Have you ever noticed how negativity brings us down? It makes us tired. It makes us lethargic. It causes us to neglect ourselves.Have you ever noticed how positive people seem to be so full of life? Their lives always seem to be on the go. They always seem to be doing something amazing.
Being positive and having a positive outlook on life keeps us moving, hoping and dreaming. When we are positive our energy is high because we are looking forward to what the new day will bring. We don't allow our troubles to bring us down. We smile, we attract positive people to us, we enjoy living in the moment and the endorphins flow.
It's those things that keep us young. It is not a literal fountain of youth but rather one which effects our thinking. In a previous post I talked about the importance of not losing your inner child and in many ways this is the same. Our Quality of life is always greater when we actively remind ourselves to look for the good rather than the bad.
When we are active, joyful, happy people we add years to our lives by filling our time here with quality. Imagine what you could achieve in 60 years of positive thinking compared to 60 years of negative thinking.
- "Life can hit hard. Sometimes you get knocked down when you don’t even see it coming. Some are cheap shots, some are glancing blows and some can bring you to your knees. When this happens, it’s not about how hard you get hit; it’s about how hard you can get hit, but still find the strength to keep moving forward. It’s about having the will to continue in spite of the obstacles".
