Positivity is Key

"Don’t let your happenings determine your happiness...Happiness and destiny are things we create, not positions of circumstance."

The key to gaining confidence, feeling good about yourself or the aim to achieve anything is positivity. You cannot progress in life if you continue to have a negative attitude.

The problem is that if you are a very negative person you cannot overcome your negativity overnight. It takes quite a bit of work and time to overcome and turn your life around.

All of the self made millionaires, inventors and business moguls have reached their goals through being positive.

Although statistics tell us that a high percentage of self made millionaires have been made bankrupt at least once and lost everything before they made their fortunes, the key is that they did not give up.

Due to the materialistic age we live in, we tend to overlook the natural things in life and all we have to be grateful for. Just by taking a minute to look around and assessing all that is free and what we could not live without is amazing in itself. The air that we breathe, the trees, the flowers, the grass are all things we take for granted.

For just a few minutes a day if you concentrate on six of the things that you are grateful for, given to us by nature, you will start to become less negative. It is impossible to express gratitude and be negative at the same time, so this is your beginning.

When you analyze all that is good in the world, then read about the sickness and famine, your problems are put into perspective and become trivial.

You can liken a positive attitude to a bright summers day where people are laughing and are happy. The negative attitude is a dull, dreary, damp day where people are miserable and unhappy. Which do you prefer?

You have a choice, so take the positive option and improve your life immeasurably. (Article Mark R James)
