When you keep trying, and trying, and trying, yet things don't change, what can you do? How do you keep a positive outlook when nothing is moving in the right direction?

You have to pray about it.

Every day is a new day to maintain a positive outlook you need to focus your attention to the things you can have some input into and determine the outcome.
The other stuff is out of your control and no amount of depressive behaviour will change the outcome...it will be what it will be.
Each day, think of all the things where YOU CAN have a positive influence on you'll soon find the balance is more positive than ...
Remember making mistakes is positive because you learn from them. Oly ever make NEW mistakes.

I am not a licensed Dr, just letting you know someone hears you. Well, It all depends on what the whole situation is. I believe that if some thing was meant to change, it would. If you keep trying and trying and it isn't working, I would stay positive and take a different path (or the left direction) to your goal.

when nothing is moving in the right direction and I was sure that I was moving in the right direction, I kept on.
Infact I am still keeping on. and on and on.
Thats one reason I clicked on your question.
Its a sad story. I am not proud, nor I would say its better, that I have not lost the hope and I am still trying hard. I do this because no other doors seem to open before me. if you find one, let me know. The alternative.

Try different approaches, and make sure you have the right tools for the job.
I don't keep positive as much as I just refuse to give up, lol. Sometimes negative emotion can be as much of a driver as positive ones.

Don't self-pity! Put in your mind that in every problem there's a solution. Life is like a spinning wheel. Keep on moving on the right path and keep on praying for it's the key to your door of success.

I sometimes think that life is like this analogy. We live in a giant bowl of feces with a sweet,ripe,red cherry on top. If you will vow to endeavor to persevere then there is a possibility of your being able to actually reach that cherry at least some of the time. If the "cherry" is worth the effort then life is good. Life is full of hardships and disappointments ,but these are offset by brief moments of respite. Live your life in the anticipation of the acquisition of as many of these MOMENTS as you can get.

For us the hardest part is just getting going. Sounds like you got that one covered. Great! We’re on the home stretch, now all we have to do is make it happen. And if that don’t work well, make it happen and if that don’t work well, make it happen and if that don’t work well, stop beating head against wall its hurting us just thinking about it. Stop sit and look at wall meditate on it and its weaknesses. Finds our best problem solving is done while sleeping. Our second best problem solving is done while talking about our problem with others, and more good problem solving seams to happen from unrelated synchronicities that seam to bobble up when something is on your mind.
Luck

We had that quandary in Australia wherein I used to be residing and after a drunken chuckle of an notion to irritate a neighbour ended up changing into the group saviour. Laxatives and sandwich meat rolls. Jam percent the ones dogs complete ( like 50 rolls and 10,000 capsules) they ought to be positioned out the equal night time and plenty of exceptional places. It makes them to susceptible to seek natives, and strategy to susceptible to breed.

I pray! A lot. I would say it helps me. And hey, it looks like scientific studies show that people who do pray more have better outlooks and can deal with loss better.

its realy hard. but if you keep remembering that if you give up you will not like the outcome. and you will not be able to blame others for the failure because it will be your fault that you gave up and stopped trying. i look at it like a fight in the boxing ring, if your tired take a break but you have to keep going untill you win! and if the other one wins then you have to wait untill the next match and you can win nextime. and pretty soon keep on winning.
