Your perceptions and attitudes toward life actually affect the internal you
Your perceptions and attitudes toward life actually affect the internal you which then set the impetus on how other people interact with you. Your mind interprets a perception either as negative, positive or neutral, then sets your attitude in accordance with that perception. But reality is not bound by your perception alone. If you perceive negatively of something, your mind will set the attitude in accordance with that perception, irrelevant of whether such thing is actually negative or not. Hence, it is the internal you, your mind that becomes negative and not necessarily your subject.
A negative mindset creates the moods and attitudes that begets further negative temperaments resulting to a vicious cycle of negative actions emanating from you and consequent negative reactions from others. People who met similar circumstances in life attained varied degrees of resolution because each had a unique way of approaching a situation. Different people set out to do the same task also turned out successful or not because each had a different perception or attitude toward the task.
It may seem unfair but true. Happiness begets more happiness, sorrow more sorrows, anger more anger, love more love, envy more envies, fear more fears, frustration more frustrations, success more successes and failure more failures. Wonder why certain people seem to will-o'-the-wisp in their miseries one after another while others prosper? The key is in their mindset. Their negatively charged mindsets narrowed their peripheral view to a "line of sight focus", consequently limiting perspectives, options, insight and foresight, created a biased than balanced outlook, thereby attracting the consequent scenarios or chained situations which, would not have been had their mindset been positive or neutral. A negatively charged mindset is driven by negative emotions hence, thoughts and actions emanating from such are more emotional than logical. On a meta-physical field, a negatively charged mindset will influence your time and space displacement. You will often find yourself at places in time to experience some misfortunes or missing out on well-deserved opportunities because you were not present when and where you were suppose to. Believe it or not, it is possible to wilfully attract misfortunes and skip out on any opportunity for yourself.
How does one adopt a positive attitude towards life? By changing one's point of view. By adopting parallaxes or viewpoints, dissecting logic and paradoxes and broadening perspectives through a phalanx of pragmatic concepts. One must discover how to manage a situation from multiple viewpoints (parallaxes) instead of a straight "line of sight". Avoid impulsive or urge process thinking as these are dependent on passions and emotions, not based on logic and are always variable as time, environment and other psychological stimuli, hence very unstable. When you manage to change your perceptions from negative to neutral or positive, your attitude will change accordingly and so will your relations with the world.
