We are all prone to negativity, but we can work towards being more positive.
We have all felt down, discouraged, unmotivated, tired and drained. It happens to everyone.
But how do you stay positive even when you’re feeling down?
There are many different ways to do this. Here are a few.
1. Surround yourself with positivity
When you’re feeling down, try to spend more time around positive people. This might sound hard to achieve, but there are lots of ways to achieve this.
Find people who make you feel better about yourself.
Do things that make you happy, like exercise, meditate, listen to music, go to the beach, or watch a movie.
2. Get some exercise
Exercise releases endorphins that make us feel happier.
Try a quick walk, go swimming, or hit the gym. If you’re going to do something active, try to do it in the morning or at lunchtime.
3. Have a hobby
Having a hobby can give you something to look forward to. If you don’t have one already, maybe try one of these hobbies.
Writing a blog, watching movies, making crafts, playing sports, learning languages, drawing, or reading books.

Focus on what’s good about your life, and not on what’s bad.
If you want to feel positive, focus on the good things in your life, like your friends, family, and the little things that make you happy.

When you feel down, doing something nice for another person can lift their mood.
Try giving them a compliment, or helping them with their homework, or taking them out for ice cream.
