Daily
life can be hard but those who have a positive personality are likely to go
further than those who don’t. Being positive has significant benefits for your
career and for your psychological well-being. Those who master the art of
looking for the best possible outcomes also come to find that they make friends
easily and are able to move up the career ladder faster than those with
negative dispositions.
Don’t
live by their example. Seek to develop your own positive outlook on life. Doing
so will lead to greater career opportunities and more friends. A positive
personality will help you develop resilience when life does become difficult. Looking
for the best possible outcomes is an exercise of the mind.
Personality has a large impact on whether or not a person is liked by others. For example, teachers who are appreciated by others showed traits of extroversion, conscientiousness, agreeableness, emotional stability, and openness (Eryilmaz, 2014). They were easy to get along with and were generally non-judgmental of others.
We are attracted to people who are positive because they help us feel good about ourselves and the potential of developing relationships. When someone shows a positive personality we trust their judgment. Why not? They like us right? Our assessment of them becomes reciprocal as we feed off of their positive energy.
It is natural that those who can attract other people also attract greater opportunities. Most of us love to work with people who are happy, positive, and feel like they can accomplish anything. We enjoy sharing opportunities with those who help us feel good and appreciate our presence.
Developing a positive outlook requires thinking about all the blessings you have. Gratitude and savoring was a predictor of positive psychological affectivity (Mailolino & Kuiper, 2014). Being appreciative of life, your career, and your opportunities can go a long way in developing your contentment.
Being positive has many benefits for your psychological health as well as your career. Developing a positive way of thinking about yourself, your life, and your prospects impacts not only your opportunities but also the way in which you see the world. Once a positive outlook is mastered you will find yourself creating the confidence needed to tackle any important job task leading to greater performance and more support.

The water in the background looks a little like sparks while the attention is focused on the start itself. The shutter speed could be adjusted to create a different waterfall look.

We
have all met that grumpy person who tears down everything they talk about or
focus on. They chronically complain; food, clothes, job, life, money…anything!
Their negative behavior becomes catchy and the more time you spend with this
person the more likely you are going to start thinking like them.
