Your life is going to be full of setbacks, that’s just the nature of things. Life is full of ups and downs, and the best thing you can do is position yourself to make the most of those good times while hedging against the rough ones. Keeping a positive mindset is the best way to do this.

What do you do when things seem to go wrong? You have to be positive. You have to be optimistic. Think about it. If you don’t respond positively, then what is the alternative? And how has that alternative been worked out for you in the past? You have nothing to gain by focusing on the negatives. Everything you want in life is on the other side of failure, and the only way to get there is to stay positive and keep pushing forward.

Here are three simple ways to stay positive and weather the storms that life throws your way.

Surround Yourself with Positivity

One of the most effective ways to set yourself up for success is to engineer your environment and build productive habits that will move you toward success on autopilot. Since you become what you think about most of the time, it only makes sense to think about positive things in life.

Starting your day by reading some encouraging words can help set the tone for the whole day. Some great personal development authors include John Maxwell, Brian Tracy, John Covey, Tony Robbins and Gary Vaynerchuk. Put inspiring quotes all around your office, on your computer and phone desktops or even stuck up on the fridge at home. Commit to spending more time around positive people too, since their attitudes will rub off on you.

You can also automate your success through habits that can help you in life. Building a morning routine and a bedtime routine can help.

Take Care of Your Physical Health

You should also take good care of your physical health by making daily exercise a part of your routine. You don’t have to sign up for a marathon or anything to reap the benefits of exercise. As little as 20 minutes per day of moderate exercise can help improve how you look and feel.

Your diet is also important. Eat plenty of fresh veggies, fruits, legumes and whole grains to give your body the nutrients it needs for optimum health and performance. You might also want to incorporate superfoods into your meals, such as blueberries, garlic, turmeric, and oatmeal. These can help you fight off inflammation, boost your energy levels and improve your heart health.

Set Goals, Make Plans and Take Action

One of the best ways to build confidence and stay optimism is to accomplish goals that are important to you. Success breeds success. When you’re productive and find yourself achieving small goals, you feel good about yourself, and you become empowered to push harder to achieve even more.

Action is the key to success, but not all actions will help you in life. Some people are busy all day long, yet they never seem to get anywhere. The key is to know what you want to accomplish, to develop a plan that will make it happen and then to take action on that plan every day without allowing yourself to become distracted by non-essential tasks.

Some people think that time management is all about doing more things every day. But the opposite is actually true. Effective time management is about doing less things, not more things. You must discipline yourself to do the most important things – the things that will really make a difference and drive results. As you learn to do this, you will propel yourself toward your goals in a way that you cannot even imagine at this moment.

As you move rapidly toward your goals, you’ll begin to feel very excited and energized. This will then motivate you to push even harder and accelerate your progress, resulting in even greater levels of accomplishment, higher feelings of self-esteem and more positivity than you’ve ever experienced in the past.
