To those whose default setting is a positive mindset, so you find that you only attract good things?

It took alot of therapy and rewiring my brain to stay positive. But I do feel like since im more positive in my mind that I have more positive things happen to me. But its hard work. Its not easy rewiring your brain to think positive.

I’ve always been a glass half full kind of person, my family generally is all the same too so maybe it’s how I was raised a bit. I attract the good and the bad in life but I think I just have better ways of coping with the bad than some. My husband’s work is a pretty negative environment and highly stressful and he always calls me his light and his sounding board. I seem to have a calming effort on stressed people, I was always the mum in the group of friends growing up.

It doesn’t take any real effort for me to stay positive but I do try to avoid overly negative people. I’ve had my fair share of shit times and hardships don’t get me wrong but I don’t dwell on them and I move on pretty fast.

I don’t think positive as a default is a thing, people either work on it daily or their parents were REALLY good at instilling it in them as kids (which means they had to work on it). But yes, when we’re consistently positive, positive things do come to us easier. And our days are better because we aren’t thinking about the bad. It’s not easy to do but definitely worth it❤️ Since you’re asking about it, I’m guessing you want to go down that road, so I seriously wish you the best of luck and an ear if you want to ever reach out to me!

I started out as more effortlessly positive, but life comes for us all in various ways... Along the way some things you get the choice to say yes or no to and others you don't. Even if it does take work to get there, it's worth it, right? Your mind can be a playground or a torture chamber, so don't just sprinkle nails on the ground (to walk over later) because it's too hard to build a swingset. Really, life is too short not to.

My “positive mindset” is really just perspective that whatever happens good or bad it’s all for a purpose in me. And as I’m going through things I’m learning something that will help me down the road. If you can eliminate overly negative people around you or set boundaries with them until you get stronger in your thinking or a handle on your mental health if you need to. I read the Bible to keep this perspective. There’s really comforting scripture that has helped me realize everything that happens has happened before. We’re not alone, nor meant to be alone in this life. And make choices that will help you later on, no matter how you feel in the moment. That reaps blessings. Live with hope💞

I don’t think anyone only attracts one thing- and I don’t believe that we experience only what we attract.

With that said, I do “default” to a more positive and light mindset. It’s my nature, but I also have depression and other challenges that exist alongside that… it isn’t that my experiences are all light or good or positive, but I do have a happy go lucky personality so that’s at the core of a lot even if I’m jaded or going through hard times.

I always say simple minds, simple pleasures lol bc I do take a lot of pleasure in simple things and it isn’t complicated, feeling happy or excited because I got to see cool birds or pretty flowers, or remembered something my grandmother said.

I don’t think having a positive mindset and dealing with a variety of things positive and negative is an unfortunate thing though. I think it reflects the complexity of our environments and decisions across generations.

I'm a positive person now but I spent a lot of time using positive reinforcement to rewire my brain and also seeing a therapist helped as until I had let go of all of the negative stuff (stuff I didn't even realise I was holding on to) before I could actually move on and become who I wanted to be x

I try to be positive and my husband helps a lot with that because he's always been a positive person and what also helps is me being grateful for the small things and moments like yeah my life could be better but it could be so much worse 😭😂

For those who changed their mindset to positive... How?! My brain goes right to negative

Im not positive all the time especially if I dont like something I will complain but even with all that things tend to work out it well in the end.
