Think positive so as not to think negative, and bring forth self-fulfilling prophecies. If you think bad things into coming true, they will come true. If you think positively, you can bring good fortune to yourself just as easily. No method is perfect, but it is better than making yourself miserable.

Think positive, but embrace the negative.
We are human - nothing more. Not superhuman. Our feelings are there to be felt. They make us what we are. Embrace the good and the bad - we can't know one without the other.
Perhaps if we think too hard positively, sometimes, it can feel the end of the world when something negative happens.
Instead of thinking in positive/negative; good/bad terms, recognise that things just happen. Some we have control over, some not. Once a situation faces you, deal with it the very best you can, and know whatever happens, you've done the best you were able to. Be at peace with that.

Negative or positive are states of perception and loaded with all kinds of permutations. The truth is they are subjective states that impact different people in different ways.
A positive person is one who takes a negative and uses it as an opportunity so that it becomes positive. A negative in the wrong persons hands can be an excuse to shut down the possibility for good change that gets us off the coach in search of good pursuits. To buy into this, one should be brought up in a family that believes its concepts are true. It is part of many religions, including those of the East and those of the West.
Christ and his church turned the Crucifixion into
a major tenant of the faith; that the cross brings salvation to the world instead of eternal death.
Most of us have to settle for the little things, like changing negative thoughts and talk patterns that put self or others down and keeps us from our full potential.

You cannot think positive until you learn to deal with the negative. When you do learn to deal with the negative you will then call that positive also.
