< Go Back Ten tips to help you feel more positive and achieve greater results Posted: Sep 2, 2014 Tip 1 - Focus on solutions not problems.
When something bad happens to us it is easy to focus on the problem and how bad it is. We say things like it s not fair - why does this always happen to me? or this is impossible, there s nothing I can do about it , and the more we repeat these negative thoughts to ourselves the more debilitating they become. These helpless thoughts then produce negative energy which builds and builds until we can see nothing but the problem and become incapable of doing anything about it.
Over the next two months why not try changing your viewpoint and attitude by focusing on solutions rather than problems? Think of your problems as challenges to be solved and then focus positive energy into finding solutions. Even if a problem seems insurmountable say to yourself I don t yet know what the answer to this challenge is but I m sure I can find one. After all, there s always something I can do to change the situation.
Remember, you can never change something that has already happened so why waste your energy worrying about it? Instead, focus all your efforts on finding a course of action that will take you forward into a positive situation and give you back control of your life. Once you are able to focus on solutions rather than problems you ll find your whole life changing and becoming more positive, more productive and more rewarding.
