How do you maintain a positive attitude at home, work, and with your social life?
Are you attracted to people with a positive attitude? What do you notice about people that are this way? How do I get one?

I believe that we create our own happiness within us. Much along the same lines as the Buddhists do. I learn about myself and actively change myself which in turn changes the people and the environment around me to perpetuate a positive attitude/life. I do not absorb the stress of others, even if someone tells me that something I have done has caused some disruption for them. I may avoid doing what ever it was in the future but it is up to them how they internalize it. Because we all make choices every time we act, react, speak, or don't speak...whatever we do, it is ultimately our choice how to feel about something. I can make the choice to either be mad about something, or to accept it as it is and change my view to put it in a positive light.
Hope this helps you.

Ok, this may be a little out there but here it is and it is what I truely believe.
Everyone emits energy, it's either positive or negative and unless we make a concious effort not to we will absorb some energy from everyone that crosses our path and our energy will take on the characteristics of their energy. So if we choose to not accept the negative energy and only let the positive in we ourselves will emit more positive energy and become more positive people.
Did that make any sense at all ?????
Picture everyone in the world having a fine mist spray bottle and in that bottle is all the energy they have absorbed from other people. The positive energy is clear like water and the negative energy is black and everytime you come in contact with someone they will spray you unless you tell them not to. It's really that simple, just ask your higher power (whoever that is for you) to block you from the "black mist" and come up with your own way to visualize it. Picture yourself saying no to the people with the black bottle or see yourself in a suit of armor or in a bubble or whatever it will take to keep that thought at the front of your mind that you will not accept the negative energy of those around you.
And don't be too hard on yourself, everyone's bottle gets gray from time to time it's easy enough to clear it up again.
Oh, and here's a little tip for when you come across someone who is making you angry. Just take a breath and say to yourself "At least I don't have to go home with this person"
