You Have To Train Yourself To Be Positive

Getting Stuck In The Negatives and how to get unstuck..

This is a Tedx talk by Alison Ledgerwood. She gives a wonderful 10 minute talk about why we get stuck and how to become unstuck. In short being positive don't come easy and you have to train yourself to be positive. It takes work and it takes effort to be more positive. Alison talks about just writing what you are grateful for can boost your happiness and your health. I am a big advocate for keeping a journal. I would add keeping an Art journal can also boost your happiness and your health.

Remember bad tends to stick so train yourself to be more positive. If you are having a hard time training yourself to be positive look for a life coach or a trusted friend that can help you train yourself to be more positive.

Here are my simple tips to train yourself to be positive....

1)Be gentle with your self when you catch yourself being negative. 

Training takes time.

2)Actively find things that put you in a good mood every day. Music and art 

are my favorite.

3) Keep a journal. Writing or Art Journals have huge health benefits.

4) Find something new every day. You can add a description of what you

find in your journal.

5) If you are struggling to be positive find a great coach or friend that can help.

Last but not least 

6) Don't take anything personal. This is the hardest tip but if you can 

train yourself to not take anything personal you will find joy

that surpasses all understanding.
