Linked below is the ‘Power Of Positive Summit’. This is a limited time series of videos by various people that present their thoughts on being positive.
Being positive is something that takes a lot of work……it’s about building habits and learning how to train yourself to think in a positive light. Like anything else, it comes easier for some than others. It’s not about walking around with a pollyanna outlook, ignoring reality. Being positive is about learning how to deal with negative things that occur daily.
When I was coaching, I believed that positivity was an important ingredient in building a winning program. We had a list of principles that we wanted to emphasize in our program: The Nine Fundamentals Of A Lady Eagle. When we moved to Idalou, we kept the list, but changed ‘Lady Eagle’ to ‘Lady Cat’. The Ninth Fundamental was: Be Positive
With that particular Fundamental, we talked about processing negative occurrences and then letting them go and getting our focus back on the positive. Didn’t matter if we were talking about games, practices, the classroom, or life in general.
I’m looking forward to watching the videos over the next few days, and wanted to send the link out as well……we get bombarded with negativity all day long, a dose of positivity can’t be anything but good for me. I hope you get something out of it as well
