Yeah what we really need is critical thinking.
I do strongly believe in maintaining a positive attitude, but it also needs to be based in reality. No amount of positive thinking on my part will reverse the circulation problems I have with my heart condition. I can, however, live the best life that I can within the limits I have now. I can go out for a walk and smile or I can sit at home and complain bitterly that I’m not able to run like others. I know what the healthier choice is.
I agree with this. It’s all about attitude, thinking can change or be flexible. It’s just a matter of emotional control; it can be good or bad. Attitude however is a discipline thing, it’s a strong mindedness of tendencies, both thoughts and behaviour.
Thinking positive has its limits and it can’t cure something like schizophrenia and negative symptoms.
I am not positive philosophically. Life is fraught with tragedy. I try to stay positive about my personal situation and be grateful for the things I have.
