Negative or Positive Outlook on life - which is the best?

Hi there. Personally I also prefer the positive outlook on life. I try hard not to buy into another persons negativity, no matter who it is, for the simple reason, I dont like it and refuse to take on board. I think once you give it attention, its starts growing on you and naturally it will pull you down. Anyway to buy into negativity would be sooo draining. Stay positive and you have an awsome day too...

that are two points i have,sometimes i have positive polnit as you,and sometimes i have negative polnit as your daughter, i want to have positive in my life,because i don't want think a lot for my life. it is tired for me to have many thought,so i just choose positive because i am a honest person.

hi Meggettie I think both of you are at least partially correct. When we analyse about attitude we have keep in mind about the gen-gap. Life is now much more complicated and today children are less social, more than necessary emotional (pl no controversy, it's my view, not a generalized one).Your postive attitude let you to take chance because you are sure to bear the consequences. But our children are not so much confident (for this parents are to be blamed). So they prefer to keep themselves away from taking a chance. You can say they like to adopt a neutral attitude. But certainly no excessive +ve or -ve attitude are good. A rationally and +vely framed mind is the best.
