Here are ten positive attitude tips on which to reflect, along with some motivational materials and resources that will also be helpful. These positive attitude resources will help you build on, expand, and reinforce the personal benefits of adopting the following positive attitude ideas and concepts:

1) Thoughts, whether positive or negative, tend to attract more of the same. So by dwelling on happy, optimistic, and hopeful thoughts and expectations, you'll increase your tendency to develop and nurture a positive attitude.

2) If you have developed the habit of putting yourself down, either verbally or just mentally, make a conscious effort to STOP doing that IMMEDIATELY! Words, both spoken and unspoken, can have a powerful effect on your motivation, self esteem, and belief in your abilities. Choose your words and thoughts carefully, because they determine your quality of life and the degree to which you'll achieve your potential.

3) Frame every situation in a positive light. For example, imagine how differently you'd perceive an obstacle or a setback if you concentrated on "the solution" rather than "the problem". It's two different sides of the same coin, but one word ("problem") causes you to feel immobilized and victimized, while the other word ("solution") causes you to feel activated and empowered. Try this positive attitude tip the next time you're faced with a problem: Focus on the solution, formulate a methodical plan, and then take step-by-step action to take charge of the situation and overcome it.

4) Practice saying, thinking, writing, and listening to positive affirmations. If injected with emotion and belief, they will energize you, strengthen your confidence, and help you build a positive attitude and develop positive energy toward everything you do.

5) Another important positive attitude tip is to be aware of and try to control your mental and physical environment. Here's a principle you can use to your advantage: Human beings tend to absorb and be influenced by people, images, messages, and other elements of their environment. Therefore, if your goal is to adopt and cultivate a positive attitude, be aware that the people with whom you choose to associate will have a profound effect on how you look at the world and yourself. Furthermore, the TV shows, the newspapers and magazines, the video games, and the movies you choose to focus your attention on will also cause you to regress or progress toward your goal of developing a positive attitute.

6) Saturate your mind with positive messages about yourself, your world, and your prospects for greater and greater success. The most obvious ways to accomplish that is by reading positive attitude books, listening to positive attitude CD's, and focusing on messages that build and reinforce a positive attitude toward yourself, your career or business, and your relationships. A few more ideas for reinforcing these positive attitude tips is by creating a collage, a journal, or a blog in which you develop your own list of positive attitude tips, resources, and strategies.

7) Make it your mission in life to continually improve yourself, BUT recognize that you're "only human" and that you'll sometimes fall short of your mark or just plain fail or screw up. The important thing is to continually pick yourself up, forgive yourself for being imperfect and flawed (everyone is both those things), and refocus your attention and energies on where you want to be in five years or five minutes!

8) The most effective way to live your life is by paying attention to the present moment. Dwelling on past mistakes or worrying about problems that might or might not happen in the future will only serve to distract you and sap your energy.

9) Strenghten your self esteem by consistently making an effort to do your best, look your best, and expect the best. By taking pride in your appearance, your work, and your ethics, you'll be sending a strong message to yourself (and others) that you're a high-quality person who projects positive energy to themselves and to others.

10) Decide what you want out of life, set goals, and take concrete steps, every day, to move closer to and realize those goals. Writing them down, reviewing them every day, and visualizing them, all help in translating them into reality and propelling you forward toward other goals, aspirations, and desires. Cultivating a positive attitude and being committed to thinking, acting, and living in a positive way will enrich your life and the lives of everyone with whom you come in contact.
