There are many theories, concepts and ways of thinking out there that encourage people to be more positive. From the “What the Bleep Do We Know” Law of Attraction to neuroscience brain processes, many ideas strive to suggest that positive thinking influences our bodies, mind and overall selves for the better.

Then, many people try to cut these ideas down and prove their lack of scientific foundation or lack of sufficient empirical evidence. 

Great. Who cares? If the idea encourages people to be more positive, just leave it alone. Detailed scientific journals can do what they want, but personally discounting people’s beliefs around positivity is extremely counter-productive. 

We’re all trying to be better people and being more positive is a great first step.
