If nothing is going right - go left!
I love this saying! If you start your week off and nothing seems to be going right, stop, take a breath and turn your frustrated feelings around. Instead of focusing on what has gone wrong, look for the small things that have gone right, or focus on what the experience has taught you. Living a positive life means you have to actively work at it, it takes practise and constant reminders to yourself, but I can guarantee it is worth it! Your life starts to feel less stressed, more people want to engage with you because in my experience the majority of people enjoy being around positive people almost hoping that some of their positivity will rub off.
Think about your own experiences, if you come across a negative person how do you feel after interacting with them? Most people would answer that they feel slightly depressed, drained and less optimistic in whatever they are doing. The way to counteract this is to continue looking for the positives in each day, don't let negativity rob you of finding ways to enjoy every day!
Living your life positively doesn't mean you have to go around sprouting rainbows and unicorns! Positive people also experience negative thoughts, actions and experiences however they make the choice not to pass it on or share it around. We live in a world where it seems society has gotten into the habit of looking for and focussing on negatives, I get sad to see increasingly larger numbers of our children and youth also focusing on negatives, we need to try and counteract this, giving kids the ability to look at life positively helps them to remain resilient in this very complex world that we live in.
Make to choice today to start living you life in a more positive way!
