There are a few tips which motivational speakers and life coaching experts often talk about, that can help us reap the benefits of a positive attitude. So how do we invoke the power of positive thinking, and apply positive psychology to our life? Positive words and positive phrases form the vehicle to help us get there. If we think about it, even before uttering them aloud, we use words in our thought process to convey our thoughts to ourselves. Since words are like building blocks to convey what we feel and think, using the right positive phrases and words assumes paramount importance to get the positive thinking ball rolling. Below are a few ideas to help you use positive words and phrases in your conversations, and become a positive person. If you are looking for just a list of words or phrases instead, here is one list of positive adjectives. 
1. Get out of the habit of criticizing yourselfThe first and foremost subject of your positive words and thoughts should be yourself. As long as you don't subject yourself to negativity, it becomes easier to project that positive mental attitude on to external circumstances and people. So watch for self-criticism - the moment you recognize it happening, pull yourself up short and stop it. It is okay to admit your mistakes - and you should, at the very least to yourself - but constantly berating yourself over them hurts your self esteem, and should be avoided. Accept that it could happen to others as well, learn from it, and move on. Tag line: "Hey, I messed up; but it could happen to others as well. It's a good thing this happened because, this is what I am going to learn from it, and move on." "Positive anything is better than negative nothing." -Elbert Hubbard 2. Avoid constant criticism of others Now, the same rule should be applied when criticizing others. Realize everyone is different, and everyone's perceptions are different. Use a reverse tag line: "So she may have messed up; but that could happen to me as well. Let me see if I can face up to the challenge of not playing the blame game, but instead, use my energy in being positive about it, and work towards a resolution." There are plenty of tips on this website, on dealing with negativity arising from other person's actions or words. "Once you replace negative words with positive words, you'll start having positive results." -Willie Nelson 
3. Quit getting upset on situations beyond your controlNow, if you think about it, this doesn't serve much purpose at all, other than providing momentary relief. How about this tag line for a positive spin: "Hey, the situation is messed up; but stuff happens. Maybe its a good thing this happened, as it gives me a chance to hone my skills in dealing with such a situation." In fact you can use whatever is relevant for the current situation, after the phrase, "Maybe its a good thing this happened because,...". Consider it a challenge to describe the situation in positive words and positive phrases, or creatively come up with a positive aspect out of it. You will find that a lot of times, it is not that hard to do it. "A pessimist sees the difficulty in every opportunity; an optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty." -Winston Churchill 4. Change your internal dialogue when dealing with fear The moment you identify fear creeping into your mind, change your internal dialogue to reverse the thought and put a positive spin to it. 
These phrases could form your simple tag line when a "what if" creeps into your mind: "I'll handle it" or "I'll figure it out".Once you resolve to "handle it" or "figure it out", more often than not, you will find ways to deal with the situation, and your fear of the situation. "There are no limitations to the mind except those we acknowledge." -Napoleon Hill 5. Change your vocabulary as a daily habit As a daily habit, practice avoiding negative phrases in your language with yourself as well as with others. Phrases such as "I can't do it", "It's impossible for me", just align our mind to the negative, and serve little purpose in getting something accomplished. That will help you set your priorities, and if the task is not your priority at the moment, it still doesn't verbally diminish your capacity to do it, should the priorities change in future. "Train your mind to think in terms of 'possible' and 'can be done'." -Unknown When such positive words and positive phrases are regularly used in our vocabulary and thought process, you will notice an interesting thing happening; your psychology and philosophy of life will change. Being positive becomes a natural habit to you, that you will find hard to get rid of, even if you want to. But the question is - once you get to that point, why would you want to?

Instead, a positive self talk by using alternative positive words and phrases such as "I can, if I want to apply myself to it" or "It's possible, if I am willing to put in the time and effort", while acknowledging the task requires effort, put the responsibility of handling it on you.
