STEPS TO
DEVELOPING A
POSITIVE
ATTITUDE
Focus on what you are thankful for in your life. Identify one or
more things that went well for you each day.
KEEP A DAILY GRATITUDE AND
VICTORY JOURNAL.
1
Have fun, balance work and pleasure; spend time with your
family and friends. Make time every day to do the things you
enjoy.
TAKE TIME TO PLAY.
2
Eat healthy, exercise regularly, and get enough rest. It's hard to
be positive when you're feeling exhausted and run down.
IMPROVE YOUR HEALTH.
3
Beware of television, radio, and newspapers: what kind of
messages are they bombarding you with daily? Try to keep
your exposure to negativity at a minimum.
CUT OUT THE NEGATIVE.
4
Sit up straight, smile, walk proudly, and breathe deeply. Do
this for 60 seconds and you'll start to feel the difference
(Honestly! Give it a try right now!)
ADJUST YOUR POSTURE.
5
Negative emotions indicate that your thoughts are negative.
You'll know it's time to shift mental gears.
MONITOR YOUR EMOTIONS.
6
They will rub off on you. Maybe even consider starting an
informal optimist club where a group agrees to support each
other in the effort of thinking positive.
SPEND TIME WITH POSITIVE PEOPLE.
7
Think about problems as challenges that need your creativity
to come up with solutions.
BECOME SOLUTION ORIENTED
8
Identify lessons learned after every project and every
situation.
LEARN FROM EVERY EXPERIENCE
9
Instead of, “these meetings are a waste of time,” try saying,
“I’m looking forward to talking about the new strategy in
today’s meeting. ”
PRACTICE USING POSITIVE LANGUAGE.
10
Extending a helping hand to those in need makes you feel needed
and worthwhile. Make it a habit to volunteer for charitable
organizations. Helping others allows us to be thankful for the blessing
we have and helps us maintain a positive attitude.
HELP OTHERS
11
While you can't control outside circumstances, you can control your
reaction to them. If you're currently working in a job with a boss who
is demeaning, make a conscious effort to tell yourself that his poor
behavior can make you upset only if you allow it.
CONTROL YOUR REACTIONS.
