You're welcome @bhokor , I agree with you on the massive campaign. I think Positive thinking has some value. The Buddha actually taught this technique but he described "negative" thoughts as "unwholesome" and "positive" as wholesome. He said if we're going to think overtly then think with wholesome ideas. I practice letting go of unwholesome ideas and thinking on wholesome ones instead. The effect is the negative thoughts over time will dissipate and quiet down and the positive ones will rise and be more active. I have even learned through this process (12 years so far) to enjoy the rain as well as the sunshine. :)
