4 Ways To Keep Your Optimism and Motivation For Life Up
Written By: Je’Ana C.
When it comes to the way you view life, it can be a battle between optimism and pessimism sometimes. Most of us will not be able to maintain positivity 100% of the time, and, while that’s not too big of an issue, it is something that we should all be striving for.
It’s quite a subjective topic, but at the end of the day, those with a more optimistic view on life end up the happiest and most successful. It can be debated long and hard, but those with sunnier dispositions win every single time.
You should be looking to view the positives in everything. If you’ve always been quite a negative and pessimistic person, however, then this can be quite a tricky task. Don’t worry, though, it’s not rocket science. Here are some things you can do to make yourself way more optimistic and excited about the life you have ahead of you.

1) Work Hard
If you sit around and mope, then you’re not going to get much done in life – that’s a fact. Things don’t just come to you without any prior effort. If you actually get up and accomplish a task, then you’ll get more of what you want in life. You’ll then feel more excited for the future as you’ll want more of the rewards you’ve received. Putting in the effort also allows your mind to feel accomplished – regardless of whether you got the exact result you were hoping for.
2) Always Plan For Amazing Things in The Future
When you have exciting thoughts about the future, that’s when you get a lot more motivation for life. When there’s nothing at the end of the tunnel, it’s difficult to care about how your life pans out in the short-term. Right now, you’re working hard at your job, with your studies, or with your side-hustle in the hope of getting what you want out of it – if there’s no reward, then it can feel pointless and can make you more lethargic.
If you picture staying in gorgeous countries with luxury apartment rentals available, then you’re going to be more inclined to push on with your work and with life in general. We’ve all felt that demoralizing feeling when motivation completely drops – don’t allow it to hit you again.
3) Keep A Positive Mental Attitude
It’s difficult to do, but once you get going, it’s difficult to stop. A positive mental attitude is something that will pretty much save your life (if you’ve not adopted this mindset at any point). Seeing the good in everything will make things so much easier. Even when you lose in certain areas, you’ll be able to pick apart the positives and soldier on like a champion.
4) Work In An Area You Love
You’re going to spend a lot of your life working and getting important things done. You may as well do this in a place you’re going to be happy in. It’s easy to just tell you to change your career, but perhaps it’s something you should genuinely look to do when you have free time. Why spend over a third of your life grafting away at something you hate – that’s not exactly going to make your mind optimistic for the future.
