I always try myself to have positive thinking no matter whatever thing I come across. Yesterday I went to a shop to have some documents duplicating. I was quite familiar with the owner of the shop. When I walked in the shop I put my documents on the machine. “Don’t put the stuffs on it!” he shouted angrily. I was shocked and going to move away angrily. I tried to cool down and thought might be he was not in a good mood or facing some problems. I then waited and chatted with him in harmony. Lastly I left the shop happy and peacefully but not angrily lol...

i'm a positive girl, but sometimes i will be disppointed and sad when i meet some difficulties at first. and i think it is normal, because i'm a person and not a machine. i have my own feeling, but at last i can overcome any difficulty happened in my life.
do you like a life without any difficulties or with some difficulties? by my heart, i like the latter. if you don't experience the difficulty, then you dont' know how to enjoy what you have now. when you overcome a difficulty, then you must be more confident and satisfied.

Thanks for sharing, that is why we need to think positive. Because we experience a lot of dificulties at times and in those times we have to think about the possitive side. As you have said without them you would not know how to enjoy what you have in better times. Have a great day

I'm married, and have a small child. I try my best to think positive about most things, especially in stressful situations. I've been through many stressful times with my family, and i've tried my best to keep in high spirits just to keep my family safe. In times of dire concequences you need to keep your cool especially so that loved ones don't get hurt, but in the long run its a great quality to have. I love people that just have a happy feel about things when there's trouble it just makes them calmer and more easy going. So i'd have to say I try to stay positve as I can be, whenever my family is involved.

i agree with you, i never used to be a positive thinker, but i made a conscious effort to change. I took a while, but i started to become more aware of when i was having negative thoughts and then changed them in to positive ones, as time has gone by, positive thinking and a positive outlook has become habit. I am genuinly a lot happier and good things happen to me all the time. this is not say that bad things never happen, they do, my car broke down today and i dont have the money to buy a new one, but i am not going to get all depressed about it as i know something will sort its self out - it always does, plus lots of good stuff has happened today too som i will just focus on that!

To be honest I am a pessimist! I actually find it very hard to be positive, because of the circumstance I was in, thankfully now I have made a big change and I am starting my life again, I will start programming myself with positive thoughts instead of negative.

I am overall a very positive person and like you, I believe my thoughts create things. I believe that if you spend your thought energy thinking about the bad things that have happened to you, you will only attract more of those things. You can't ignore them completely, and it wouldn't be healthy to do so, but I won't give them any more energy that I have to in order to just deal with them and then move on. It's more important to spend your thought energy on the things you want, not the things you don't want.

I am the opposite. I am a pessimist. When good things happen, I am usually surprised.

I have major depression and I use to be negative all the time and it got on my sisters nerves. I never could understand how it bothered her so much. Now, that I am a positive thinker, it bugs me to know end when someone around me is saying negative things.
I understand what they mean now when they say that if you don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all.

I try to Perry2007, but it is hard when those around you are talking very negatively, it gets me down sometimes.

Hi Perry, my name sake. Anything is habit forming. No doubt positive thinking is one thing people must make a habit of. I would encourage everyone remain positive in any situation. Always see that any situation, whether good or bad, is an opportunity to learn, to improve, to share....take care, Perry

Hi Perry2007 :)
I have a positive attitude. It's not really that hard for me to be like that because I'm lucky to be surrounded by positive persons like my husband and my mom :)
