Is your glass half full or half empty? What do your thoughts focus on? What you have or what you don't? All the good things in your life, or the bad? Your thoughts create your reality, so focusing on negativity and problems will fill your mind with those. Whereas think positively, focusing on the good things in your life, and looking for the good in every day will fill your mind, and your life, with good things and a happier outlook.
Do you know what happy, successful people think about every day? It’s simple. They think about what they want and how they can get it. Positivity truly can change your life.
When you spend your time thinking and talking about the good things you want from life and how you can achieve them, you will feel happier and more in control. When you think about happy things, your brain releases endorphins, which give you a feeling of well-being. It doesn’t take long to develop a positive attitude.

Research has shown that happy people have one specific quality that enables them to live a better life: optimism. If you’re groaning at the very thought of being positive, stop now. You don't need to worry because optimism can be learned.
It’s all about cause and effect. If you change your way of thinking and become more optimistic, you will start to feel happier and see results.
