Positive outlook is contagious - and productive

One of the reasons we should try to be optimistic and grateful is that it will help others as well as ourselves. I listened to this podcast (while running; see link below) about how Norwegians think positively about winter, and this attitude is contagious, according to some research done. So people are happier! In the same way I think it's much more productive to identify the positive in ourselves and others and try to build on that, not that we should be blind to problems, but approach them in a positive way! MFP is very much a positive environment!
