As research into the applications of mindfulness progresses, both in the medical field for problems like pain and chronic illness management, and in the mental health field through therapies such as Dialectical Behavior Therapy, Acceptance & Commitment Therapy, and Mindfulness-Based Cognitive Therapy continue to increase the empirical support for the efficacy of this approach in a variety of conditions, it behooves us to learn more about this and apply it in our own lives and practices.

1. Treat Others As You Want To Be Treated
All people wish to be treated with respect. The way that you behave others shows your personality. Therefore, if you want to have good personality, including positive thoughts, you should treat other people the way you want to be treated. If you want to be trusted by friends, learn to trust them first. If you want to be loved by your relatives, learn to love them first. If you want to be welcomed by neighbors, learn to welcome them first.
2. Be Tolerant
In order to build positive thoughts, you should learn to forgive people who make you sad or angry. You even need to learn to forgive the ones who offend you. No matter what they do to you, they are teaching you some good lessons in life.
Moreover, you should be honestly happy when people around you succeed in life or at work. Do not be jealous with them as jealousy is one of the typical causes of negative thinking.
3. Avoid Negative Self-Talk
Among positive thinking tips, avoiding negative self-talk is the most important. What you talk to yourself also will result in the way you behave people around. If your mind is full of negative self-talk, you will not be able to treat others with respect as you may believe that they do not deserve your good behavior. When you are in that situation, try to eliminate your negative talk, and tell yourself that everyone may make mistakes, but everyone has something for you to learn from.
4. Do Meditation Or Yoga
Bath helps clean your body and meditation helps clean and refresh your mind. People who meditate on a regular basis have more positive thoughts than the ones who do not meditate. Meditation will certainly become the future of mankind. If you are a wise person, you should start doing meditation today to enjoy its benefits, to think more positively, and to have a better life.
Yoga helps you stop thinking negatively about others as it is really relaxing when you do it. Doing yoga also helps ease and refresh your mind, building positive thoughts.
5. Help People Around
If you can live for others, your mind will always be clean and relaxed. Helping people around is one of the top positive thinking tips. When you try your best to give others a helping hand, you are building your dignity. What you give others will certainly return to you some ways. If you help others, your mind will be built up with love, respect, and gratitude. As a result, you will be thinking positively.
6. Make Friends With Positive People
When you are with positive people, you can learn from them the way they treat others, and the way they think about life. You will gradually change the way you think as positive as they do.

Learning how to have the mindset for success is crucial when you want a successful and blissful life. If you are like me, you might have many goals you want to achieve. Whatever these goals are, the key is to have a growth mindset rather than a fixed one. But what is the difference and how you get it?
Keynote presentation by Values Coach Founder Joe Tye for the 2019 conference of the Association of Clinical Documentation Improvement Specialists, featuring six strategies to be your best self and achieve your most authentic goals.
Our self-esteem is very dependent on factors within our environment. It is formed as a result of our years of experiences (especially the early ones). It could be said that one's eyes and ears record the messages they receive from others, especially those most important to them. Because one's unconscious accepts all words and emotions as facts no matter how legitimate or based in reality, one's self-esteem is being continuously constructed and reconstructed by what is encountered in the mirror of others verbal and nonverbal messages.
Our Founder, Roy Larson spoke on the topic of "Bringing out the Best in People" and how this can increase production, and efficiency in your jobs. Our consultants apply this to their relationships with developers, stakeholders, clients, etc. to be a catalyst in projects and your organizations everyday performance.
Goal Setting for the Already Awesome
AKA: How do I move towards my goals and still love what I do?
Everyone has strengths they bring to what they do. Sometimes though, we get in our own way because we become frustrated, disillusioned, or just plain tired. This presentation was originally designed for competitive young athletes and is applicable to everyone. It is about being able to reach for your biggest goals and do it with enjoyment, even when it gets hard.

Empowering
I like to make my friends embolden and powerful and not diminished and powerless. From the responses I got, I can describe myself as a person who is ready to learn. From the experience with all those people, I can clearly see that I have the eager to acquire new things. I am a person of great ideas and courage in making the very problem that I have to face as an individual or as a group to be an opportunity to grow myself. Sometime I have to stay fearless; I am never afraid to make risk or even mistakes, I choose to risk so as to be able to save a situation. I’m that kind of a person who would work at night just to make sure that a friend or any other person for that matter who is stuck gets help in real time. I have the ability to do a lot of things because I measure my strength clearly so as to determine if there is the need for extra efforts. Also, I believe in being honest with myself and those that need my help. I firmly believe that we must be clear on what we can do and what is beyond our abilities. This about value and where we can apply them, as such I make effort to remain real to mu values to avert any downfalls. Overall, I do my best to ensure that I demonstrate honesty, growth, sincerity, and transformation.
