21 Days to Developing a Positive Attitude Habit
This kind of perspective on life is something you can acquire, but it must be deliberately ingrained in your day-to-day activities.
It's likely common knowledge that it takes approximately 21 days to break a habit and form a new one. If you find yourself thinking negatively about life all the time, you may replace this way of thinking with a new positive attitude habit!
Here's a 21-day, five-step programme to help you go from a negative mindset to a happy one.
1. Make conscious effort to control your thoughts.
Making this decision takes time and occurs moment by minute. Establishing this as a habit will take time. How do you manage to do this? Instead of thinking negative thoughts, decide to think positive ones.
The decisions you make about what to believe and feel ultimately come from you. Acknowledge this and spend the day thinking only positive thoughts.
Finding anything positive may first require some self-force. Write down one positive thing in your life every day for three weeks, if you choose to keep a journal. Subsequently, consider these gifts rather than negative ideas.
2. Go over motivational readings.
Think positive thoughts all of the time during this 21-day training cycle. The Bible is the most valuable book in all of literature. It is the best book to read. Until you open its covers, you won't know what fantastic outcomes from reading it are waiting for you!
3. Give others your attention.
Make a special effort to assist others during the following 21 days. You'll benefit more than you think if you focus on helping others. You won't even be considered affluent if you manage to accumulate wealth yet maintain lousy connections!
Thus, during your 21 days of developing your new positive-attitude habit, pay particular attention to others. By doing this, you'll have more space for the happiness butterfly to unexpectedly rest on your shoulder.
4. Seek out the medical attention you need.
Neglecting your physical requirements makes it difficult to stay in a happy frame of mind. Thus, make an extra effort to consume wholesome, balanced meals over the 21 days of your attitude retraining.
Ensuring that you are receiving enough sleep is crucial because inadequate sleep can also be a major obstacle. Also, remember to exercise frequently enough. Take a vigorous 30-minute stroll when you're feeling depressed. You'll experience renewed energy!
5. Acquire fulfilment
Concentrate on what you have rather than what you lack for the next twenty-one days. Appreciate your blessings and live in the now.
Forget about buying things to stay up with the crowd. That simply makes them feel more anxious. Instead, express gratitude for what you already have.
Recall that hardships can sometimes serve as a disguised blessing.
These lessons can become qualifications that let you support people during difficult times.
Thus, avoid letting negativity destroy your life now and in the future. Rather, develop a new habit of being upbeat. You won't witness consistent changes in your thought process for around 21 days, but the effort will be worthwhile!
Decide when your attitude-renewal journey will begin, then go for it!
