How positive are you?

Thursday 29th October 2020
Be the reason someone smiles today


Well I managed 6 hours again, my waking wasn't as nice as yesterday, hearing mom scream in pain is not a nice alarm, that poor woman is in so much bloody pain with that leg ulcer.  She's settled a little now and watching the news calling them all names - it's taking her mind off stuff anyway. 

I was reminded of something yesterday after a telephone chat with a lady who I'd never spoken to before but I'd asked if I could call her for some tips and advice.  Oh this lady was wonderful and it reminded how important it is to surround yourself with those on the same mission as you!  It's a great idea to make a conscious effort to surround yourself with positive, nourishing, and uplifting people. People who believe in you, encourage you to go after your dreams and applaud your victories.  Those people that reflect who you want to be and how you want to be!

Because let's be honest life is tough at the best of times, but this year more so than every, and unfortunately it doesn't come with a manual!  There are those people our there though, that you know can help you through, these are the people you want in your life! 

We all need a support system so why not look for positive people, I'm not talking dillusional ones, not those that stick their fingers in their ears whilst singing 'La la la, I'm not listening' when times get tough, more those that see the difficulties but keep going, someone who will lift you when you're feeling low or need a shoulder to cry on. Someone to lighten the mood and llisten when you need some support.  

Like attracts like, so the more positive you are, the more likely to attract similar.  We all could do with practicing positiving right now, even the most positive person is having to actually make the effort some days.  I had another chat with a friend yesterday and she told me that she wasn't herself at all, I could relate, normally we're both 'let's sort stuff and get on with it' but yesterday, she couldn't motivate herself at all sat looking at this on her tele; 


I have to say though it is nice to watch!

So how do you practice positivity?!

You could start by making a realistic goal and setting yourself a challenge this can help you  become happier that you're going towards where you want it to. Writing those goals down and keeping them close to act as a reminder.  Smile, they're contagious, if you smile at someone they ususally smile back. Even when you’re feeling the love, fake it, a simple smile can put you in a better mood.  Remember that the positivity you give and surround yourself with can go a long way to making you feel happier, as Gandhi said: “Don’t let anyone walk through your mind with their dirty feet”.

Here's 10 habits of positive people, can you make use of any of this; 

1. Positive people let things go - they don't quit!  

2. Positive people don’t just have a good day – they make a good day.

3.They leave the past in the past.

4. Positive person are grateful people.

5. Rather than being stuck in limitations, positive people are energised by possibilities.  Optimistic people focus on what they can do, not what they can’t do.  

6. Positive people do not let their fears interfere with their lives!

7. Positive people smile a lot!

8. People who are positive are great communicators.

9. Positive people realise there are times for great pain and sadness.

10. Positive people refuse to blame others and are not victims in life.


Just for today, make the effort to be more positive, be observant of those around you and their behaviour, Ibecause as we all know, there is certainly nothing positive about being negative!


Mwah, luv ya 


Love me xx
