accentuate the positive, deemphasize the negative(be less cynical;a realist with deliberate optimism thrown in.)

has become my life long goal.It is worth it.It is worth it.

Today i was totally unhappy with one of my subordinates.Inefficiency and attempts to shift burdens and all that stuff.I decided to remember his positive things and tried to help myself.

When the risk of failure is high ,accentuate the negative.When the risk of failure is low ,accentuate the positive.Any comments?

A friend in politics asked me what to do when others praise you on the face and criticize at your back.I told her to ignore such people and pay them little attention.Any comments?

I know this world is full of positive as well as negative things.I have decided to give more emphasis to the positive thoughts,emotions and developments and less on the negative counterparts.This enables me to be more productive and less stressed.
