tend to adversely affect the mind pervasively. There is no joy in life unless the mind is healthy. In other words, negative thinking takes away the joy of life. It makes the mind feeble, and this results at the end of optimism in life, thus making one’s life unhappy and purposeless.”