Compassion
I like to make my friends embolden and powerful and not diminished and powerless. I must say that I have all it takes to care genuinely for others in a way that is selfless; I do this because of a genuine desire to assist as well as improve the life of people. It may get or not get me very far in y life, but I have realized that genuine care for other people can inspire them, promote goodness, and serve as an example. Mostly it is imperative to show a person who needs that you care for him or her. I believe that the good or bad things we do to people affect their lives more significantly in a way that we may not know. Therefore, I choose to care genuinely for people to ensure positive impact in their lives. I know I have all that it takes to care for a person; it is an inner instinct to do so since it is part of my personality, I call it empathy. I caring for people is not a choice I have to make but because I feel it is a predisposition to do so. It makes me feel better about myself, connect with other people and improves their lives. There is so much help needed out there, and this is why I believe that it is imperative that I should do whatever I can to assist through the donation of my skills. It is simply by finding ways to express love to others, be it a child, family member, friend, co-worker, or even a complete stranger. For me, showing a little care is all that matters.
Shared vision and action
I try to get all people engaged and also seek their ideas and recognition. Building a good team to manage a task is the other best thing I could do over and over. With the ...

J U N E 1 3 , 2 0 1 4
C A N A D I A N F A M I L I E S 1 2
Mental Strength
2. ‘Definition’ of Mental Strength
Psychologist and Psychology
Instructor Amy Morin defines
mental strength as; the ability to
regulate your emotions, manage
your thoughts, and behave in a
positive manner, despite your
circumstances.
Developing mental strength is
about finding the courage to live
according to your values and
being bold enough to create your
own definition of success.
Mental Strength cannot be
taught, though there are
practices you can exercise to
improve your mental strength.
3. Improvement of your Mental Strength
Evaluate your Core Beliefs
The first step to improvement of
your mental strength is self
evaluation, what’s important to
you?
Expend Mental Energy
Wisely
Avoid wasting your time
worrying about things that are
out of your control.
Replace Negative Thoughts
with Productive Thoughts
Constantly believing “I can never
do anything right,” will hold you
back from reaching your full
potential.
Practice Tolerating
Discomfort
If you are aware of your emotions
and how you respond to certain
situations, you can know the best
course of action.
Daily Self Reflection
Take time to evaluate your
progress daily, consider what you
have learned about your thoughts
and emotions today, and what
you want to accomplish
tomorrow.
4. Signs of Mental Weakness
Self pity
Fear of change
Worrying about things
you can’t control
Worrying about others
thoughts
Fear of taking calculated
risks
Dwelling on the past
Continuing to make the
same mistake
Resenting others success
Giving up after failure
Fearing alone time
Feeling the world owes
you something
Expecting immediate
results
5. Mental Strength in the Home
Share your feelings
This will avoid any
uncomfortable situations
that may hurt others.
Connect with each
other
Open up to happy
conversation with family
members, whether it be
light hearted or
meaningful.
Sleep, Diet, Exercise
Though it may seem like
a cliché, enough sleep,
good diet and sufficient
exercise will make you
feel much better. If you
feel good, you will be
happier overall.
6. Social Media Damage on Mental Strength
With a generation of young
people growing up online,
the media plays a big factor
in how you feel about
yourself.
A crucial step to being
mentally strong is not
concerning yourself with
the thoughts of others. This
becomes difficult with
some people due to
Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram and more.
People begin to judge their
personal value based on the
number of ‘likes’.
Cyberbullying can also
have traumatic affect,
leading to suicide in some
young people.
Repetitively being told you
are not ‘good enough’, or
not ‘normal’, can lead to
believing that it is true, and
that you are worthless.
It is hard to escape the
online world, and hard to
maintain mental strength if
you are constantly being
broken down.
7. Mr. Steve Millar on Mental Strength in Schools
Sociology 12 Teacher
at Horton High School
How do mentally strong
people carry themselves?
“It’s just an air of confidence. I’d
hate to use the 1950’s version of
they stand up tall, they tie up their
laces, they polish their shoes; it’s
not the military. A student could
look like the stereotype of the
slacker, and still be a very
confident individual in their
element. Everyone just needs to
find what their element is. You just
need to give students a chance,
give them the opportunity to be
themselves. A lot of the time when
they have the chance to be
themselves, you can get them to do
just about anything, whether it be
academic or otherwise.”
8. Mr. Steve Millar on Mental Strength in Schools
Sociology 12 Teacher
at Horton High School
Is the school system too soft
on kids’ mentalities?
“No. At this stage in life you need
to allow for the fact that students
are still forming who they are as a
person. So you can’t trample all
over them. Students in high school,
they need to be given the
opportunity to make certain
decision and choices, but we can’t
allow our society to slide down to
the point where we’re always
falling to the lowest common
denominator. You need to give
students opportunities, that’s what
high school should be. It shouldn’t
be an environment where negative
attitudes are encouraged.”
