Think Positive!

Research shows that your performance decreases when you think negatively and have negative visual images. Becoming stressed about a situation doesn't help to improve it; it just makes things worse. Therefore, when you're upset or stressed about something, think positively! Even if things don't get better by thinking positively, at least it'll help from getting worse. Thinking positive helps you physically and mentally. You are more likely to live longer and stay young. This is evident in a research that showed that people who think positively about life tend to live 19% longer than people who think pessimistically.

It's human nature to get upset and stressed over uncontrollable problems, but the important thing is to not let it effect you to the point that it harms you. You should think of these experiences as a stepping stone to your own personal growth and success. You should also be grateful and remember that any problem or difficulty you are facing could have been worse than what you are actually going through. Always remember that a LARGE percentage of the world is probably VERY less fortunate than you. Here are some activities to relief stress and to help you on your way to thinking positively:

1. Live life as it comes, enjoy it to the fullest.
2. Write positive notes to yourself and put it around places that you frequently walk by in your home.
3. Set daily goal for yourself and when you achieve it, you will feel more accomplished, and your level of positivism will increase.
