THE POWER OF A POSITIVE ATTITUDE Where Are You? NEGATIVE ~ REALISTIC ~ POSITIVE

8

Iam going to ask you to do something very weird right now. First of all, I want you to listen to your thoughts. Now
tell me, what thoughts fill your head? Would you label them as positive or negative? Now let’ s say you are walking down the
street with these thoughts. Do you think anyone who would meet you would be able to tell you what’ s on your mind? The answer to number one is up to you. But, the answer to number two can be pretty generic. Although people will not be able to tell you exactly what you are thinking, they will more or less have an idea of how you are feeling. Here’ s another question. When you enter a party filled with friends, do they all fall silent as if something terrible has happened? Or does everyone perk up as if waiting for something exciting to happen? You know what? The answer to all of these depends on your
frame of mind. Thoughts are very powerful. They affect your general attitude. The attitude you carry reflects on your appearance too, unless, of course, you are a great actor. And it doesn’ t end there. Your attitude can also affect people around you. The type of attitude you carry depends on you. It can be either positive or negative.

If a positive attitude is really great, why do people choose to adopt a negative attitude instead?

One who carries a negative attitude may be actually sending a signal for attention. Before you get me wrong, feeling sad, angry, or gloomy is not wrong, but dwelling on these thoughts for too long is not healthy either. As always, if you are beset by troubles, even in your darkest hour, focus on the good things in life and you will always have hope. Problems become something you can overcome. You do not have much to lose by adopting a healthy, positive attitude. Studies show that such an attitude actually retards the aging process, makes you healthier, helps you develop a better stress coping mechanism, and a very positive effect on all the people you meet everyday. So, what’ s not to like about a positive attitude? Adopt one today!