9. Duncan McKie on Trash Talking
QMJHL Drafted elite
hockey player
Do you consider yourself an
avid trash talker?
“I do. I trash talk a lot.”
Who do you target when you
trash talk?
“Usually the weaker players, who
kind of suck. [I] try and get in
their heads, cause once ya get in
their heads they play worse than
they are. Most of the superstars
though; you can’t get in their
head cause they know they’re
better than you.”
10. Duncan McKie on Trash Talking
QM
QMJHL Drafted elite
hockey player
How do you try and affect people?
“Just try and hurt their feelings, say
something that’s really close to them.
To try and take them off their game.”
Do you find yourself being
exploited by trash talkers?
“You won’t get affected [by trash talk] if
you try and zone it out, just keep it out
of your mind.
Any last remarks?
“Cam actually is not a very good athlete
and he’s very weak in the gym.”
11. James Young on Mental Strength in Sports
Certified Strength and
Conditioning Specialist, through
the NSCA (National Strength and
Conditioning Association)
At Acadia Performance
Training, you said you don’t
just encourage physical
strength but you also
encourage mental strength.
What do you mean by that?
“There’s several different aspects
that go in to training strength
and conditioning, obviously the
body is important but the mind is
more than half the battle. If you
have a positive attitude, [if]
you’re mentally focused and
ready; you’re going to be a lot
more successful in the gym and
on the field. That’s a big thing for
us here at APT, we want everyone
to succeed.”
12. James Young on Mental Strength in Sports
Certified Strength and
Conditioning Specialist, through
the NSCA (National Strength and
Conditioning Association)
How do you encourage mental
strength?
“Every day the main thing is focus for us. I
think, personally, that focus is huge for
mental strength. If you’re focused on one
task; than you can focus all your energy on
that task, and everything will work better.”
How does someone with good mental
strength carry themselves? What’s
their attitude?
“Confidence; that’s the main thing. [If] you
ever see anybody that’s mentally tough or has
great mental strength, they’re just confident.
They carry themselves in a way, they walk
around and they’re just confident in their
abilities and they believe in themselves, and
that’s a big thing. And regardless of a kids’
skill level individually, we want them to be
confident.”
13. James Young on Mental Strength in Sports
Certified Strength and
Conditioning Specialist, through
the NSCA (National Strength and
Conditioning Association)
Is the athletic world too soft on kids
mentalities?
“I think in terms of the general population,
participation is huge. It’s something to be
rewarded in terms of people being active and
healthy, because the population is far too
obese. That being said, I don’t think at
sporting events, like in track and field, I don’t
think the 20th kid should get a medal just like
the 1st place kid. I really believe in rewards
based things when it comes to competitive
sports. That’s why they have house league
hockey, for example, where they take the
competitive nature out of it and allow
everybody to participate and have fun; and
having fun is a huge part of sports. But at a
certain level, it needs to be competitive. If
you look at a professional sport, those guys
are having fun, it’s their job and it’s
competitive, and there’s no room for
participation medals and things like that.”
14. Confidence is Key
All three interview subjects
stated that confidence was
a sure sign of mental
strength.
Though Duncan McKie
may have said that
superstars aren’t affected
by trash talk because they
know they’re better than
you, it’s really because their
self confidence doesn’t
allow them to doubt
themselves.
15. Find Your Element
As Mr. Millar said,
anyone can be confident
in their own element.
Give yourself the
opportunity to discover
what you like and what
you do not like, and don’t
concern yourself with
others opinion
Find your element, and
own it!
16. Don’t Let Others Affect You
As Duncan McKie said, you
won’t get affected by others
trash talk if you zone it out.
This ties in to what James
Young said about focus.
“You could be the juiciest,
ripest peach out there; but
there’s still going to be
somebody who doesn’t like
peaches.”
17. Focus Translates to Results
As James Young said, if
you’re focused on a
singular task, you can exert
all of your energy into that
task. Though he may have
been talking about weight
lifting, it easily translates to
the real world.
For example, turning off
your phone to study for an
exam will lead to better
marks; just like not
acknowledging others
opinions of you will lead to
a happier life.
18. Achieving Mental Strength
Focus on yourself; because
those who matter don’t
mind, and those who mind
don’t matter.
Find what you like and
stick to it.
Do not let the opinions of
others affect how YOU live
YOUR life.
Most importantly;
remember to always be
confident in yourself.
19. Personal Mental Strength Throughout Canadian Families
Throughout the course I
found myself doing a lot of
personal reflection
We talked about insecurity
and self confidence
I was teased and ‘chirped’
and I sometimes let it affect
me
Everything we talked about
in the course drew me back
to my mental strength and
my confidence
I realized a lot about myself
throughout the course; and
the biggest thing was that I
am too concerned with
others opinions
This project has helped me
a lot, and I will practice
improving my mental
strength as I take the next
big step in my life.
