In a society like today, I feel as if there are many pessimists with few optimists. With such a negative outlook on things, there are higher chances of the outcome of any situation turning out to be negative. In order to change this, there must be more positivity spread throughout the world. We all cannot live in a world that will only create rain clouds and thunderstorms; there must be sunshine and rainbows welcomed into the world. Moreover, in order to keep positivity in the world, we must look past the unnecessary negativity that may come up. I feel that many of us are always hopeful for a happier society or a more enjoyable lifestyle, but we aren’t willing to do anything about it. Some ways we can stay positive are:

1. Surround yourself with positive people.

By doing this, their positivity should leap onto you, thus making you a more positive person.

2. Think before you do.

As a result of this, your actions and words will be more thought out, creating a way for you to notice if what you’re about to say or do will be thought out.

3. Always note the positives in every situation.

Realize that there is something positive in even the worst situation. When noticing only the negatives, you will live a negative life, but picking out all the positives will create a better way to live.

4. Don’t beat yourself up.

Don’t question your actions. Realize that you have to do things for you, and whenever a negative thought pops into your head, replace it with a positive one. Not only will this result in you having a better mindset, but also it will result in a better thought process.

Always remember to keep a healthy and positive mindset. This type of mindset will have you realizing that there is so much more to life than the negatives.
