The Plus Point (positivity)
The positive attitude in us which made the human civilization a success for more than 1000 years in this earth facing all the mental and physical challenges is what we call positivity. This positive attitude can be said as hope which we all know by various experiences. Hope and positivity is related to each other as a positive desire is hope and the reason for a positive desire is our positive attitude or what we call positivity.
“Hope springs eternal in the human breast; man never is, but always to be, blest” as said by the poet, Pope, he meant to say that we rarely think we have all we desire now, but we think we shall have it sometime in the future. And it is well that hope has such a lot of vitality and is so hard to kill. As it is said by the great men that “we live by hope” and it is true that hope keeps us alive and this is all because of the positive attitude in us and we can conclude that positivity keeps us alive and we live by living positively and all those who don’t know to be positive, they live in despair.
Positive Thinking
The main ingredients for positivity are positive attitude, confidence, trust in one’s own self, courage and optimism. People who are optimistic in nature, they never think of negative results even in the worst conditions but people who are pessimistic, they always try to think about negative things even in happiest occasions. There are two kind of people in this world who lives thinking positively and the others who live by seeing others living happily.
Positive attitude often leads in taking risk but some of us may think that taking is not safe way but actually if we win by taking risk then we will be the winner but if we lose then we will become wise which many of us don’t know but it’s the fact! We can say positivity as a good character trait but it actually consists of all the good virtues in a man such as honesty, confidence, courage, etc.’ You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude toward what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.’ As said by Pope John XXIII, he meant to say that we cannot control our fate or what is happening to us but we can change the situation by changing the our thinking to a positive way and changing the course of the situation and turning the situation to a good one if the situation is not favorable.
Positivity can make us win
We must learn to be positive as positive attitude always have an advantage over the situation as when we have positivity in us, we can handle the situation better and safely without any misconception which can make situation worse. Everyone should at least read the poem ‘If‘by Rudyard Kipling in which he gave the detailed account of having a positive attitude.
