How do you maintain a positive attitude in your everyday life?

Answer 1

I like to remind myself that each day is a new day with its own surprises & challenges to be met, and that if I can learn 1 new thing, the day will not have been wasted!

Answer 2

You can't always maintain a positive attitude everyday, you've got to have a least some rainy days. The best way is to leave yourself some space to think things over and tackle your problems. When your problem free, your worry free and you'll constantly become happier, optimistic and positive!

Answer 3

Every morning and every night you say out loud everything you are happy and grateful for. It could be people, a book, your clothes, the roof over your head, your job, anything. Even if you want different things, be happy and grateful for the things you had.

Wear an elastic band on your wrist, and everytime you have a negative thought, snap it, like "snap out of it!!" and be positive.

Have faith that God will lead you through anything, no matter how big or small the obstacle. Look in the mirror and tell yourself that you deserve all of the best that life has to offer.

Smile -- smiles are contagious. If you smile at people they will smile back. Plus it will just make you feel good.

Answer 4

I thank God for every day he's given me on this earth. For my family and friends. Some days I wake up in pain or may be feeling down because of all the work that needs to be done, but then I think of the people in third world countries who don't have anything and realize how lucky I am to be alive and having been born in the USA. That's enough to make me smile. :-)

Answer 5

Try to see every upcoming problem, event, situation in a positive way. At first it won't be easy but if you persevere and continue to be optimist, don't get negative thoughts, it'll become a habit by itself.

Answer 6

I just tell myself that being negative will further mess everything up.
