Establish a good strong morning routine that you can do daily. This might mean a spending time in meditation, doing yoga, saying prayers or even enjoying great cup of tea or coffee while reading an inspirational book this will set the tone for your entire day. Having a constant positive morning routine will be a good precedent to have a great day.

Your positive outlook is contagious. If you go out and face the world with a smile on your face, you will surely get a smile back. This will serve as a great way to brighten up your mood and therefore your day you might even be surprised that you can have a positive impact on someone else.

However, remember to always be true to yourself and how you are feeling. Let’s say you wake up on the wrong side of the bed and no matter how hard you try, you cannot seem to pick yourself up and be in a good mood. Do not force yourself into having a happy and upbeat attitude at this time. This will make you seem insincere and people will surely notice.  One thing you can do is stop and meditate, go to a quite place in your mind and remember those things that you are grateful for, count your blessings and smile even though it might seem hard at this time, truly smiling can change your heart and help you to erase the bad mood.  Try this the next time you are having a bad day.  It works.

Be one of those persons who chooses to focus on the silver lining in every situation you will not only be happier, but you will be more successful too.

Keep your positive attitude, eventually it will become you.

With this, you will be able to generate a life full of happiness.

Here’s one great poem that I have found… Attitude

“Your living is determined not so much by what life brings you as by the attitude you bring to life: not so much by what happens to you as by the way your mind looks at what happens.” – John Homer Miller

Ask yourself Am I happy with the relationships I have with my family, friends and my job?  Your work place is especially important considering you spend more time at your job then you do at home, realize that if you are unhappy at your workplace no matter how hard you try, there will always be that niggling feeling of dissatisfaction and negativity that will linger on. If you find that you are unhappy with any of your relationships, do some soul searching and figure out if the relationship at your workplace is worth salvaging, if it seems hopeless then maybe you want to kindly walk away from the relationship.

I am not advocating that you quit your job or even walk away from it, unless of course you are in a financial position to do so.  Since the recession is still affecting many of our lives quitting is certainly not an option for most.  A few things that might help you is to make a list of the things that you do love about your job, it might be as simple as; your hours, your benefits, one co-worker.  Once you are to make a list of the things you like or love about your job then focus on those things.

Most people have tendencies to compare themselves to others, know that you are special just the way you and don’t forget to tell yourself that every day, not just once, twice or even three times tell yourself that every time you being to feel negative thoughts creeping in.  Loving yourself is not about being boastful, or even prideful, loving yourself is about accepting who you are and not comparing who you are with others.

“Whenever you’re in conflict with someone, there is one factor that can make the difference between damaging your relationship and deepening it. That factor is attitude.” – Timothy Bentley

Coming next… Qualities that makes you stand out.

Take time daily, weekly to assess yourself and your life and see if you don’t start to notice a difference in you.  Ask yourself how you perceive your being, what you feel and how you act when faced with different kinds of situations. Be honest with yourself even if you might not like the answers to your questions.  That is the only way you can change your attitude. After you have done so, ask yourself what you can do to change your reactions into something more positive and upbeat.

“Whether a glass if half full or half empty depends on the attitude of the person looking at it.” – Unknown

Coming next … Happiness with your friends, family and job.
