Hi everyone,
As previously mentioned (see the previous post here), anyone can harness the power of a positive mental attitude. Here are a few tips to help you develop and maintain a positive outlook.
1. Surround yourself with other positive people
Your friends have a big influence on your mindset. Would you rather be around people with a negative attitude who loves to complain? Or would you rather be surrounded by vibrant, happy people who lift you up?
Positive people’s emotions rub off on you and inspire you to maintain a positive attitude and become a better version of yourself.
2. Do the Inner Work
To maintain a positive mental attitude, you have to do the work. Inner Work™ means reflecting on your inner world so you can relate to the outer world better. This can be achieved through breathing exercises, journaling, or reflecting on your actions.
Looking inward has many benefits. Better relationships with colleagues, increased confidence, and better decision-making are only a few.
3. Practice visualization
A positive mindset attracts positive circumstances. Visualization is a powerful technique that helps you achieve your goals using only your mind.
All you need to do is imagine the best possible outcome in any situation and feel the positive emotion of having achieved it. Successful athletes like LeBron James and Katie Ledecky use this technique to achieve their athletic goals.
4. Meditate
To develop and maintain a positive state of mind, you need to learn how to keep your negative thoughts from controlling you.
Daily meditation helps you let go of negative emotions like worry, fear, and anxiety, and it trains your mind to be grounded in the present moment.
Start cultivating a positive mental attitude
Your success and well-being depend on your mindset.
A positive mental attitude at work can bring out the best in you. It can supercharge your performance, work relationships, and resilience. The good news is that a positive mental attitude can be cultivated.
If you recognize that you need a change in mindset but are not sure where to start, you’re not alone. LaMoumous Life Coaching Services can provide you with the guidance you need to develop the right mindset for personal and career growth.
Thanks for stopping by.

Love all of these tips! Mindset is truly everything and as you said, it affects every single thing we do in life. So it really matters! I have found inner work to be so helpful and I try to keep healthy boundaries set with those who tend to drag me down mentally.
Wishing you a wonderful rest of your week! 🙂

A few years a ago a friend did me a favour by ghosting me, I realised that she was a very negative person and when I looked back on our friendship she only ever focused on the bad parts of my life, whilst telling me how marvellous hers was all the time. Thanks for linking with #pocolo
