Always thinking positive may be more complicated than it seems, especially if you've been through difficult experiences, but nothing is impossible. So, follow the steps below, and if they're strenuous, think positive - you CAN do it!
Steps
Step 1. Look at the glass as half full, not half empty
For example, if you take six exams and pass three, don't mull over the three unsuccessful exams, but focus on the three you passed.
Step 2. Learn to appreciate your qualities
If you are happy and you respect yourself, you can think positively more easily. Convince yourself that you are someone special and that you have many positive characteristics. Instead of worrying about your flaws, grab a pen and paper and write down all the things you value about yourself. Regardless of the shortcomings you think you may have, you have many other strengths, even if you may not be able to pinpoint them.
Step 3. Know how to recognize the good in others
It is wrong to point the finger at the faults of others - no one will appreciate you for this attitude. Don't skimp on compliments, you will be respected and receive compliments in turn, becoming more confident and optimistic.
Step 4. Think positive and you will get positive things
When an optimistic person encounters difficulties, they still manage to grasp the positive side. For example, if he fails to pass an exam, instead of complaining he throws himself on books to prevent it from happening again. Use past experiences as a learning tool. Consider each failure as an opportunity to improve, and remember that what doesn't kill you strengthens you.
Step 5. Live a happy life
Negative people generally lead rather boring lives. Make sure you live a busy life. Get rid of the wrong people and surround yourself with wonderful friends. Every day dedicate to your favorite activities and do them well. If you love going to the beach, go there. Don't be afraid to live a life on the edge, because sometimes we all need new emotions.
Step 6. Set short and long term goals
Goals are important in giving direction to your life, and when you reach them, your confidence - and therefore your optimism - skyrockets. Set goals that are difficult, but not impossible to achieve. When you fulfill your purpose, you will be filled with a charge of positive energy.
