So positive people are above everybody else now?

You "positive" people think y'all all that. You think just because you claim positive that means you're the shit. Because you're all happy go lucky, that means you're above everybody else?

    Negative people are just bored and looking to complain.

        Ah yes, because a notable trait of positive people is that they frequently complain... What?

    Positive people have always accomplished more than negative people.

    Many of them even assist negative people to learn to be more positive, if the negative person is interested in that.

    Your past is history; and you are where you are based on that.

    But, your future is mostly up to you. You can chose to become a positive force and move ahead in life if you want to. Two very real keys are that you have to be willing to learn new things, and be willing to work at pursuing the future you want.

    Why not come along for the ride... Its a much better adventure in life...

    • "Positive people have always accomplished more than negative people".

      There goes another thing i'd like to point out. People see positive as some kind of fucking god.

      "Many of them even assist negative people to learn to be more positive, if the negative person is interested in that".

      There are also lots of positive people, that sit there and assist a person that didn't ask for assistance. Regardless, I think their happy go lucky asses need to mind their business.

      "Why not come along for the ride... Its a much better adventure in life..."

      No, life is not an adventure and never will be. Life is just pure destruction. Life has been nothing, but chaos. I can tell you're one of them. Positive people are naive and can tell you're on of them. Don't try to change the fact that I see things for how it while, you fools can't. I will not join y'all.

        The absolute unadulterated irony of accusing other people of thinking they’re better than everyone and then saying “I can tell you’re one of them…I see things for how it while, you fools can’t.”

        If we could convert irony into electricity, this comment would power the United States for a year.

        • No, that statement was true, while the thought that positive thinkers have that they're better than everyone is not. You, along with those happy go lucky pricks can't really see things for how they are because you have been fooled by your naivety. And you could say that I think i'm better than everyone else, if I thought I was the only one that can see things for how they are but no, I know it isn't just me. By the way, I didn't mean for it to come off the way it did.

        You have chosen to live the life with your views.

        I have chosen to live a different life with different views.

        I'm not going to repeat the story of my past in this post; but, I've had hundreds of people tell me how horribly poor and deprived they were as children; and not a one of them faced some of the issues I faced as a child.

        I grew up as one of the poorest of the poor... in a large family with an alcoholic father.

        I experienced many bad things in my youth and in my life (and some of my current health issues would stop a number of people and they would quite and give up). I chose to find a way out and up. Some of my brothers and sisters did not. Every month this year I have figured out a way to improve what I can do with my health issues. I may not be able to physically do some of the things I did 2 years ago; but, I will be active and have a good life.

        Once someone explains to you that you have options that you did not know about.... then its your personal choice if you stay were you are at.

        While you may not have asked for assistance in doing better, as is your choice; many have been very grateful when I offered such assistance and I have personally assisted hundreds of people to do better in life.

        I wish you the best with your life...

        I know that I'm going to do well, and I know that I'm going to assist other people to improve their lives (and some to start businesses).

    No, some people just want to live a life free of stress, and avoid the hardships that come with regular life tenacities. It's a common practice that gives people a proper coping mechanism. Unless your egotistical or straight up arrogant, people who are positive thinkers look into the bright side while also in the negative. In search of looking for the most positive outcome.

    • And that's their problem now. Positive people can't accept things for how it is. They search, and search for something that is just not going to happen. And then they wonder why they cry in a corner like a baby that got their lollipop taken away. They're nothing, but naive thinkers that cannot accept that things are not always going to have a positive outcome.

        That's a harsh interpretation unless you think most positive thinkers want to drown out harsh realities. That's why a lot of people who feel lost in the world turn to religion because they feel more at peace knowing that everything going to be all right. People with positive aspirations or wanting what's best in people usually are the people who experience a lot of hard ships in their life. Usually they would either accept this reality as it is and have a nihilistic view of the world, or gain the knowledge to want to seek the most positive outcome for themselves. It's not that positive thinkers can't accept things how it is, it's usually more they don't want to accept things how they are. There is always room for improvement in the world, and when you have a more positive outlook on the world it helps in knowing that with life comes harm and suffering. That happens as a result of people who are naive in thinking that the world is already in a sufficient state.

