A Positive Life Requires Daily Work

According to researchers Zarghuna Naseem and Ruhi Khalid (2010), we must make looking positively at life a priority because stress can be less threatening. Moreover, how do we go about living a positive life? A question we all should ponder. Busy lives cause our daily tasks to be challenging and tiresome. We must look at how to incorporate routines that increase our focus on elevating our mental health. An occasional book, walk, mediation, or hobby is not enough. 

Positive thinking increases the ability to deal with stressors effectively and causes many successful health outcomes. Let us elevate our practices in our daily routines to plan how to live a life that provides moments of happiness. We must restructure our lives in ways that allow for a stream of positive emotions and experiences. Most of us want to be around to see our children have children. We exercise our bodies to be physically fit. It is equally important to train our brains to handle stress by being intentionally positive and happy.
