The art of being positive

Everyone talks about positive thinking. Optimism has become a piece of advice. Nevertheless, positive people identified by society as such are often considered to be weaker than others.

According to most of us, "optimists" are people who have no real idea of ​​life because of the lack of problems and the possibility of too much free time.

When it is time to determine if the glass is half empty or half full, most like to say they are realists and think that they can get the most intelligent of the situation, but to be even more intelligent let's ask the question: Is not really actually an abstract concept that makes it different depending on the individual's point of view? Well, then we have to divide ourselves positively or negatively.

Being positive is often understood as an indicator of weakness. You see, man has no choice because if he sees the "reality" he will not be able to bear it. But ultimately, this public prejudice, like everyone else, is totally untrue.

Being positive is a way of life! This is the choice you make in every situation. It's the decision to realize everything that's happening to you, and instead of living on an autopilot, to take responsibility for your inner state and your external behavior.

It is still the quality to master what you control, the way you personally want, and to perceive what you can not control in the best possible way in order to be productive.

Being positive is definitely the harder option, not only because of the unexpected situations and the alarming events but mostly because of the people who surround us. This choice requires wisdom, stoicism, and patience, as well as much discipline and perseverance.

Being positive is not something you will achieve simply by following the recipe because we are not born optimists, but we are going a long way to learn to be such. Sometimes we have to fight ourselves. There is no one to program us to do it, because it all depends on our efforts, which sometimes, in an instant of fatigue, will be meaningless, but in the end, we will always pay back.

All this looks a little like growing an orchid - one of the most beautiful flowers - you do not even need to advertise it because you know it will make a wonderful impression on you. You want to have it in your home because you see how good it is with your neighbors. You make the decision to buy it, read a little on the web for her, but finally, you have no idea how to take care of her. You wondered why it looked so good at the store, and when it took her to you, it was such a pain to keep it.

Sometimes you do not know what's going on, but at that moment you still choose! Will you believe that you will see the colors or you will give up because the orchid will die anyway?

Be positive! Well, yes, it requires a lot of patience, perseverance, purposefulness, ruthlessness, but you know the orchid will eventually flourish, so it's worth it. And do you know why it's still worth it? Not just the result is important, the sweetest is the way to achieving it!

The next time you get to know some "optimist" to know he's not a windy man ...
