Be positive even when it seems bleak

The economy has not really recovered despite many good economic reports. People are still guessing and wondering what are ahead in the next few months or next year.

This will surely lead to more stresses in life as people could be holding back their spending thus curtailing more possible growth in this fragile economy.

Problems like increased stress, fatigue, disharmony, loss of wealth and jobs. That's why it is even more important to adopt a positive attitude if you feel things are not going for you.

I feel it's important to stay positive, and keep a glass is half full mentality. This is true across the board, no matter which line you are earning a living on.

Yes, its even more important to keep the morale high and staying positive is even more crucial then ever. Be a leader among your friends or colleagues and they will look up to you.

If you have lost your job, it's very common to feel helpless and even depressed. This is normal, but it's important that you don't let these feelings affect your efforts to find a new source of income. Letting yourself spiral into a state of depression will only make it harder to get back on top.

If you find yourself struggling to stay positive, another way to help remove some of the stress is to stop watching the news. I admit there are many doom predictors in the media, especially in finance media like CNBC. What they say have a very big impact in our thoughts as we perceive them to be experts. Turn the telly off when you are feeling down.
