Rantings and ravings of the only person left who really cares

Positivity

The power of a positive being or the power of being positive.

I have been thinking about the power of being positive. I myself tend to see things in a “cup is half empty” veiw. However I have slowly started to notice the people in life that “think they can” usually end up doing it. For example a friend of mine is starting a company in a business that has a high profit possibility but also a high level of dedication. I myself have fancied starting my own business but never quite push hard enough to get it past the first year or so.

To be better in the next year I have came up with some pretty good idea’s that I will turn into goals.

GOALS

  1. Have faith – Pray for Miracles.

  2. Be supportive of others, enjoy their success.

  3. Build capable, qualified team of support to promote my progression.

  4. Work to acheive a attainable goal for future revenue

  5. Create Multiple Streams of Income.

My ideas goals ect are not unlike others I am sure that we as humans all desire the good life and are working towards it. If anyone has any ideas that can keep motivations high please let me know.

In psychology and cognitive science, the positivity effect is the tendency of people, when evaluating the causes of the behaviors of a person they like, to attribute positive behaviors to the person’s inherent disposition and negative behaviors to situations surrounding the behaviors. The positivity effect is the inverse of the negativity effect, which is found when people evaluate the causes of the behaviors of a person they dislike. Both effects are attributional biases.

The term positivity effect also refers to age differences in emotional attention and memory. Studies have found that older adults are more likely than younger adults to pay attention to positive than negative stimuli (as assessed by the dot-probe paradigm and eye-tracking methods). In addition, compared with younger adults’ memories, older adults’ memories are more likely to consist of positive than negative information and more likely to be distorted in a positive direction.
