10 Ways to become Optimistic Thinker


1. Define your values & principles. What do you really want out of life? What's important? What gives  you pleasure? Pain?

2. Be willing to change. Have an open and curious mind.


3. Love yourself, respect yourself.


4. Treat others the way you would like to be treated. Your manners will define you wherever you go. Never forget it.
5.Understand that the past does not equal the future. Just because you've experienced pain or disappointment in the past does not guarantee that what starts badly will end badly. Do not make a bad start turn into a self fulfilling prophecy for a bad ending.
6.Use positive affirmations. Write down short statements that remind you of what you're trying to change about the way you see the world. Put them in places where you'll see them every day, such as on your bathroom mirror, the inside of your locker, on your computer monitor, and even taped to your shower wall. 


Some affirmations to start with are:
  • "Anything is possible."
  • "My circumstances do not create me, I create my circumstances."
  • "The only thing I can control is my attitude towards life."
  • "I always have a choice."
  • "I choose to live my positive side of life."
7. While it is true that you create your own circumstances, accept that the past is the past. Don’t let negative circumstances trigger irrational guilt.
The past is the past. It’s over. It’s done. Let it go.
8. Don’t let your negative feelings control you.
9. Avoid negative people. If you can’t avoid them, learn how to not let them get you down.
10. Have faith: If you believe in God then strengthen your faith in him.  If you believe in yourself then learn how to increase this faith.  Whatever the kind of faith you have learn how to increase it and you will become more optimistic. Nothing can make you more optimistic than faith.
