I was discussing with an elderly woman who was delayed for seven years after wedding before she could conceive her first child. She shared with me;

I was hoping and waiting every month, and years passed by without conception. Six years later, I started feeling some pains in one of my breasts, every signs proved it was breast cancer but I stayed positive and continued to tell myself that my breast is to feed babies and not for cancerous growth. Then it came true for me as I fed babies with breast milk

There is power in staying positive, even in seemingly hopeless situations, when the positive mind is maintained, it often turn out good.

Life itself presents us with many negatives; negative news, negative people, negative results and so on.. We can only thrive by maintaining positive mindset.

There is a phrase we need to re-examine and begin to use it in positive manners, because it's often used negatively. "What if"

"What if it doesn't work?" , "what if I lose my mind?" "what if I get laid off?" "What if, what if, what if"...

Whenever the phrase crosses your mind, use it in the positive sense; what if it works? What if I get promoted? What if I get it? And so on..

Life is too short to live it in bitterness,

Positive people get positive results and excel in life because a man is a sum total of his thoughts.

Develop a positive mindset, work with positive people who would influence your thought pattern, don't walk with people that will run you down as see nothing good in you.

Stay positive, smile, live happily and you will start to experience the positive aspects of life.

Great post @petoz ! Its like instead of saying "I think I can , I think I can , I think I Can !" we should be being much more positivie and saying " I know I Can ..." Instead !! Thanks for sharing this motivational post with us all in my #popcontest , Good Luck ! Upped an resteemed !👍👍👍💕😊

Thank you so much. Your post just cleared my head. i have been having issues cos my priorities have been wrong. Lately I have been having misunderstanding with my family. My desire has been to make good money. i didnt want to be distracted by family or friends. I felt everyone can wait until i get what i want. It made me to isolate myself, shut them out emotionally and mentally. but reading this i realize my heart has been in the wrong place cos i have treasured the wrong things FIRST. I realize the quest to greatness is easier, shorter and less burdensome when we share it with people we love and we know love us too. Thank Bro. from my heart....THANK YOU FOR THIS POST. WOULD GIVE U 100 VOTES IF I COULD..

it is true that all these work for a positive life, cos you can only bring out great things out of something when you are happy and optimistic

That's right @freedom12, thanks for your wonderful contribution. I appreciate you.

That's true @petoz, you know every morning when I wake up, this is the first thing I wake up to see

I can do whatever I want to do. I can be whatever I want to be. If I believe I can do anything
I know the power of positive declaration so I write it where I see it first thing every morning.

That's a great one @mr-aaron. Positive confession is a great investment. Thanks for sharing
