How Can One Maintain A Positive Attitude When Things Do Not Appear To Be Going The Way You Want Them To?

Kimmie and Kaz are right. I was feeling down one time, so I forced a smile when I went to school or work each day. One day, when I walked into class, I burst into a real smile, and felt great. One thing you can also do is try to find little things in life to smile about, to be thankful for. Even the smallest things, like, “I wasn’t late today” or “Hey, I get to see my friend _______ at work.” Appreciate the tiny things in life. I hope this helps!

Do you remain as a selfish child ? Always happy when all desires are realized…all that you want is within grasp…all that is hoped for is seen to be near ? Raise your standard higher and go where few have dared go before…dare to be and become that which is far beyond the horizon and oftimes remains hidden in obscurity…. Go by faaith (not presumption) and you will be the better for it… Pick up “your” cross and follow him to be a partaker of his life & spirit and you will become human…and attain all that of which your limited vision and desire had no possibility of seeing nor perceiving when you “thought” you were not having things go the way you wanted…..

Sometimes that can be the hardest thing to do….
But it’s good to always make that effort. Realize that if things aren’t going the way you want, it’s because they’re going the way you NEED. Evidently, there’s some lesson that needs to be learned from the way things are going!
Of course, it’s always easier said than done! But just try to remember that after the frustration wears off! (lol)

Prayer has always been a great help to me for help in being able to cope and to focus on who my source is. Soon as my focus is straightened out, I sleep better because I let go of the day and its disappointment get back into accepting life on its own terms. AND I remember that life is just “moments”. Tomorrow those moments will change.

My counselor had told me once that if you smile, then most likely the cells in your brain will react differently and you’ll be a bit more happier. Also, just keep thinking that everything happens for a reason (good and bad)

When the world gives you lemons, make lemonade. You can turn everything into a positive. You just have to think differently

If you’re a person of faith, that’s when you need to release it to God and trust Him to work it for your good and His glory. )

I try to remind myself that negative aspects are neither wrong or bad. A battery for example needs both to produce power. Some times though I just feel washed out and sore….As one does of course.

No matter how things are going for you , you have to look into it to find the advantage for you .

If you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on.

By looking at the good things that are still going for you
