Being Positive by Choice

Is being positive something you need to think about? Does it come naturally to you? Is it hard to do? The level of difficulty depends on the situation you find yourself in and on the state your mind is in.

It is easier to be positive when everything is going your way. Did you get a promotion or raise at work? Your kid is happy? Did you get a dog or ate your favorite food? In these situations most of the time you don’t need to try hard to be positive. It almost comes naturally, as if the world is your plaything and you are on top of everything.

But, what about when things are not going well? What can you do at those times? Is it worth it to somehow be positive in those moments? Yes, it is both worth it and important. By being positive you can find a way to move forward, a way to start looking for a solution, if one can be found, a way to lower your stress and be healthier. Remember that stress, sadness and negativity can affect your health.

How can you go back to being positive? Try to look for the good points of the situation. Look for how these can help you learn and grow. Don’t let yourself become stuck, find a way to move forward. Talking to friends a family can also help you to overcome it. You might even find that doing a hobby helps you with this.

It is important to remember that there are some situations where you might need some professional help. Thar is ok, the important thing is for you to be able to go back to be happy and positive.

Always remember that you are not alone, even if it seems like the whole world is against you. There is always light at the end of the tunnel. The situation you found yourself in might not be by choice, the negative feelings that come to you might not be by choice, but it is your choice to move forward and if needed to find help to move forward. It is your choice to be positive once again.

Never give up and always move forward wirh a smile on your face.

Be Positive

These is the season when you see people excited, celebrating with friends and family. The season of warm and smiles. But, we have to remember that many times this is not the type of feelings that come during this season. Sometimes what comes are feelings of depression, reminders of being alone, of better times.


Especially right now this is true, with road blocks to family and friends getting together to celebrate, to share and have fellowship. Does this mean that we should not have joy, that we should not be happy? No, these are the moments that we have to continue to move forward, to find the positive in any moment that comes.


Remember that happiness starts from within, and being positive is a very important step in order to achieve it. If you have negative thoughts, then your mood will go down and sadness will approach you. Being positive is very important in order for us to be happy.


Having this mindset is not an easy task, there are a lot of external factors that affect us, that can change our mood and our thoughts. Remember to always try to find the positive in anything that comes your way. Find a way to make it work for you, not against you. The more that you do this, the more it will become a habit for you. Make being positive a habit, make being happy your mood.


Once you accomplish that the work is not over. Maybe you know a friend or a family member who is struggling with feelings. Help them, share your happiness, but remember to be gentle. You don’t want to be a bulldozer that tries to fix their feelings according to your will. You are there to help them, but it will always be their choice on accept your help and how to proceed. Be gentle and supportive. Be an example that radiates true happiness.

A New Day

Today is a brand new day, we can either choose to move forward or get stuck in the past. The choice is ours to make.

But, does it mean that once we decide to move forward we forget the past? Not exactly. We should learn from our past, but do not let it control us. We are shaped by anything that happens to us, but we also have the power to not let us control the rest of our lives.

Sometimes moving past certain moments from our our lives is not easy. They seem to have a hold on us, they seem to want to control us. Never give into those moments, look for the good that can come out of it, and if you see that you need assistance, then look for someone who can help. Never be ashamed to look for help.

Once you are able to move past those moments, that’s when you can see that it’s a brand new day, one that it’s full of possibilities and one that can fill you with happiness. Never forget that you are worth it, never forget that you will be ok.

Never give up and always move forward. A new day will always come.
