Developing Positivity: 4 Tips for Positive Thinking
“Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words. Keep your words positive because your words become your behavior. Keep your behavior positive because your behavior becomes your habits. Keep your habits positive because your habits become your values. Keep your values positive because your values become your destiny.” -Mahatma Gandhi

People ask me on a regular basis “How is it that you’re always so positive?” Well the truth is that I’m not. Just ask my wife. I face the same trials and troubles that many of you face each day. I have the same ups and downs as many of you. My life is not perfect by any stretch of the imagination. So what’s the difference?

I’m No Expert

There. I said it. And a part of me feels rather free now that it’s out in the open.
But I suspect many of you already knew that. While I have a Master’s degree and a Doctorate’s degree, neither is in psychology, or human behavior, or anything even remotely close to those fields that relate to human cognitive behavior and changing your life.
