Be positive! Get rid of the negativity! Get a more positive attitude!
Don't be so negative. Advice to get positive is often given. Yet most people don't
know specific steps to build and maintain a positive attitude, strong self esteem,
optimism and skills for feeling good. Positive attitude books and seminars tend to be
inspirational pep talks without action plans. Positivity training is a systematic
program with specific steps to turn on & enhance the positivity traits listed below.
Who benefits from Positivity Training? Anybody: health care
providers, patients, teachers, employees, (execs, sales, customer service, marketing)
I'm already positive and I feel great. Can Positivity training help me?
J ust as athletes and artists pick up new techniques faster, positive people quickly
benefit. They add new Positivity skills and fine-tune their feeling-good responses to feel
and perform better than before, and learn to bring out the best in people around them.
Positivity Training teaches... how to build, increase and make more effective use of inner strengths. It is
used by over 1,000 trainers, health care providers, managers, sales and customer service
people and educators worldwide
Positivity
training says good feelings and positive experiences are the most important parts of our
lives-- the basic building blocks of inner strength, self esteem, positive
attitude, capacity for happiness, and the ability to see more opportunities for more
positive experiences and to cope with problems. The goal is to increase skills in all
aspects of positive experience.
Positivity training moves you towards the best you can feel and function. It builds
strengths, rather than analyzing, and emphasizing elimination of negativity. Positivity
training assumes many negatives will simply be replaced by positive behaviors.
Positivity Training Outline
Introduction:
-Positivity and The Positive Experience (PE) Response
-The Six Facets of the Anatomy of Positive Experience
1- Prepare Mind and Body for PEs & good feelings ; be comfortable feeling and expressing strong positive emotions. Maintain
healthy habits, honesty, and positivity traits & be prepared to make the most of PE
opportunities.
2- Plan, schedule, research, anticipate PEs; not just vacations &
weekends; every day. Study your PE patterns, inner & outer resources, and your
environment to build a PE knowledge base so you can zoom in on PE possibilities. Schedule
challenges at work and play.
3- Systematic Positive Attitude Building; Recognize, identify, initiate and embrace PE opportunities; Sharpen skills for recognizing PE
opportunities and initiating them most effectively. Develop a positive attitude that
expects to find PEs & seeks them out.
4- Optimal Experiencing; Make
the most of the moment Learn to boost PE intensity, length, complexity, and content m
aking them more
meaningful and memorable.
5- Store, Keep, Retrieve Good Memories; Store the PE (in your brain, on
paper, photo, audio, video, computer.) Integrate it into your memory, self-image and
relationship with the world. Do a post PE stretch.
6- Clone Your Best Moments: Transplant Winning Behaviors and Feelings; Recycle your PEs to new
situations and areas of your life.
-Inhibitors of good feelings and positive experiences;
take the Positivity inhibitor test.
Dealing with & Helping Negative
People
Tens of millions of Americans have problems with
depression, anger, anxiety, cynicism, pessimism, or expressing or feeling positive
emotions. Their negativity profoundly affects their performance, relationships, and the
people around them. They get sick more often and ruin the morale of the family, group,
class or office. Positivity can help turn them around and help the people near them to
cope with them more effectively. You begin to notice the change as they start sharing good
feelings. They go from growling to glowing. Stress, anxiety and anger begin to disappear.
Give it a try confidence and outright enthusiasm replace negativity.
What about Laughter, Humor &
Stress Management?
Positivity training includes elements of all of these
plus behavioral and cognitive self talk approaches. But most important, it is a
comprehensive systematic approach to increasing one's positive aspects rather than just a
quick fix for getting rid of unwanted behaviors, It is not just a brief entertainment
(though it is fun and lively.) A warning we're proud of; *-Positivity emphasizes the
heart, honesty, integrity, altruism and virtue as essential elements in being and feeling
the best one can. It is not recommended for groups who want to maintain a
"cut-throat" attitude in sales or competition.
