It’s easy to say “be positive,” but the more you apply it constantly, and the more you add a ton of gratitude in the mix, the more you can see the contrast between accepting what is and someone being angry.

I used to be a lot angrier about everything, and I didn’t see it as a waste of time.

The more you dwell on something, the more it demands attention, so you complain even more—the vicious cycle of negativity.

Like money in a savings account, the interest on positivity compounds over time: the more you have and add to the bank, the more it’ll grow.

But that’s also true for negativity. The more you spend without thinking further ahead (like yelling at someone or an event that you often can’t do anything about), the more you’ll become withdrawn and usually empty, just like the account.

Let’s see what we can do and take action instead of whining about all the rest.
