How You Can Develop A Positive Attitude?

Tweet

Saying it's important to have a positive attitude is one thing. Practicing it is another challenge. A lot of people will say: "I have a positive attitude, I know things will get better." That's not good enough. Having a positive attitude requires knowing that things are already better. To start doing this I suggest you first look at your life or your current situation. Then list all of the things you don't like about the current situation. Next list all the things that need to change. The two lists may be similar and that's okay. Then list all of the things that are going well. Here's where I usually hear somebody say: "Karim, I have nothing to list - there's nothing that I like about my current situation. There's nothing that's going well for me." Take a closer look - the fact that you're alive is positive. The fact that you're able to think and write is positive. These may seem trivial - but the ability to look at and focus on the good things that are going on in your life is the basis and foundation of a positive attitude. It's all in how you see things and how you choose to react.
