@Shane – Yup, negativity is habit forming, and like attracts like so is a feedback loop

@Easton – Good idea, thankfulness is definitely an antidote

@Michelle – Totally, looking for the good helps in all areas of life, especially relationships

Blog Post after my own heart, thanks! Sometimes I feel myself becoming negative or sardonic, typically when I’m having a bad time, and I don’t feel good about myself. The post might even be really funny, but I don’t want to get laughs like that, anymore.

This advice applies to all areas, and I swear if you practice it, you will be happier.

Thanks :)

Years ago I started doing something in my personal daily journal that has blessed my life ever since. I would try to write at least one positive, uplifting experience or thought or feeling from each day of my life.

Many bloggers ought to try the same thing – highlight the positive and the light up the darkness.

Some very good points here! If you are always thinking negative then it will be so much harder for you to succeed in anything you want to than if you are positive. Though I really do know how hard being positive can be!
