A positive attitude causes a chain reaction of positive thoughts, events and outcomes. It is a catalyst and it sparks extraordinary results. ~ Wade Boggs

Having a Positive Attitude

I always advise people to focus on what they love and not on what they hate. To look for the good in people instead of the bad. To act as the persons they would love to become and not as they were programmed to be. Because what you focus on expands and what you resist, not only persists but will also grow in size.

What we resist, not only persists but will also grow in size.  ~ Carl Jung

By being a happy person, by focusing on the good rather than the bad, having a positive attitude instead of a negative one, on what you want rather than what you don’t want, you can drastically transform yourself, your life, and the lives of those you love.

7 Tremendous Effects of Having a Positive Attitude

1. Hope

When others do nothing but to criticize and complain, you focus on the good in people, you look beyond the surface and the labels. You focus on what can be done not on what was and on what is, you create a new reality for yourself and those around you. You break the rules and you show the world how IMPOSSIBLE can become I’M POSSIBLE.

You’ve gotta have to hope. Without hope life is meaningless. Without hope, life is meaning less and less. ~Author Unknown

2. Boost Self Confidence

We rarely stop to think how powerful our words are and the impact they can have on people’s lives.

Words have the power to both destroy and heal. When words are both true and kind, they can change our world.~ Buddha

By beautifying our thoughts, by using kind words when we speak with ourselves and with others, by looking for opportunities instead of obstacles, by looking for the good in ourselves and others and by praising the good traits instead of the bad ones, we help boost our own self-esteem, self-confidence and also the self-confidence of those we interact with.

By doing so, we help transform a negative attitude and begavior into a positive atittude and we go from being unhappy to being happy.

3. Positive Impact

By having a positive attitude, not only will you have a positive impact on people’s lives by constantly looking for ways to bring the GOOD on the surface through everything you do, but you will also have a positive impact on the world we all live in, for you can’t help one person without helping yourself and without helping the whole world.

“Give yourself entirely to those around you. Be generous with your blessings. A kind gesture can reach a wound that only compassion can heal.”~ Steve Maraboli

4. Awakening

With a positive attitude, you help people awaken by telling them how much you believe in them and by showing them how much you care about their needs and desires. So many of us live most of our lives on autopilot and by treating people differently and by praising vs. criticizing, you help “awaken the giant within them.” ~ Tony Robbins

“Once the soul awakens, the search begins and you can never go back. From then on, you are inflamed with a special longing that will never again let you linger in the lowlands of complacency and partial fulfillment. The eternal makes you urgent. You are loath to let compromise or the threat of danger hold you back from striving toward the summit of fulfillment.”  ~ John O’Donohue

5. Meaningful Living

Whenever you catch people doing something positive, having a positive attitude, praise them and tell them how precious and valuable they are; tell them how much the world needs their unique gifts and talents and how without them the world would be incomplete. Lead by example; allow yourself to be a source of inspiration for many and know that by bringing meaning and purpose into your life you will inspire and help others do the same.

When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing — then we truly live life.~ Greg Anderson

6. The Gift of Love

People look for inspiration, they look for role models, somebody from whom they can learn, somebody who can inspire and empower them, they look for somebody who can help heal their fears and unleash their hidden potential. And with a positive attitude, you help them find just that.

“Keep away from people who try to belittle your ambitions. Small people always do that, but the really great make you feel that you, too, can become great.” ~ Mark Twain

By being the happy and positive person that you are, and having a positive attitude, by loving yourself and your life, by following your heart and making your dreams come true, you inspire others to do the same, and you offer the world the gift of love. Love for themselves, love for the work they do, love for the people around them and what’s most important, LOVE for their own LIVES!

7. Happiness

In conclusion, you offer yourself and the whole world the gift of happiness. When you yourself get to a place where you can accept yourself completely, where you can be satisfied with who you are and what you have, you will be able to be happy with those around you also. The outside world is nothing more than a projection of our inner world and

Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.~ Carl Gustav Jung

Because you will understand the words of Buddha on how “Happiness never decreases by being shared”, you will constantly look for ways to inspire and to share your happiness with everybody around you and making sure that at least one life has breathed easier because you have lived.

Remember to always at least try to have a positive attitude.
