The Benefits of a Positive Attitude

I have already mentioned many of the benefits of adopting a positive attitude and the importance of developing it. However, a little repetition would make things even clearer.
  • It helps you achieve goals and attain success.
  • It can bring more joy into your life.
  • It makes you a pleasant person to be with, and makes it easier to be liked and gain friends.
  • It produces more energy, enthusiasm, interest, and even curiosity, making life more interesting.
  • Positive attitude increases your confidence in your abilities, and brings hope and expectation of a brighter future.
  • It enhances your motivation when carrying out tasks and working on goals, and you are also able to inspire and motivate others.
  • Obstacles and difficulties do not spoil your happiness and optimism. You do not focus on them, you focus on solutions.
  • One's attitude is contagious and affects other people. When it is good and pleasant, people will like you and want your company.
  • When you feel good and happy, and expect good things to happen, life smiles at you.

Negative attitude says: you cannot achieve success.
Positive attitude says: You can achieve success.
If you have been exhibiting a negative attitude and expecting failure and difficulties, it is now the time to change the way you think. It is now the time to get rid of negative thoughts and behavior, and start leading a happy life with optimism, energy and zest. If you tried to do so in the past and failed, it only means that you have not tried enough and should try again.
If your mind whispers to you that you cannot change, do not listen to it. Change will not happen overnight, but with a little perseverance it will happen.

Simple Tips for Developing a Positive Attitude:

  1. Choose to be happy. Yes, it is a matter of choice. When negative thoughts enter your mind, just refuse to look at them and think them. Do your best to substitute them with happy thoughts.
  2. Look at the bright side of life. It's a matter of choice and repeated attempts. No matter how tough a situation is, there is always some good in it, some insight and lessons to learn.
  3. Choose to be optimistic. Choose to believe that things would change for the better.
  4. Find reasons to smile more often. You can find such reasons, if you look around you. There are funny events, funny incidents, pleasant events and small daily accomplishments. All of them are reasons for a smile.
  5. Have faith in yourself, and believe that the Universe can help you. A strong belief in yourself and in your ability to cope with every situation, fosters a positive attitude in you.
  6. Associate yourself with happy people, since happiness is contagious.
  7. Read inspiring stories about inspiring, happy or successful people. Do not envy them or be jealous of them. Just learn from their stories, and let them inspire and motivate you to do similar things.
  8. Read inspiring quotes. You can find such quotes on the Internet and at our quotes directory. I suggest you read a few in the morning, before going to work, and at night, before you go to sleep.
  9. Repeat affirmations to inspire and motivate you.
  10. Visualize only what you want to happen in your life, and avoid thinking and visualizing what you do not want.
  11. Learn to develop a focused mind and master your thoughts. When you can focus, you can direct your attention more easily to thoughts that you choose, and avoid negative thoughts.
Following even only one of the above suggestions, will bring more happiness and joy into your life.

THE RIGHTEOUS SHALL REJOICE (Ps.64:1-10)

THE RIGHTEOUS SHALL REJOICE (Ps.64:1-10)   Hear me, O God, as I voice my complaint; protect my life from the threat of the enemy.  Hide me from the conspiracy of the wicked, from that noisy crowd of evildoers.  They sharpen their tongues like swords and aim their words like deadly arrows. They shoot from ambush at the innocent man; they shoot at him suddenly, without fear. They encourage each other in evil plans, they talk about hiding their snares; they say, “Who will see them?"  They plot injustice and say, "We have devised a perfect plan!" Surely the mind and heart of man are cunning. But God will shoot them with arrows; suddenly they will be struck down. He will turn their own tongues against them and bring them to ruin; all who see them will shake their heads in scorn. All mankind will fear; they will proclaim the works of God and ponder what he has done. Let the righteous rejoice in the Lord and take refuge in him; let all the upright in heart praise him! ...
