If your posture and your attitude exude confidence, you will not only feel good, you will look good. You will live a high quality life. You aren’t naïve believing the world and everything in it to be perfect. Yet you believe that people tend to find what they are looking for. If you concentrate on the bad and what doesn’t work and what isn’t beautiful and how everything isn’t quite to your liking that’s what you’ll find. If you concentrate on the good, you will find much more to smile about. It is a conscious choice to view your world as pleasant. You can choose to see the good in people. It is a conscious choice to see the good in others. This is what it means to have a positive mental attitude. Be hopeful.
The great books, great biographies, great quotations, great speeches have stood the test of time for a reason. Inspire yourself. Study them.
