Is Being Positive a part of your lifestyle or a choice?

Why should one be positive? I know you’re probably wondering if this is a rhetorical question? Being positive makes you happy. It’s just that obvious. But, give it a thought anyways, why is being positive so important?

I think being positive is currently the best most underrated concept out there. While it is one of the hardest things a person has to do, especially considering the current circumstances, if you can be positive for even a quarter of your day, you should be proud of yourself. You genuinely deserve a walk around the city, but a walk to the fridge might just be more fitting right now.

People often ask me how I manage to stay positive through so many things and honestly, I can’t even come up with an answer anymore. It’s not that I choose to be positive, instead, positivity has just become a part of who I am and it has been for a very long time now. I have my lovely mother to thank for that. I’ve seen her smile through the toughest of times ever since I was a little girl and I’ve always admired her for it. Her positivity is definitely one of the reasons that help me stay sane in the midst of all the chaos.

I also strongly believe in the phrase “You attract your tribe” because one of the biggest reasons that help me look at the brighter side of life is because even when the going gets tough I know I have people I can always rely on.

The people I surrounded myself with are constantly striving to be better individuals with a positive mindset and that is so important. I cannot stress this enough and it is because of the people around me that I find it hard to not be positive or happy. It’s just a good vibe and isn’t that what all of us want? To live and be in an environment where we’re comfortable, yet open to change with a positive attitude. That is exactly what being positive gets you. It gets you several steps closer to where you see yourself in the future.

I know times are tough, but so are you!
