Today GenuLines examines how your mental attitude can take some of the bumps out of that road. 

How Your Mental Attitude Helps You Prosper

You’ve heard the one about ‘The Power Of Positivity’ right? Yes, it’s a famous book that made someone famous.
 
And it’s become even more famous because other famous people agree with this famous saying. And they live by it, or at least that’s what they tell everyone that they do.
 
Let’s find out for ourselves.

Being Positive Helps You To Be More Positive

Positivity has a wonderful characteristic. It’s a feedback loop of positivity.
 
When you’re more positive you feel better about yourself and your life. And that positivity builds on itself.
 
 
 
 
Unfortunately, negativity works in exactly the same way. But that’s for miserable people and we’re not going to be like them, are we?
 
To some, this will make complete sense immediately. But I can already hear some ‘Negative Nellies.’ They’re saying, “How can I be positive about my life when it’s so bad?” There’s a simple answer. It’s loved by children, and it’s called ‘Let’s Pretend’.

The Prosperity Of ‘Let’s Pretend’

Your brain doesn’t know the difference between what’s happening to you and what’s imagined. Think about spending all day imagining that everything was great.
 
You felt happy about yourself and your life. You would think that everything was great and that you were happy about yourself and your life.
 
Isn’t that great, and a positive thing to know?
 
But if things aren’t particularly great you can pretend and make your brain think that they actually are. But how does this apply to prosperity?
 
If you feel and think you’re prosperous, who on earth is there to say that you’re not. You might not have the biggest house or newest car.
 
Yet if you don’t need those things to be happy and peaceful in your life, then what do they have to do with true prosperity? If you’re in an internal state of happiness and peace, then you are more likely to be open to opportunities.
 
Your internal state influences your external state. Have a go at making yourself more prosperous by being more positive.
