Care to Know Why I Believe the World Needs More Genuine Positivity?

Because positivity is an attitude that can create empowering change for everyone. Why did I start writing about Positivity every week over 9 years ago? Because one Monday, I noticed that every single post from all my friends on social media was negative. Everyone was either expressing concern about ongoing problems in the world at large, personal issues, hatred of Monday and the work week, and so on. A wave of negativity that was akin to sinking to the bottom

How is Positivity Not the Same as Positive Thinking?

Because genuine, non-toxic positivity isn’t just thought. In my quest to better myself and live my life as fully as possible. I’ve listened to and read numerous self-help, empowerment, manifestation, and similar books, audiobooks, podcasts, and the like. I’ve read, analyzed, and even absorbed a wide range of information – both useful and less than useful. My studies have included the spiritual, philosophical, psychological, educational, scientific, and everything in between. A key trope I’ve seen over and over again in

I Didn’t See That Coming

I didn’t see that coming – but can I choose positivity over negativity for this? Things happen outside of our control every single day. Most are majorly insignificant. Getting cut-off in traffic, having someone hold an elevator for you, unexpected text messages, learning your favorite actor is in a movie, sudden downpours, and so forth. No big deal, these things are frequent occurrences. Some are annoying, frustrating, irritating, and negative. Others are pleasing, encouraging, helpful, and positive. Either way, they

Positivity is a Steppingstone

Life happens one step at a time. Every instance of positivity is a steppingstone towards improvements. In the middle of an ongoing pandemic; in the face of uncertainty on almost every imaginable level – we NEED positivity. Every little bit counts. Why? Because even a moment of positivity can be a steppingstone to improve life. I know that the notion of the power of “positive thinking” has been wildly abused over the years. When you mention this, or positivity for

How to Make Monday YOUR Day

Today will be whatever you make it be. It’s far too easy to approach Monday and the traditional start of the work week with distress, trepidation, displeasure, and unhappiness.  There is an entire culture of Monday woe in this society, which has been and continues to be capitalized on, and as such gets reinforced. Does anyone want Monday to suck?  I am pretty sure the answer is NO.  I don’t really know anyone who wants to be miserable, who wants

Five Quick-and-Easy Positivity Generators

Everyone prefers to feel good over feeling bad. Finding positivity is about finding ways to feel good.  We live in a society that feeds on a steady diet of negativity.  Fear is a tool employed by many differently “leaders” to keep people in line, and sensationalism sells and gets more clicks on social media.  This can make it far easier to live in fear and negativity than to find positivity. Also, it’s Monday…so most of us are going to work

Where can you find Positivity?

Positivity can be found anywhere we look. There are all sorts of thing, big and small, that can bring about positivity.  Sometimes they are easier to see than others. We are alive and breathing.  We have amazing technology at our fingertips.  We are capable of loving and being loved.  We can have, do or be pretty much anything we desire.  There is sky above us and earth beneath our feet. I know that it can feel like an impossible struggle

How to Build Positivity: Getting into Better Shape

Taking steps to get in shape can generate massive positivity. Getting in shape can also take a number of different forms.  Health is not simply measured as physical, but also mental, spiritual and emotional.  Giving attention to any one of these can improve our quality of life and be massively positive, while working on more than one or all of them can be hugely empowering. Everyone is familiar with processes for getting into shape physically.  Diet and exercise, skin care,

Positivity: Fresh Air

Cliché though it may be, there is nothing like fresh air to clear your head. I like to take a few minutes during my work day to get a sun/air break.  Step outside, get some fresh air, escape the stale office air and my computer. There is something cleansing, both physically and emotionally, in breathing in fresh air.  It awakens the senses, it rejuvenates the soul, it opens us up to possibilities. I know that this is super-trite, but I

Positivity: Joy

Joy is one of the ultimate expressions of love. We tend to not do nearly enough things that bring us joy.  We believe the lie that joyful things should only come in small doses, and that it is a limited achievement that should be particularly savored. Why is this true?  Because we have accepted it as so.  Yet, really, it is not the truth.  Joy can and should be one of the driving motivations for everything we do. Are we
