Positivity changes lives
The world around us is filled with negativity and it unknowingly impacts our lives on a day to day basis

See being negative is easy and requires no real effort and after a while it starts to become a habit. I am talking out of experience here. There will be days that nothing bad happened but out of habit I would be down and sad. People do not realise it until they decide to make a change in their lives
Proverbs 23:7
For as he thinks in his heart, so is he.
This is absolutely true. This goes with @giantbear's post about the law of attraction. If we radiate positive energy outward towards the world , the world will respond with positive energy. It is that simple. But then again the opposite is true as well. Radiate negativity and you will attract negative energy towards you.
Now I am not saying that being positive all the time will ensure nothing bad or negative happens to you. No. I am just saying when something bad happens and you still choose to stay positive, you will see it as a learning curve along your route and it would not seem that bad. Because what happens is something very small can trigger the negativity inside you and that tends to worsen the situation or it might appear that the hurdle can not be overcome.
Being positive starts within you

We need joy as we need air. –Maya Angelou
To be joyful one must reflect. Reflecting is necessary to discover what makes you happy. If you are happy and joyful being positive becomes easier. If you keep the verse above in mind then to become a positive person you need to think about it daily. It needs to become a routine because thinking and staying positive can be challenging. But once we rewire our brains and let positive emotions and energy become a habit then you will be.
This verse applies to everything in life as you read in @giantbear's post.But my main focus today is tell you that when you think positive you will become a positive person.
In the end it is all about personal growth and development. Why not develop yourself as a joyful and positive person. Life is too short to be negative and down about everything. Enjoy it and remember it does not matter if you fail or lose motivation to stay positive. As long as you try, growth will take place.
Being positive really depends on us. Great post.
Thank you @ayingroxie. It does but like I said staying positive is difficult. Right now I am struggling to stay positive but my will to try outweighs all the negative thoughts. We just need to keep on trying
I cannot agree to you more. Being positive is indeed hard, or very hard as I say. It takes a lot of willpower. Meditation though will help.
Lovely words to help me pushup with my day @richie.ebb, there is a particular thing i have been dealing with here and it seems that i might never get to achieve it, but with these words, am positive and will hit on it again, thank you.
I truly believe you will achieve it. Just keep on working towards it and believing. What you think you become @aideedavies
Great post, never enough positivity to go around in this world.
The challenge then lies in staying positive when everything looks bleak and the world is against you.
@pavlove getting to a point where the world does not determine your state of mind is crucial. It takes time but what a man thinks he will become. It is all about growing
agree. think positive is very important in your life journey
