Developing A Positive Mindset For Life

Having a positive attitude is important for lots of reasons. A few of the most important ones are that being positive can benefit a person’s physical health, mental health and others health by being available to help and encourage others.

Joyce Meyer once said, “A positive attitude gives you power over your circumstances instead of your circumstances having power over you”. Throughout times people have proven that positive thinking will help resolve a conflict. It is good to remain positive to eventually receive a good outcome. When a conflict arises the best way to deal with it is to keep a positive attitude. Many argue that a fight will quickly end a problem but problem but a good example that that is false is the story of Black Ships before Troy.In black ships before Troy they use war to solve their problems.people think that it won't really matter what attitude is presented in a problem. Many would argue that the one side of the argument doesn't care about the attitude about the other person/side..

The best way to go in positive thinking is to just stay positive and work for your goal. If I would have just sat there at my desk just looking at it hoping something will happen, that could never happen because I had to act on my goal and stay positive. Staying positive and acting on your goal is the best solution instead of being a “realist” like Barbara Ehrenreich who just thinks in the realism side of positive thinking and can’t see the fact that its okay to have some optimism in anything you do, but not in the way The Secret portrays positive thinking just hoping and hoping for something to

It is not mentally not looking at circumstances with eyes that see only what you want to see”. In other words using Positive Self-Talk shows us the truth on real situations. For example: you were trying out for the school volleyball team and you messed up on bumping the ball, when the negative thoughts occur that is when the positive self talk will take place “ok I’m now going to focus on what I need to complete in order to make it on the team.” There is a way in which you can develop a positive self talk habit, there are 3 steps and the first one is “Mantra”, choose a mantra and find a positive self talk for example; “I feel strong”. This positive self talk will encourage you to feel motivated.

Having positive attitude means thinking in a positive way only and not let the negative ones keep you down from something in your life.

They had to get rid of all negative thinking that came to mind, like, they won’t be able to go through the exercises without failing to complete one. If they wanted to pass the military training they had to set their minds saying they can do it, they will pass everything, they will accomplish everything that was set for them to do. For those college students that struggle in their classes with the work they have, they should turn the negative into the positive.

I do think that having a positive mindset will for sure help you succeed, I just don’t think that it’s impossible to succeed without a positive attitude.

Every day as soon as I put my feet on the floor I recite my gratitude’s. I recite “I am truly grateful for _______ because______” finishing with a thank you.

It makes me feel appreciate it for the little things I have.

Since the day that I have learned to appreciate things and look at everything in a positive manner, I have been happier, developed more friendships, and have been more productive.

They generally neglect the things that they have which makes them look at things negatively. This train of thought will weaken your mind, health, and emotion. These three factors are the sole contributors of making life easier by being thankful.
