Have you ever noticed that when someone walks in with a smile and positive attitude, it uplifts everyone in the room?

On the flip side, when someone walks in with a bad attitude or negative energy, that also spreads like wildfire?

Energy breeds energy.

I like to think of it this way: With every interaction I have with someone, I have a choice. I can either lift them up or bring them down.

I want to be that person who adds, not subtracts.

I’m always looking to make deposits, not withdrawals.

First, it’s the right thing to do and the right way to be. But also, spreading positive energy also creates more positive energy and momentum.

The kinder we are to each other, the more positive energy we can create.

And the more positive energy we create, the more successful we all become.

If that sounds corny, it’s not. 

Think of a perpetually negative person in your life, and take note of your body language, heart rate, and mood the next time you’re in their presence.

What do you think would happen if you spent less time with that person … and more time with someone who lifts you up?

Success. Happiness. Positivity. Productivity. Momentum.

There is no momentum without action. And positive energy – and people – are a prerequisite for both.
