Michael is always in a good mood and says something positive, which is because every morning he tells himself to choose the positive side of life. In his view, it’s a person’s choice how he lives life.
Difficult as our life is, it’s conceivable that we still have the choice to lead a positive life and the reasons are as follows. Firstly, an optimistic mind lays a solid foundation for a successful career. Only if we stay positive can we completely throw ourselves into work, thus gaining remarkable achievement. Secondly, our positive attitude will exert a great influence on people around us, leading to the consequence that our society becomes more and more harmonious.
In terms of how to live a positive life, Nelson Mandela has set a good example for us, who was sentenced to prison for life for being one of the ANC leaders. Despite living a miserable life in prison, he never chose to give up his optimistic attitude and even planted vegetables in prison. After he was released from prison, he actively devoted his life to his dream of making black and white equal, without complaints about difficulties he had ever met with. There is no doubt that everyone should learn from Nelson Mandela’s positive attitude to life.
Well goes the proverb, “life is like a revolving door. When it closes, it also opens.” Though we have many excuses for giving in to our life, we can also choose to lead a positive life. A happy life is not a chance but a choice which totally depends on ourselves.

There is no denying that I should choose to stay positive towards life. For one thing, a positive attitude towards life is a major contributing factor to health. For anther, staying positive, I can find out every pleasant side from every negative side, which makes me enjoy a brighter life.
To keep a positive attitude towards life, we should try to find fun for ourselves even if the situation is temporarily terrible. Take the character acted by Charlie Chaplin as an example. Being exposed to the obstacles in life, he can move forward with positive attitude. Even when he had nothing else to eat, feeling severely hungry, he could eat a boiled shoe as if it were delicious. It is his positive attitude that brought him good mood and moved us. In addition, life is ours so we needn’t allow others to affect our good mood. Last but not least, no matter how terrible the situation is, don’t keep complaining.
In short, we should keep a positive attitude towards the loss and gains, ups and downs in life. Stay positive and we are bound to see the light of life eventually.
