Brain Training For Success – Lesson 1.4 – How To Maintain A Positive Mindset When You Don’t Feel Like It

Welcome to Lesson #4 of the Brain Training for Success course!

In the last lesson, you learned about the importance of a positive mindset and used gratitude as one way to affect your mindset in a positive way. However, a positive attitude can be more challenging to maintain on some days than on others.

The good news is, you can maintain your positive mindset even when you don’t feel like it.

When you face challenges, or feel overwhelmed by your responsibilities, it can be difficult to maintain a positive attitude.

So try these techniques to uplift your mood and experience the inner peace you deserve.

Start Your Day With Something Positive

Decide each morning that you’ll start the day headed in the right direction. Instead of waking up on the wrong side of the bed and setting the stage for a grouchy day, resolve to experience something positive first thing in the morning.

Develop a morning routine that you can repeat daily to ease into your day’s responsibilities. Determine what activities help lighten your mood and put you on the path to positive thinking. Find two or three things you can do each morning that’ll set the stage for a successful day. As these become habit, add to the routine little by little.

A routine will help your body and mind settle in and focus on what you need to accomplish. Instead of rushing around or forgetting important details, your plan will guide you through a peaceful set of steps that calm your mind and create unstoppable momentum.

Set Exciting Goals

If you wake up each morning with nothing to look forward to, your mind may quickly latch onto negative feelings that can last throughout the day.

Give your life focus by setting goals that motivate and excite you. Write those goals down and review them every day. Each day, take some small action that brings you closer to attaining your goal.

Set aside a few minutes this week to write down all the reasons why each goal is important to you. How will you feel when you reach the goal you’ve set? How will your loved ones be affected? How will your quality of life improve?

Spend a few minutes each day reading through this list. A big enough “why” can help you to overcome obstacles that are in your way.
