Habits that Make You a More Positive Person

Anubhav Kapoor

We keep hearing about the need to become more positive in life.

Tabloid articles and TV programs continuously emphasize upon adopting a more positive mindset. However, most of these mediums seem to preach more and explain little. Here, we are trying to talk about a more practical approach to becoming a better, more positive person. The best way to do this is to inculcate habits that help to develop a positive mindset. Some recommendations for you include:

Stop Being Judgmental About Others

One of the most vital steps towards remaining happier throughout the day and reducing negativity around you is being less judgmental. We often tend to develop a negative opinion about the people around us. Though we hardly express it, we nurture that negativity inside us. A better approach is to believe in the dictum of everyone being responsible for their own actions. Leave their actions and the consequences of the same to destiny. Don’t bother about others and don’t let their presence irritate you.

Always Pamper Yourself, if Possible do it Everyday

The idea of working like a horse throughout the week and binging on the good stuff on weekends doesn’t make a lot of sense if you are prone to harboring a lot of negativity throughout the week. A better approach would be to pamper and reward yourself for the smallest of achievements, on a daily basis. If you have been able to cut down on your sugar intake for the past three days, give yourself a pat on the back and treat yourself with a cookie. If you have been true to your control-smoking plan, gift yourself a new case for your mobile phone.

Exercise Hard & Exercise Daily

One of these easiest, most effective ways of sustaining your positive aura is to exercise hard. Some folks recommend walking or stretching as good exercises. Though there is nothing wrong with this approach, it would be better if you could exercise harder and work-up some real sweat. Strenuous exercising stimulates your body to release more endorphins. These hormones help to neutralize the action of anxiety and stress-related hormones, helping to keep you in a better frame of mind.

Embrace Change as Progression

Most people find it difficult to change their habits, routines or their way of thinking. Human beings have an inherent fear towards things that are different from the usual. This refers to everything from buying your shirt in a shade that you have never worn before or going out of your way to be pleasant to somebody. You can be a more positive person if you accept that for the better or worse, changes are always going to come your way. Thus, you might as well accept them. Once you develop a higher degree of tolerance for changes, most unpleasant moments in life would sting a lot less.

Meditate When Stressed & When Happy

It has been observed that people are prone to using meditation as a short-term means to relieve stress. Such folks are prone to becoming irregular with meditation or foregoing it when they feel better. A smarter approach to becoming a more positive person is look upon meditation as an essential part of your day. Equate it with the need to bathe daily. This will ensure that you are always able to keep the stress away and sustain the feeling of goodness within you.

Dream

Dreams; all of us have our own dreams. Not the dream that we have when we our asleep. But it is the idea we had on our mind that we wanted to happen. Ideas that we always wanted to happen someday. Each of us has our own personal dream. But having a personal dream doesn’t mean that we are the only one who will be enjoying it if it happens. Sometimes we dream not just for our selves, but also for our loved ones.

Everything we had right now comes from somebody else dreams. Maybe someone from the past dreamed about having a light in the dark, and then the bulb was invented.

Dreams are the ideas we had that help us to reach for something we don’t have at the time we are dreaming. Dreams help us to gain what is missing on our lives. Every successful human had a dream before they became successful.

This dreams of us changes as time goes by because we encounter different things that affect our lives.  We may also get affected by the persons we meet or by the environment or community on where we belong. Sometimes what you dream right now doesn’t mean that it is still what you dream for tomorrow. But every individual has a dream, an ultimate dream that doesn’t change whatever happens. An ultimate dream doesn’t change whatever happens, whoever we meet and wherever we go. It is still the dream that we are chasing. Ultimate dreams are the dreams that we had from our younger years. We may dream of it by the time that we are not that matured yet. That is why sometimes we get confused, because when we get matured we ask our selves; Is it still our dream?

By the time we ask our selves that question, you may not realize it, but the answer is just there on the bottom of your heart. It was just covered by the pile of things that we encounter along the way. So maybe you will realize that you are still young. That you are still not that matured to decide or to handle this things. But one day, when you grow much older you will realize that the answer to your question was just right there in your heart. That your ultimate dream still doesn’t change.