    People who are completely neutral make the most accurate judgements and consequently, the most valuable contributions to society.

  • I dont think thats true. Positive people minds their own business and are nice to others because they are happy. Only unhappy people look down on others and act like jerks, because they carry so much bitterness and hatered and it's easier to spread it around than actually doing something about it and change your mindset and deal with your problems. There's lots of fake positive people though, especially on social media. They pretend to be happier and better than you to feel better about themselves. They are bullies.

    • Easier said than done. A lot of negative people are struggling with mental illnesses, had a rough childhood, etc. Which made them like that. And not all negative people are negative in the way you explain. There are also some that are negative just with themselves. Anyways, positive people are no better. Positive people think they're all that and above everybody just because they can think positively. Also, positive thinkers seem to think that they can get everything they want in life.

    It sounds to me like you're just insecure about your own unhappiness. You feel like you're not all that because you're unhappy and you're projecting that onto people who are.

    • It doesn't sound shit. I am a stranger on the internet that has views different from you, so don't try to tell me how I feel about myself all because of that. You don't know who I am, or anything about me. Don't try to pull that card all because you're not happy about my statement. And for the record, I don't wanna be all that and I know i'm not which doesn't make me even slightly unhappy. I'm glad with who I am.

              Calling you out on hypocrisy is not trolling, try again.

              This seems to be a pattern with you. You say something stupid, someone destroys you & you imminently panic saying 'yOu'Re TrOlLInG' because you can't come up with a counter argument.

    It's pretty simple really. You can choose to focus on positive things or focus on negative things. If you can't see any positive things then you are way too caught up in a negative thought spiral. Nobody thinks they're better than you bro, people are just trying their best to be happy, which is in my opinion the single most important thing for your personal life. Even in the deepest caves of existentialism, all that really matters for you in the end is how much you enjoyed your life while you had it.

    • They think they're better than everyone in general, not just me. I wasn't even really talking about myself when I had wrote this post. Anyways, whether I enjoyed life or not will be meaningless at the end of the day. And I get if you're trying to be happy, but that doesn't mean you're the shit because of that. Oh and by the way, whether you enjoyed life or not, will be meaningless.

        P.s. I don't know any happy person who thinks they're better than others. Thinking you're better than others is usually a characteristic of a narcissist or egotistical person, who are generally not known for being truly happy.

        Definitely not meaningless. It may in fact be the only thing that matters, because your experience is what counts for you. If you lived and died depressed then it's a waste of life. If you lived happy and enjoyed your life then it was worthwhile.

        • No, it does not matter. Once you're gone, you are gone and it won't matter. Life is meaningless from when you are first born. Whether you were happy or not during your experience, will not matter.

            It does matter because it's about living in the moment and enjoying your life while you have it. How meaningless it is after you die doesn't matter because it's about the experience. That's the best thing you can do with something you think is "meaningless". But yeah you can also choose to remain pessimistic and see everything as shit. You have to give your own life meaning. From a purely objective point of view you're right that everything will be pointless in the end and humanity has no other purpose than to survive and reproduce. But I totally disagree with the subjective worldview that nothing matters. It honestly just sounds like you're pretty depressed and holding a grudge against people who are happy. Literally the only thing that will matter to you when you are in a hospital bed with just hours left to live is the people you love and the memories you cherish. You're not going to be thinking about all the times you were depressed, bored, stressed, angry etc. Just about the moments that made you happy.

            • Believe me, when you die the experience you had is going to be meaningless whether you agree, or not. The experience will just be a distant memory and at the end of the day, the world will still go on. So whether you enjoyed life or not, will not matter. And eventually, the people you knew will forget about you. All lives are meaningless. And I have nothing going on in my life right now that can make me depressed, so it does not matter how I sound. I just think Positive people just act like they're better. Everything you experienced, the people you knew, and everything you knew, will be a distant memory. It is pointless. And for the record, everything is shit but you can choose to remain naive and not realize that. Have a nice meaningless day.
