How to stay positive during tough times?

Being Positive has a lot to do with our attitude and little to do with the situation we face.For example,let's say that you came to work one day and the moment you stepped into the office a coworker frowned at you and didn't even bother to say ''good morning'',So how would you react to that?

Your answer declares your attitude & different people have different attitudes towards the same experience some get angry while others stay calm and deal objectively with the problem.

Now,Let's return to our question How can i stay positive during tough times? .
Usually we feel stressed when we face problems or new situations & the key to maintain a positive mental attitude is to learn to handle those problems and situations in a way that helps you stay focused on what you want so here are a few suggestions to help you do so:
1)Stay calm!
The moment you panic you instantly lose focus and become reactive & emotional .So in order to remain positive try to stay calm by taking few deep breaths.

2)Step out! .
As long as you are inside the''problem zone'' you can't see the problem for what it really is, so you have to disconnect 1st then solve it.

3)Is it a problem or  a challenge?
When you view the problem as a problem then you will be in a negative mood but once you realize that this problem is nothing but a challenge that dares you to overcome it your attitude will change drastically.
.
4)Use Affirmations.
Affirming to your self in your mind or verbally that you can do it is a major step towards overcoming it because it helps you stay focused on the solution Not the problem.

5)Take a break!
True,if you feel over stressed then maybe it is a time for a short break in which you can read your goals and visualize them  and see how far you have come in terms of achieving that goal.

These steps I've given to you are powerful even though they're so simple and straight forward but keep in mind that none of these things will help you unless you're willing to change  and adopt new ways of thinking and seeing things from a new perspective.