But not all of us enjoyed the fruit of their dreams. Or not all of us are living the dream life as they say. Sometimes what happens is that we live in a life that is greater than we expect. We live in a life that is more than of what we dream of.

But of course, before reaching the “cloud 9” we first need to pay the price. We have to work hard for our dream. We have to fight for it.

How about you, what is your dream?

taking chances

Life is like a puzzle. Sometimes it’s hard to figure out the things that you’re dealing with. Most of the time you get confused if the moves that you’re doing is right or wrong. But life is about taking Risks. They say that the greatest risk in life is when you don’t take a risk at all. And yes I believe on that saying, because if you don’t take a risk at all you wouldn’t grow as a person. My father used to tell me that the troubles that we encounter in life are the one that molds as a person. These troubles are the ones that make us stronger if we survived it. As they say,”what won’t kill you will make you stronger. If you don’t undergo this troubles and failures you wouldn’t learn anything in life. You can’t learn everything from the book. They say that the best teacher in life is experience, and yes I can that it is true. In life you couldn’t win every time, sometimes you need to make those mistakes and failures for you to be a better person. But in our society, we have tended to look on the person from the mistakes that they have done in life rather than the things that they have learned from their mistakes. Giving a person a chance to prove that he has changed and learned his lessons is not bad at all; especially if we really know this person from a long time.  Giving them a chance will help them to stand up from the mistakes that they have done. Most of us learned from the mistakes we have made but only few get a chance to prove that they have changed.

Saying yes to life after the storm

Chris Lao want to inform you...about auto insurance

Flood victim Christopher Lao, whose hapless outburst on GMA News programs last August launched an online wave of taunts and satire by social media users, stars in his own commercial which was released on YouTube on Thursday. 

Lao plays himself repeating the same words, including the now-famous quote, "I should have been informed," that he uttered to GMA reporter Jun Veneracion, who is played by an actor in the commercial for BPI.

"This is my way of saying yes to life," Lao told GMA News. "Some good finally came out of this crisis. It became an opportunity. I can now pay for the tuition of my daughter."

Lao is currently studying for the bar exams next month, but took time off to shoot the commercial last weekend. 

The commercial ends with the graphic, "Nature doesn't inform you." BPI used Lao to pitch its auto loans that come with one year free insurance covering acts of nature. In addition to BPI's YouTube channel, the ad is expected to air in cinemas. 

Lao said that the advertising agency McCann Erickson had first approached him in September to sound him out about the ad. He admitted to being uneasy about the idea, but had what he called an epiphany, that "I won't think of what other people say anymore."

The production team that made the commercial showed him video of the news report so he could replicate the emotion of his reaction to the incident. "I was okay na at the time," he said. 

According to Lao, he had gone through a depression after a version of the news report, shortened by a viewer to include just him, was uploaded on YouTube and shared widely, triggering ridicule on Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. The original news story featured other victims of Typhoon Kabayan. Lao had driven his car into a flooded street in Quezon City where it began to drift as a GMA News camera crew was shooting in the vicinity. 

The Twitterworld was buzzing with mostly positive chatter about the ad, including at least one tweep confessing to having a crush on the buff Lao.

Good thing for Chris Lao and he already had a good reason to face the world again after being bullied in the social networking sites and on air.

When would my luck come....sigh........

Song revival

Songs came from poem, but do you wonder how can a writer wrote all this ideas. Probably the idea didn't come from his mind, but from his heart. That's why many songs are revived today with there new arrangements or versions. Our taste in music change as time goes by but the message of the songs that we want to hear doesn't change. We all have experienced extreme emotions only with different settings or situations. Some of us got broke, some got to an accident and some got a broken heart. All this situations give us extreme emotions. But of course extreme emotions are not all negative feelings, there is also the positive one. If you had met the one, or you just passed your Bar or Board exam, or if you are just simply satisfied with what you have right now.

But if you can notice most of the songs that have been revived or had a different versions mostly are about negative feelings. It's maybe because most writers becomes more creative when they feel extreme negative emotions, especially when they have a  broken heart.
