Stay Positive and Think Positively

Your ability to stay positive and maintain positive thoughts determines the tone of your emotional life.

The words you use to describe what is happening to you, and to discuss how you feel about external events, trigger the emotions of happiness or unhappiness you experience.

When you see things positively and constructively and look for the good in each situation and each person, you have a tendency to remain naturally cheerful and optimistic.

Since the quality of your overall life is determined by how you feel, moment-to-moment, one of your most important goals should be to use positive affirmations and all psychological positive thinking techniques available to keep yourself thinking and talking about what you want and to keep your mind off of what you don’t want, or what you fear.

The hallmark of the fully mature and self-actualizing personality is the ability to be objective and unemotional when caught up in the inevitable storms of life and to stay positive and have daily positive thoughts.

The superior person has the ability to continue talking to himself or herself in a positive and optimistic way, keeping his or her mind calm, clear and completely under control.

The advanced personality is more relaxed and aware and capable of interpreting events more realistically maintaining positive thoughts contrary to the immature personality. As a result, the mature person exerts a far greater sense of control and influence over his or her environment, and is far less likely to be angry, or upset or distracted.

Remember that it’s impossible to learn and grow and become a success without the inevitable adversities and difficulties you must contend with and rise above in order to become a better person.

So, welcome each difficulty by saying, “That’s good!” and then look into the situation to find the something good or beneficial that it contains in order to stay positive.
