I have to say that I agree.

If there wasn't a negative, there would be no positive.

I think it's hard to find someone who is positive all the time. Being humans, we are prone to negativity when life presents us with situations that we aren't too pleased with.

But in general, there are many "positive people", people who generally believe in the power of positivity and the benefits of such thinking. I believe that being positive isn't about being in denial of negative things.

Be positive about the big picture but be negative in the details. Let me give an example, I am positive that my holiday trip will be an awesome and fun adventure. But I have to be negative about getting pickpocketed, about getting my air flight delayed, about being cheated while in a foreign land.

These "negative" issues actually prepare me for such cases and what can I do when I run into them. You never want to assume everything will go well and nothing bad can happen, life happens, shit happens and when it does, you know you have done the necessary preparations for it. So I firmly believe that being positive and negative at the same time is actually possible and in reality, a better choice.

Positive people are out there. They're just hard to find if you don't know where to look. I have a group of friends: all of whom are exceptionally positive in nature, and I am too. We all agree that we tend to avoid negative people -- based on body posture, look on face, and the overall impression we get of the person from the way they speak, etc.

It's all an effort to protect that positive attitude that my close friends and I possess. So you'll have a hard time finding positive people who want to hang around you, unless you yourself have the same mindset.

It's a tough road, but ridding yourself of negativity is worth it.

Listen to some Tony Robbins and "change your state."

I agree. Proactive is exactly what I mean. I want to find people to surround myself with who want to actually do something about the problems they have. Or if it's something they can't control, accept it.

Accepting everything that's bad rather than trying to change it is not a great way to live either. What I really don't like though is the victim mindset and hearing people complain about things that can't be changed and need to simply be accepted. Who spend the whole day complaining about every single little thing rather than having some gratitude. Or complaining about something but refusing to take responsibility for their part in it and do something about it. Or always thinking and saying negative things about practically every person they come across.

Every so often I come across someone who is more of a 'accept what can't be changed, change what can be changed' type, and it's absolutely wonderful, and I'd like to make more friends like that.

For God's sake - you think 'TOO' much hehehe ... enjoy yourself. One little negative remark isn't going to take you to hell -- I guess zen is saying Live in the world but not in it ..or something like that .. I enjoy your post.

In my experience 'overly positive' people often aren't being real. I do know a few genuine and realistic 'balanced' positive people.

In bad days, there might have something negative hidden in unconscious mind of the positive people. But their positive attitude wipes away those negative ideas. Ya, there obviously are positive people for real.

The most successful people in the world are those who maintain a positive outlook even as failures arise, and as a result, keep trying until they succeed. For this reason, yes I do think it is necessary to remain positive in order to become successful. However, not all "positive" people see "success" in the same way as other people. Studies have shown that the happiest people on the planet exist in cultures that don't put such great value on material things as we do here in North America. In fact, Buddhists maintain that to achieve "Nirvana" (ultimate happiness), you need to free yourself from all attachments, material and otherwise. There may be a lot of "successful" people who appear negative, but that is likely because psychologists have found that when you equate happiness with money, once you have reached a certain income level, you start to compare your life with the lives of those in similar income brackets or higher - and you're once again unhappy with what you have. Success, to me, is creating wealth as a means to an end in order to create freedom. And staying positive is most definitely the key to getting there, in my opinion.

It may be hard to be 100% positive, but one should strive to be nice. You never know what someone is going through.

A true "positive" person is one who can still be positive even if the situation is not so good, he is also one who can inspire people to be the best that they can be. If that "positive" person is a bum or a happy-go-lucky guy who doesn't know what he wants out of life then he isn't really a positive person. It's a good thing there are still people on this planet who are really "positive" people...they inspire greatness in others.

Positivity exists on a sliding scale, and we're all on that scale, somewhere. What you should be concerned about is what direction you are moving, rather than your exact point on it. Definitely thinking positively takes practice.. and of course.. when you are working on it specifically, you'll notice those lapses even more. Try not to dwell on them.

The best thing for a bad day is rolling up your sleeves and working on something you care about and can get some results with.

I think positive people are real. I like this kind of people. People who are positive can succeed in life easily. They do not suffer from lack of confidence.

glavilla

Not all people are the same, There are people good in front of you and when you are not around they are talking against you. So I would say that not all positive people are real.

ih8themall

No one can be positive 100% of the time. However if someone tried, I would say it was disingenuous.
