Positivity goals!

I can be extremely negatively-minded at times, so I swore to myself a few days ago that I was going to be more positive... and it hasn't worked, so here I am giving myself a (much needed) kick up the bum! :P

So, everyday from now on, I'm going to attempt to have a positive message or quote up on one of my (many) whiteboards (see below), and hopefully share some here every now and again!

To start me off, here's the quote I chose to use today:

I love this!!
Positive vibes are good!!  ;D ;D
I'll kickstart this with one of my favourite all time quotes. It involves being a pineapple. It simply goes "Live life like a pineapple. Stand tall, wear a crown on your head and be sweet inside"
Light up the world, be positive!  ;D
"Live life like a pineapple. Stand tall, wear a crown and be sweet on the inside"

"May you grow up to be righteous; may you grow up to be true. May you always know the truth and see the lights surrounding you. May you always be courageous, stand upright and be strong"

"Be fearless in the pursuit of what sets your soul on fire"

If you write a positive number on a whiteboard for a joke, I'm angry-reacting

Otherwise, fantastic idea :)

I like that one! I saw it somewhere recently as well! :D

That is tempting but I'll leave the joking to the jokesters d:
Thanks! :)

I'm not near my whiteboard at the mo, so I've chosen to use my laptop's sketchpad to do today's quote- and I thought to share it as encouragement to not only me, but everyone else :)

What a great idea, Insanipi!

This is one of my goals too. I have a calendar with a positive quote for each month. I’d also recommend the extension ‘Momentum’ for Google Chrome, which displays a new quote at the bottom each day. :)

Yay for sharing the same goal! :P
I discovered Momentum last year, but my old laptop couldn't handle loading it, so I disabled it- I should have a crack at it again! :)

Just dropping off today's quote:
A good laugh is sunshine in the house.-William Makepeace Thackeray

I really like this one! ;D

I don't remember where I saw this (also I'm not sure if it counts as positivity but I guess it's about fear of failure so...) but one that really stuck to me was:

You'll regret whether you do it or not, so just do it and regret it!

I've had a fairly crappy morning/early afternoon, so to keep myself going, here's my day's quote:

I don’t know how I haven’t seen this thread until now. It’s probably cause I’m spending less and less time on AN and just ocassionally come back to lurk around. But, anyway this is an amazing thread. It feels like I need something like this personally since I always think negatively. Instead, I deal with negativity by eating my sorrows away with sugary food and junk food. That’s probably not the best habit to have.

It's been ages since I've posted here!

Instead of a quote today, I went for a walk down Royal Parade/Sydney Road after studying (came in really early (read as- I got to uni before the library even opened) to study because I have a test on Wenesday) to clear my head, as I've been über stressed as of late (resulting in some very irrational actions on my part), and it was nice.

I highly recommend walking down a tree-lined path, it's pretty and fairly peaceful! ^_^

To reduce the stress and somewhat negative feelings I have around my exams, took some time out to have lunch with mum, and then again some time off to play at the park with my youngest siblings when they finished school. :D

100% feel much better rn as a result! ;D
