How to be more positive by It

"Faith in God helped me see that He will take care of all worries and concerns I have: He has already planned to give me so many beautiful things and amazing experiences that I have no other option but to be extraordinarily optimistic!"

How I did it: Through another goal: fight the urge to run when things get difficult. When you go through tough times, stick it out, and you will see first-hand that everything eventually turns out okay. So how can you NOT be positive that things will turn out for the best?

Lessons & tips: Pray! Even when you can't, all you need is faith that He is listening. He's already planned it all out for you, for life to make you stronger and grow in faith, hope, and love.

"...in our prayers we always try to say where we have erred, and what we should like to happen to us. But the Lord already knows all of this, and sometimes asks us only to hear what the universe is telling us. And to be patient."

- Paulo Coelho, The Fifth Mountain

Here is what pulled me out of negativity:
  1. Friends who could help me see that faith in God is all I need. 
  2. The risk you need to take to trust in others, for they are the instruments through which His light shines through. Realize that though there is potential for great hurt, without that risk, there is no potential for great love.
