RE: Stay Optimistic and Reap the Benefits.

So true! I think a lot of people miss the part where positivity is really a practice, not just something "some people are born with." I should know... I used to have a pretty doomsday like attitude! For me, pausing to take moments of gratitude for "what is" is a large part of generally living with a positive attitude.

Thanks for this post!

Even though I thought I was super positive in the end I wasn't. It has to become a practice like you say @Denmarkguy.

"a lot of people miss the part where positivity is really a practice" - Absolutely, it needs to become a habit - which can be a challenge if, like me, you've grown up in a v-negative environment and have been conditioned by it.

Interesting your point about accepting 'what is'; most people resist what is, but accepting it (which comes from recognising that it's just your thinking that's the issue), opens the door to serendipity and 'good luck' - that's been my experience, at any rate.
