Are you a positive person?

[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Are you a positive person? (Page 1 of 2)

Posted: 6/25/2019 8:50:01 PM EDT

I've been trying to be more positive lately and see the bright side of things or good in people. I used to always be negative and pessimistic about everything (runs in my family). It's hard to do but overall I feel a lot better.

Hell no and I'm ok with it.

absolutely.

just dont let yourself be used by those that seek out positives to make a negative.

I'm positive that everything a man does, just goes to shit.

Yes.
For me it’s the best way to live.
My son will actually see me smiling sometimes for no reason and think I am crazy.

Stay positive and good things will happen.
Be negative and bad things will happen.

It’s all about the energy.

I’m negative and pessimistic but have learned to let things go and have learned that things all work out in the end.

This is very true. I know some very negative people and it always seems bad stuff is happening to them. Negativity attracts bad energy.

Absolute nonsense. This mystical idea of "energy" has no basis in science. If someone's life sucks it's because they made it that way or they were unlucky enough to be one of the worlds many involuntary door mats.

I’m generally positive.

There’s a silver lining in just about everything negative. I look for it.

I also try to consider whether or not the negative situation is something I can control or not. If so, work to change it. If not, accept it and move on.

I disagree

Everything is energy

If you are negative about everything then you are going to attract negative things and negative people

Sometimes I do, sometimes I don't.

Sometimes I hate it because I wish I could just "blue pill" myself and sink into glorious blissful ignorance.

Other times I hate everyone else because they aren't negative, and they aren't because they don't see what I see. Or they don't care, whatever. Pisses me off regardless.

Maybe some of them see it, realize there’s nothing they can do about it, and move on without stewing over it.

Being negative about something beyond your control accomplishes nothing.

You buy a quality tire from a reputable manufacturer, rotate them regularly, check the pressure, inspect for damage regularly, but you still get a blow out. You can either get pissed about it and have it ruin your week or you can put the spare on and get on with your life.

You have to look at it as you can't change things or other people. You only have one life, one experience of life, and in that life is your own experiences of what you make them. That's all that really matters.

I used to constantly stew over the state of the country, the world, or people. I'd say the same thing wishing I was ignorant. I'd spend so much time arguing with other people (i.e. liberals) thinking I could change them or make them see what I see. What a waste of time that was.

Just have to move on and find good in things or focus on stuff that you enjoy. I pretty much stopped watching and reading the news, that was a major factor.

I’m logical and realistic. So, no, I’m not a “positive” person. But most people find me to be very stable and level, especially during emergencies/crises, so they feel I’m a positive impact for them.

No, I don't want them to be jealous. I want them to fucking hate me from the very bottom of their souls. I want them to feel the shit I felt.

At the end of the day life boils down to being a death struggle in which you compete with every other living thing in existence for control of resources, whether that be food, power, mates, land, money, etc. Life is a game in which the objective is to take as much as possible from others without allowing them to take from you. I get off on the thought of putting the desirable/powerful/etc. in the place of the loser, the one that struggles to gain an inch instead of having it served to them.

Be positive & happy and it will rub off on others.

The angrier I am and the more I hate myself the better I do. I succeed when I'm down in the ditch. The self hatred and jealous, bitter anger towards others is the most powerful motivator I've ever known.

It's not my business but you volunteered the information and this is simply a random assessment from a stranger on the internet but....

You sound like a supremely unhappy person. I would suggest that it's not a healthy philosophy.

I am, at least when forced to deal with the world. And yes, it's probably not healthy. But damn it's hard to see things any other way.

Define positive. Are we talking personality or HIV? Poll questions could apply to either.

I used to be a positive person. A live altering injury will change that quick.

Quoted:
No, I don't want them to be jealous. I want them to fucking hate me from the very bottom of their souls. I want them to feel the shit I felt.

At the end of the day life boils down to being a death struggle in which you compete with every other living thing in existence for control of resources, whether that be food, power, mates, land, money, etc. Life is a game in which the objective is to take as much as possible from others without allowing them to take from you. I get off on the thought of putting the desirable/powerful/etc. in the place of the loser, the one that struggles to gain an inch instead of having it served to them.
