Understand that the past does not equal the future.
-
- Use positive affirmations. Write down short statements that remind you of what you're trying to change about the way you see the world. Put them in places where you'll see them every day, such as on your bathroom mirror, the inside of your locker, on your computer monitor, and even taped to your shower wall. Some affirmations to start with are:
- "Anything is possible."
- "My circumstances do not create me, I create my circumstances."
- "The only thing I can control is my attitude towards life."
- "I always have a choice."
- "I choose to live my positive side of life."
-
Remember that life is short.
-
Count your blessings
-
No matter how odd this may sound, listen to optimistic music (that you like) and read books that have at least a little optimism in them.
-
Use quotes to remind yourself how to be optimistic
-
Smile every chance you get. Even a fake smile will lighten your mood and give you a new perspective.
