When I was younger I heard the question: "Do you think the glass is half empty or half full?" I answered "Half full." Being positive is a very important aspect of life, here are 8 benefits of living a POSITIVE life:
1. POSITIVE people who regularly express POSITIVE emotions are more resilient when facing stress, challenges and adversity. (Several Studies)
2. POSITIVE people are able to maintain a broader perspective and see the big picture which helps them identify solutions where as negative people maintain a narrower perspective and tend to focus on problems. (Barbara Fredrickson)
3. POSITIVE people aren't negative! That means they are enjoyable company.
4. POSITIVE emotions such as gratitude and appreciation help athletes perform at a higher level. (Heartmath.org)
5. POSITIVE, optimistic sales people sell more than pessimistic sales people. (Martin Seligman)
6. POSITIVE work environments outperform negative work environments. (Daniel Goleman)
7. POSITIVE People Live Longer – In a study of nuns, those that regularly expressed POSITIVE emotions lived on average 10 years longer. (The Nun Study)
8. POSITIVITY is contagious!
Live a POSITIVE life!
