Do you know the saying “the glass is half full”? This means looking at the good things in a situation. Take Luke for example. One morning, Luke missed the school bus, so he had to run all the way to school. He thought it was a great way to exercise! Although(虽然) he was late for the music class, he sang a song to say sorry. Luke just looked at the good things, and he said it was a wonderful morning!
A study shows that being positive can make you less stressed(焦虑的). For example, when you are practising for a school play, if you believe things will go well, you are less likely to feel nervous, and it will make you calmer and be able to practise better.
However, it is not easy to believe things will be OK. Michael, a scientist in thoughts and feelings, suggests saying sentences like“I can do this”, or “There is always tomorrow”. He believes words have great power. Michael says, “You can also practise being positive by reading hopeful news or celebrating the little things.”
Here are more ways to help you think and do things positively:
● Write three things every day you feel thankful for.
● If you're worried about something, like losing a game, ask“What happens if I don't win?”
● Change bad thoughts for good ones, like “Things could go well.”
