How to Become More Positive in Life!

Life comes with its own turns and twists. Sometimes it is smooth and straight and easy to follow, but at a certain point of time, there are situations and things around us and about us which make it so much complicated that, most of us think that life is just not worth living. But then have you ever thought, there are people who are happy because of us, for the reason that we exist in this world.

We shall not go far, our very own parents, they live just to see their children growing happy and successful. Life sometimes is not meant to live for one own self, but also for others.

This might sound philosophical, those who work for the society and people in there do gain a lot of support. The most prominent example present before, Anna Hazare, fighting for the youth and with the youth in order to eradicate malpractices going around in the country. An old man fighting for the country, even he is working for the Indian citizens and the Indian society.

Someone has truly said, “Live life king size”. Live for yourself and for others, and then when you see anyone benefiting out of that you shall be the happiest person to see that. We all have to maintain our lives balanced even at the stressful times. But being optimistic in all walks of life, definitely pays big dividends in the long run. Here are a few ways in which you can adapt a positive attitude in life, you but might have to exert yourself in the beginning.

• Always think gratitude – this shall definitely have a very positive impact on your life. This means that you should always feel very grateful for what you are and what you have in life. As we sat “count your blessings, name them one by one”. Think that you are the chosen one. You family shall have been incomplete if you would not have been there. Your parents are the biggest asset for you in life, value them. No one in this entire universe cares for you as much as they do. Care for them and feel lucky to have them.
• Always choose happiness – do all those things in which you find yourself happy and contended. Any such work, seeing to which even others feel great about it. But most importantly it should be you who feels good about it and try and appreciate your own work rather than expecting others to do it. Till the time you are happy with your work and the efforts you put in, no one can ever stop you from being successful in the near future.
• Welcome challenges in life rather than problems – one should always be ready to face challenges in life. Challenges come in life just to check and make you realize as to how much patience and dedication you have to deal with it. Life is full of barriers and thorns, it shall not always be a bed of roses. Therefore if you are opposed by any of the constraints, you have to move ahead rather than crying over the failure. Life gives you tasks so accomplish them and once when you fulfil or accomplish them, you are the hero for your own self and of course people look up to you and praise you.
• Life is an adventurous journey – enjoy every moment of life, you do not have to fear as to what shall happen to you the very next moment, keep doing your tasks that life gets for you. We must keep looking for unfamiliar experiences. This is something that makes life more interesting and worth living.
• Begin your day with a positive approach – spend a few minutes of early morning for yourself, which should be a complete “me” time for you. Do exercise or yoga or anything with which you feel relaxed. Close your eyes for sometime think about the one who has given you life and also the situation had you not been there. Then think over all the good times you have had and all the good people you have around you. Also think about the good times coming ahead, although all of them might not be very good or good, but the good deeds that you have done and with the positive approach you will be able to accomplish everything. This helps you to follow the concept of positivism throughout the day.
• Look out for the positive side of life – once you are in a habit of taking everything positively then there shall be nothing that you will have to worry about. Try to make out or find positive things in a person and if still you are unable to in any person, then it is advisable to stay away from such a person. It is very important to stay away from the negative thoughts that will surely cover your mind, but your approach towards positivism should be such that you are sure as to in what direction to think.
• Act happy and be happy always – once when people see you happy, those who envy you will grow even more envious. But then those who are your well wishers shall try to know the reason behind such happiness and wish in abundance for you.
• Hang out with people who have a positive approach – once when you are in someone’s company you will automatically get to know as to which person is positive in his approach. Those who envy you, and are jealous of your success, can never be true friends. Try and avoid company of such persons. They will always suggest wrong things to you. In most if the cases listen to what your mind says but still if you are in a dilemma, ask those whom you trust that they can never advice wrong things to you.
• Go to bed with good things that you did in a day – everyday before going to bed think about all good things that has happened to you, or your deeds which have made people feel good or happy. These are things which sometime back probably our teachers use to teach us in class, but may be now the right time has come that we should start applying them practically.
• Avoid negative influence – when you are at your best there will be people around you to curb your success. Try and stay away from such people who possess negative vibes. A persons thoughts about you shall be clear to you once you start testing them on small issues, whether it is regarding taking some advice from them or asking them to help you in a certain way.

Therefore one can soar to high positions with a positive attitude in life. Failures do come in life and at all times one cannot always be of positive approach, but just to begin with, try to make someone happy and see the amount of pleasure that you get. This is life !
