Are you Positive? or in Love with the Thought

I used to like the idea of being positive about everything, but at a point realized that it was just a thought winding in my head. This whole idea of being positive, it was great. But when it came down to actually having to be positive, I’d look at all the bad things and forget about what’s good and by the time I knew it, I was being negative about everything. I’ve lost countless opportunities due to relying on the thought of being positive and not putting into play. It took me a while, but once I realized what the hell was going on, I turned the idea into an action and I’m not saying everything has slid like butter ever since, but it sure does feel good to see the good in every situation.

Some situations can’t be controlled, but the way we react to them can.
