Optimism is a form of positive thinking that includes the belief that you are responsible for your own happiness and that more good things will continue to happen you in the future. Positive thinking is not accepted by everyone. Some, consider it as nonsense, and scoff at people who follow it, but there is a growing number of people who accept positive thinking as a fact and believe in its effectiveness.

Use positive words when talking

If you constantly say “I can not” you could convince yourself that it's true. Replace negative words with positive ones. Tell yourself that you do everything possible to have a happy relationship, tell yourself that you do everything possible to have a brilliant career, tell yourself that you do everything possible to keep you in shape

Remove all the feelings that are not positive

Do not let negative thoughts and feelings conquer when you have a bad mood. Even if for a few hours a day, remove negativity and focus on the positive things in your life.

Use Words that evoke strength and success

Fill your thoughts with words that make you feel strong, happy, having control over your life. Make an effort to focus on these words rather than the ones that suggest failure or incompetence.

Analyse what went wrong

Positive thinking is not about denying that nothing can go wrong. Instead take the time to see what went wrong and what led to the current situation in order to avoid future mistakes and look forward more positive.

Think of a failure as an opportunity

Sometimes the most negative things in our lives give us opportunities that we may not have seen otherwise. For example losing your job can be a good opportunity to open your own business or go back to school!

Working at your imagination/ visualization

Visualizing what you want to achieve or the person you want to be can be a great motivation to take you there and make you think more positively about the distance that you have until the destination.
