Body Positivity: The Movement to Change the Perspective

Have you ever wondered why few people are so successful while others are not? Well, I have and I spend a lot of time to find out why and finally found out. The answer to this question is quite uncanny and I was bewildered myself when I found out but apparently, it is the truth. So please start the drum roll – dumb dumb. The answer to the question is quite simple - positivity. People who are always positive tend to always be happy and a person who is always happy tends to always succeed. This is a simply chain to success. Some people may see the worst even in the best, and these people tend not to be happy and in turn are not successful in life. While on the other hand there are people who can see the best even in the worst situations no matter how ridiculous the best is. For e.g. a child once got hurt while playing football and the doctor to the child that he won’t be able to play for another 1 month. Everyone told the child that they were sorry of him and that he was a poor unlucky boy, but on his own the child did not feel sorry for himself. When someone asked him why he replied with a sweet smile. Everyone feels sorry for me but they can’t see the good to this hurt of mine – I am getting gifts from so many people, I don’t have to get up early in the morning for the practice. Sure, I won’t be able to play my favorite sport for some time but I can just think of it as a break. I think of it as something good and not bad. The child optimism beat his sadness and loss. He did not get depressed and got great marks in school and after a month put in double effort and became the team captain once more. So, in the end it’s clearly that optimism is the key to success a key that is dangling right in front of our eyes only we needed to grab it now.
