We sure could use more of them.
We love to hang around them.
They make us feel better and often cheer us up. Just by being around them.
Positive people are so wonderful.
There appears to be so much negativity in the world, often in the media and it is infectious, making the world a far more dangerous place. Unfortunately some feel that negativity sells.
Even if it does, and it makes the world a worse place, should you make money off of it?
Positive people are so often thinking in the positive. They see the same things we do but place a very different and honest spin on it.
A writer at psychologytoday.com educates, “Some positive psychologists suggest that we should seize the day and live in the moment. Doing so helps us be more positive and avoid three of the most infamous emotional states, which I call the RAW emotions: regret, anger, and worry.”
Good to know.
One of the most beautiful and intelligent women that we love to follow online is the former New York Jet’s cheerleader, Nikki Delventhal.
Nikki, please chare some of your positivity.
At her website nikkidelventhal.com she smiles, “Hi, I’m Nikki Delventhal! I live in a 2006 Toyota Prius full-time, with my dog, Camper! I’m a hiker, adventurer & outdoor enthusiast. Formerly a full-time Wilhelmina NY model, celebrity hair stylist, NFL cheerleader & fitness instructor in NYC.
I traded in the “glam” for full-time travel! Since 2015, I’ve been a seasonal tour guide for teens in over 20 different countries (+solo traveled to 55+ countries) & have been traveling & working remotely ever since! I’ve explored the world, especially the USA, inside & out & have a passion for finding off the beaten path places.

You have to be extremely positive to live out of your car.
Nikki does it so well.

Positive Attitudes Bring About Positive Results
By Rick Dayle
We’ve all heard about the power of positive thinking, and many have really tried to think positively but may not have noticed the results they desired. Read on and see how positive attitudes can bring about positive results.
A Positive Attitude Doesn’t Mean Ignoring the Obvious
Some people would like you to believe that you can change the world by merely pretending that everything is wonderful, no matter how bad your situation is. Positive thinking isn’t ignoring the obvious, but ignoring the obvious can be detrimental and demoralizing.
Positive attitude is instead, a process of finding something positive in every situation, even the bleakest. Looking at the positive side will usually allow you the clarity of thought to find new ways to move out of bad situations into better ones, and eventually to good or great situations. Conversely, looking at the negative side of a situation blocks creativity and thought, and generally leads to more negative situations.
Benefits to a Positive Attitude
Positive thinking brings about benefits that you wouldn’t at first imagine. A mental attitude that expects good or favorable results helps mould our behavior towards activities that create a positive environment. Generally, a positive mind anticipates happiness, joy, health and success in whatever endeavor you attempt. When you do encounter less than favorable circumstances, you will find you are more resourceful than someone that does not have a positive attitude, thereby helping insure your success.
Henry Ford was known to say “Whether you think you can or think you cannot, you are right.”
This particularly rings true when it comes to keeping a positive attitude.
Beyond Mere Attitude
Actually, calling attitude “mere” may be doing it disservice, as your attitude is the result of quite a number of factors, the least of which may be your conscious actions. However, it is clear that your conscious actions greatly affect your attitude. While you may not think so at first, you CAN affect your attitude through some very powerful tools that are relatively simple and easy to implement.
First, watch yourself and see how you talk. Back in the early or mid ’90s, I attended a series of lectures by Gregg Braden, and one of the things he brought up during one of the breaks was the concept of positive speech. With positive speech, you make statements that are positive in relation to what you do, want or need, instead of negative ones. This deliberate speech moves you to a more positive way of being that can radically affect your attitude. Yes, they are a form of affirmation. I was particularly interested in a habit he had of “canceling” phrases we use every day. Whenever he would say something that could be interpreted literally, such as “I laughed so hard I nearly died”, he would follow it with “cancel that thought” as soon as he realized it could have been mis-interpreted. If you say “I want this thing” the universe allows you to want, instead of helping you provide it. If, as you watch yourself, you find that you are using a lot of phrases that could be considered negative, try to change how you speak. Every little change you make in turning your speech positive will help improve your attitude, and that will help make your life more positive.
Changing Your Life With a Positive Attitude
As you change your speech, you will find your attitude improves. To further help, try to avoid the habit of complaining about what isn’t right, or isn’t going the way you wish it would. The universe interprets your statements as statements of fact. If you state things in a positive manner as if they have already happened, they are much more likely to happen. On the other hand, if you continually dwell on the negative side, and complain (especially to others you think may share your pain), you only reinforce those negative actions and bring more of them to yourself. A positive attitude begins with positive speech. By avoiding speaking negative things, you can lessen the power you give to the negative and begin to move you energy to the positive. With each negative you no longer express, and each positive thing you do express, the closer you get to a better, more positive attitude, and with it, a more positive life.
I have seen many cases in my own life where the above concepts were proven true and effective, and watched others descend into relative pits of negativity because they were apparently unable to accept that positive speech and actions could make even the smallest change in their situation. I have personally been in more than one situation where I could find little positive to see, and had to be reminded by someone else outside of the direct effect to see even the smallest positive. Once I did find the first positive element, then built one upon another and before long I was out of the negative pit and back with a positive attitude.
The universe operates much as if it were this immense conscious computer, and our speech and attitude were the programming that determined what was to come. How and what we think has a profound effect on our individual future.
As a parting comment, I again repeat the words of Henry Ford:
“Whether you think you can or think you cannot, you are right.”
