I believe positive thinking attracts positive things that is why I always try to look things in a positive way. I also know how to accept reality. I know how to compensate with the things I am lacking. I'm happy when good things happened to others and not jealous. You can say that you are a positive thinker if you have a positive attitude towards life. No matter how dark the situation seems. Believe and be confident that in the end, you will overcome it. And if ever you failed, think at least, you gave your very best. Be responsible and learn from your shortcomings. Thats what matter most. When things doesn't come up the way you wanted, don't loss hope but rather, think that you dont get it because there is something better stored for you.

Hi there and smile! Positive thinkers do not suppress their negative emotions. And, unlike negative thinkers, neither do they wallow in them. Instead, they face them and learn from them. They realize that emotions are simply messengers meant to guide our behaviour. If I'm feeling great (experiencing positive emotions), I realize that I'm doing the right things and continue doing so. But when I'm feeling bad (experiencing negative emotions), I realize it is because I'm doing something wrong. So, I stop, analyze my behaviour, learn from my mistakes by changing my ways, and move on. In a word, positive thinkers are guided by reason, common sense and the consequences of their actions. Also, positive thinkers realize that it is not about whether the glass is half full or half empty. Rather, it is about whether the glass needs refilling. You see, they are action oriented. They get things done. Their mode of thinking is life affirming. Also, rather than waste time endlessly repeating, "I can do it! I can do it! I can do it!" they examine what is blocking their way, look for ways to overcome the obstacle, make an action plan, and proceed. It's all about attitude or perspective, isn't it? Yes, it's true, our outlook shapes our outcome. Happy mylotting and smile always!

Right! Being positive at all times doesn't mean you don't have emotions anymore. Its more on setting your mind straight. Not dwelling on the negative things, acting and doing decisions clearly. The more we worry, the more we cannot come up with the right decisions. We harvest what we planted, so if we fill empty inside, maybe we are really doing something wrong. Analyzing ourselves will make as a better person. It is not enough to just think positive, we must do our part. Even if you think good, if you don't put it on action its going to be a waste of time. Make plan and implement.

I myself always trying my best to be a positive thinker. I think being a positive thinker has many benefit for our life. We won't be bothering with any negative energy anymore. Be a positive thinker also can give us a bigger chance to manage our emotional and anger. No one with negative thinker can be a calm and patient person. So that's why, in order to be a success person in our society, first we need to start learning to be a positive thinker. Positive thinker can give a positive thought which really needed in many situation as a problem solving. I believe that everyone want to be a positive thinker, but the problem is not everyone can achieve it. This is not a simple and easy thing. A long progress is needed. My first method for teaching myself to be a positive thinker is by reading as many as motivational books and watching science program on TV. I want to be a logical thinker, not a supertitous thinker. Good luck and have a nice day. Happy mylotting.

guess that we can't just perfectly keep that of being constantly simply positive at all times, corresponding with various circumstances we meet n life. ..Yet keeping it up also with the benefit of the doubts that may possibly guide one's positive aspects obtaining stronger and genuinely good lasting effects.. A sense of positveness in life is well maintained also by appreciating even the simplest matter or thing encountered to pleasantly joy for.. Then considering that the unpleasant realities in life that are passing by with some challenges to receive with some descretions.. Positiveness in life is well valued, if we also know how to value the causes of the negativities.. And that we may start to gain more benefits from here.. To obtain greater positive effects..

Prayer also helps alot! When we think we can't handle the situation anymore and we are staring to loss hope, better ask God to help us make a right desicion. You will definitely not go wrong. We have wisdom and guidance of God. Everything will fall into places. Just never loss hope.

We should always be positive in life. It is true as you say that a positive mind attracts positive things. I truly believe that there is a power in thinking. If we think of certain thing on a positive way there will be a great possiblity of getting a positive outcome from it. Might as well to believe on good thing rather than to pray for unlikely things. Hope, Faith and Believing are the key of having a positive life.

If we think positive we react positively as well. Better live life that way than being hunted by our own ghost. Thanks for responding!
