You have to accept whatever comes and the only important thing is that you meet it with the best you have to give. -- Eleanor Roosevelt
Benefits of Being Positive Over the years I've done a lot of research on the positive effects of being positive and the negative affects of being negative. The research is clear. It really does pay to be positive and the benefits include enhanced health and longevity, happiness, career advancement, athletic performance, team building and financial success. Being positive is not just a nice way to live. It’s the way to live. In this spirit here are 11 benefits of being positive. 1. Positive People Live Longer - In a study of nuns, those that regularly expressed positive emotions lived on average 10 years longer. (The Nun Study) 2. Positive work environments outperform negative work environments. (Daniel Goleman) 3. Positive, optimistic sales people sell more than pessimistic sales people. (Martin Seligman)
Grab the right grub:- The whiter the bread, the sooner you will be dead This blunt bit of grandmotherly advice is a reminder of the health risks of white flour. People who eat lots of whole grains tend to be healthier and live longer. Avoid foods grandma wouldn't recognise There are now thousands of food products in the supermarket that our ancestors wouldn't recognise. They are processed in ways designed to get us to buy and eat more by pushing our evolutionary buttons (such as our inborn preferences for sweetness, fat and salt). If it came from a plant, eat it; If it was made in a plant, Don't It makes sense. Don't eat cereals that change the colour of milk Such cereals are highly processed and full of refined carbohydrates and chemical additives.
