Look up and keep moving forward

The Link Between Positivity and Success

    Have you ever noticed when you're walking that your feet tend to go where your eyes are looking? It's the same with your mental focus and state of mind. When you see someone successful who exudes confidence. They usually have a positive mindset, and they got their success with that mindset. It's the same as you might meet or know people in your life who don't do anything but complain. They can only see the negative things in their life. Every time you see them or talk to them more negative things are happening to them. You are a master manifester, even if you don't believe in manifestation. Your thoughts, beliefs and mindset shape the life around you.

    The link between positivity and success is in plain sight in everyday life. If you are at the base of a mountain and you want to climb it but you keep looking down at your feet instead of up at your goal, you won't make it very far. If you stand there thinking you can't do it, you won't do it. Success is a journey, there are ups and downs but people who succeed in achieving their goals and dreams are the ones who don't let the bumps in the road, obstacles or even their own doubts and fears stop them,

    Many if not all of your favorite authors, actors and musicians pushed through obstacles, and rejections to keep moving forward, even through their own doubts and or fears. If they stopped and believed they couldn't do something they wouldn't be who they are today.

Your life goes where your mind is set.

    Having a positive mindset isn't shallow always happy blind to the whole of reality. Choosing positivity is acknowledging the negatives and continuing on the journey forward either through the doubt and fear, or resetting the path around an obstacle.

    Being positive matters in everyday life as much as it does when you're striving for a goal. If you are negative and believe you can't do something then you definitely cannot do it. If you stay positive you have the mental capacity to overcome obstacles, road blocks, doubt and fear. Being positive shifts, your perspective, improves your relationships, fuels your resilience, and can boost your productivity.

Choosing positivity ...

Shifts Perspective

• A positive outlook helps you see opportunities where others see obstacles.

• It encourages problem-solving and innovation instead of getting stuck in setbacks.

• Example: Entrepreneurs who focus on solutions instead of failures are more likely to bounce back and grow.

Improves Relationships

• People naturally gravitate toward positive individuals.

• Strong, supportive networks often open doors to opportunities.

• Collaboration becomes easier when you’re uplifting instead of draining.

Fuels Resilience

• Success isn’t about never failing, it’s about bouncing back.

• A positive mindset turns “I can’t do this” into “I’ll try a different way.”

• Mindset determines persistence, and persistence often determines success.

Boosts Productivity

• Stress and negativity drain energy and focus.

• Optimism increases motivation and helps sustain momentum.

• Small shifts like starting your day with gratitude can enhance focus and performance.

Whenever a doubt, fear, obstacles or rejection stands in your way for achieving your dream or goal

• Re-center and ground yourself.

• Remind yourself of your goal.

• Reroute you path forward.

    As someone with so much ambition and large dreams I speak from my experience that positivity has been the number one thing to get me to where I am. I may not be where I aim to be yet but I'm on the way. If not for choosing positivity I would have given up on my goals long ago. Thrown out my note books full of book ideas, all of my art supplies. I would have quit making videos. I wouldn't be me.

"Whether you think that you can, or that you can't, you are usually right."

-Henry Ford 

    So I just want to remind you that success is not just about skill or strategy, it’s about mindset and determination. The more positivity you cultivate, the more resilient, creative, and connected you become. Keep moving forward
