Develop positivity for productivity, peace of mind, energy and happiness! Start the one week positivity challenge with me today — that is only 7 days, not too long a time to keep to it but it can be the start of a life changing experience.

Why should you do this?

All around us we are surrounded by negativity. Just look at the media as an example, when is the last time you saw something positive and happy being regularly reported in the press or announced on the news… Unfortunately, the media — among others — does the maximum to make us believe it has become a negative world.

The problem is that if we are constantly being fed negativity we start to look at the world through a negative lens and we replicate that mindset.

What benefit is there to negative thinking? None! It drains your energy, blocks your creativity, procrastination takes over, achievement declines drastically and often it can lead down the slippery slope towards misery and depression.

By actively deciding to keep a positive outlook and reaction to all that happens around us we ourselves feel better, we cope with situations more easily, we smile more, we laugh and we dramatically increase our enjoyment of life.

Don’t get me wrong, we can’t live in a naive ‘happy bubble’ but we can choose to find the positive side of things, be it joy in an unexpected action, or learning a lesson for the future from a difficult or unpleasant experience. The main aim in these situations is not to whinge, moan, complain, feel sorry for oneself, criticise or attack when something you don’t like happens but look for the ‘silver lining’. You are choosing positive…
