The Success Syndicate

One of the most powerful habits that I’ve picked up in the past 10+ years is to stop being pessimistic and to think in a more optimistic and constructive way instead.

It makes life feel lighter and not so burdensome.

It opens up new paths towards where you want to go and it helps you to more easily overcome setbacks (and often get something good out of them). You’ll feel less worried and sorry for yourself and more motivated to keep taking action.

So the benefits of optimism are great. (1/n)

Questions like:

How would my best friend or parent support and help me in this situation?

What’s one good thing about this situation?

What’s one thing I can learn from this?

What’s one thing I can do differently the next time to likely have a better outcome?

2. Work out regularly.

When I have a tough time thinking myself out of negative thoughts then a short 20-30 minute workout with free weights can help me to change my headspace.

It is time well spent because it releases so many inner tensions and stress, worried feelings and makes me feel stronger again.

It focuses my mind and when I’m done with the workout then I’m in a much better place to handle what is going on in my life right now.

Once you start practicing , you will eventually learn to think positively (3/n)
