Intro

Hello dear reader, I’m Nancy from Nancybinspired, and today I want to share some powerful techniques to help you stay positive every day. Positivity isn’t just a fleeting feeling; it’s a mindset that can transform your life. By adopting these techniques, you’ll be well on your way to living your best, most vibrant life.. I’m excited about this blog and how it will be the catalyst for helping you live your best life. Remember change happens with baby steps, so take one action on the path and add more as you go on your journey.

Let’s be honest, every day isn’t always a picnic or walk in the park, but if we set our intentions at the beginning of the day, setting us up for success, even if just mindset, it will have such a powerful affect, not only for that particular day, but your future as well.

How to stay positive everyday is a learned behavior for most. At nancybinspired, that is the foundation of my company and brand. I learned through very challenging times in my life, that I had to focus on what I could control and my mind was it. Once I learned to control my mind, my intentions, the power of positivity and began making these practices part of my daily life, I saw a huge shift. I saw doors open, opportunities and new friendships. Nancybinspired has been the result of many decades of work and nancybinspired is here to grow a community of positivity helping each person in the community live their best life. My hope is one by one we can learn to be more positive, have more fulfilling lives and then share that with others as a “pay it forward”. Isn’t that what we’re all here to da?

Nancybinspired is founded on community, inspiration, positivity, living your best life and helping others do the same.

Let’s go!

Start Your Day With Gratitude

Gratitude is a cornerstone of positivity. Begin each day by acknowledging the things you’re grateful for. This simple practice can shift your focus from what’s lacking to what’s abundant in your life.

• Actionable Tip: Keep a gratitude journal by your bedside. Each morning, write down three things you’re thankful for. For more insights, listen to our podcast episode, “Attitude of Gratitude.”

Special Offer: Coming Soon!

To help you get started, I’ve created a beautiful gratitude journal available for purchase. This journal is designed to guide you in your daily gratitude, practice and includes inspirational prompts and quotes to help you start this new practice.

I’m currently working on the journal and hope to make it available in the near future through Amazon. Please DM me on social media Instagram-Nancybinspired for release information to secure your copy!.

Practice Mindfulness and Meditation

Mindfulness helps you stay present and centered, reducing stress and enhancing your overall mood. Meditation, even for just a few minutes a day, can significantly impact your mental clarity and positivity.

• Actionable Tip: Try our guided walking meditation nancybinspired Podcast series, which focuses on manifesting positivity and joy. You can find these meditations on my blog and YouTube channel.

• Actionable Tip; Invite friends over and break bread with them. Did you know your body releases endorphins when you’re around people that bring you joy? Why not invite friends over to your house instead of going out? Entertainment is a form of mindfulness and mediation.

• Actionable Tip: Where you attention goes, energy flows. Pay attention to where you’re placing your attention. Is it bringing you joy? Turn off distractions and turn on joy. Take walks, join groups, try a new adventure and start something new. Feel your energy shift.

Surround Yourself With Positivity

The people and environment around you greatly influence your mindset. Surround yourself with supportive, positive individuals and create a space that inspires you.

• Actionable Tip: Declutter your living space and add elements that bring you joy, like plants, inspirational quotes, and calming colors. Check out my blog post on creating an stress-free environment for more tips. Be sure to check out nancybinspired Declutter Podcast for more!

• Actionable Tip: When spending down time scrolling or surfing be sure you’re researching positivity and not negativity. Search things that bring you joy and help expand your knowledge. Don’t spend this valuable time shopping, buying into someone else’s dream. Spend it on growing yourself. Educate and search educational information via books, podcasts or blogs, such as mine Nancybinspired for starters. Keep with the theme of positivity and the algorithms will bring you more.

Engage In Physical Activity

Exercise releases endorphins, the body’s natural mood boosters. Activities like Zumba not only keep you fit but also lift your spirits and energy levels.

• Actionable Tip: Join one of my Zumba classes or follow along with the routines I share on my blog and social media. Staying active is a fantastic way to maintain a positive outlook.

• Actionable Tip: Physical activity is the cornerstone to health, wealth and happiness. There’s a saying “if you have your health, you have everything”. This is the true. Be sure to move your body daily. Try yoga, walks, stretching and move onto do dance, swimming and whatever else makes you feel good. Remember this, if it feels good, do more. Techniques How To Stay Positive Every Day actually begins with physical fitness. Some folks start with the very first thing in the morning, they medicate, and do yoga from the star of their new day. This is an excellent practice to begin if you haven’t already. The reason is if you start your day with physical activity, there won’t be an excuse later as to why you didn’t…

Set Positive Intentions

Starting your day with positive intentions can set the tone for how you perceive and react to events. Affirmations are a powerful tool to reinforce positive thinking.

• Actionable Tip: Begin each day with an affirmation like “Everything is always working out for me.” For more affirmations and motivation, listen to my podcast, “A Burst of Positivity.”

• Actionable Tip: Nancybinspired was found on this single premise. Daily gratitude and setting daily positive intentions. It catapulted me from rock bottom to freedom. If you take one nugget from this blog Techniques How to Stay Positive Every Day, ingrain this action step into your life. Memorize it and take action on it daily. Then tell me your story.

Engage In Creative Activities

Creativity is a great way to express yourself and reduce stress. Whether it’s painting, writing, or any other hobby, engaging in creative activities can boost your mood and help you stay positive.

There are apps that allow you to draw online, coloring books for adults, and many activities you can start at home or join. Check out a local art studio, dance studio, or even sip and paint events where you sip wine and draw in a group. Research your local college, or retail stores that sell yarn to learn how to crotchet, needlepoint, the options are endless and available.

• Actionable Tip: Set aside time each week for a creative activity you love. For inspiration, check out my blog post on the benefits of creative expression.

• Actionable Tip: Try something new. What is it that you always wanted to do, but haven’t taken action? Creative expression can transform every aspect of your life including new friendships, positivity and confidence.

Wind Down Bedtime Stories

Bedtime stories aren’t just for kids. Listening to or reading a soothing story before bed can help you relax, reduce stress, and promote a positive mindset. Bedtime stories for adults can include calming narratives, meditative journeys, or even inspirational tales that leave you feeling uplifted and ready for a restful night’s sleep.

• Actionable Tip: Check out my podcast series on bedtime stories designed to help you unwind and embrace positivity as you drift off to sleep. You can find these calming stories on my blog and podcast channel.

Travel

Travel can change your mind and open you up to new perspectives and ideas. When traveling to new places it is an adventure and time to explore. This by itself takes you out of your day to day routine and allows you brain to process the unknown when affects your nervous system in a positive way.

Whether it’s a day trip, weekend getaway or longer, be sure to travel at least a few times a year. The more the better. Check out my Beercation blog for a fun spin.

Actionable Items:

1. Plan, Set a goal at the beginning of the year to take trips or start planning today fro the rest of the year.
2. Check out my Viator and Get Your Guide Links on the sidebar of my blog for great ideas with wonderful tours.
3. Don’t be afraid to go solo! Sometimes waiting on friends keeps us from actually going.

Nurture Financial Health

Financial stability plays a crucial role in maintaining a positive mindset. When your finances are in order, you can reduce stress and focus more on enjoying life. Building healthy, financial habits, such as budgeting, saving and investing, can provide peace of mind and a sense of security.

Learn to live under your means and only buy what you need to invest in yourself or your business. Once you reach a point of excessive income, then buy the things you want. Wants vs needs. Start there.

*Actionable Tip: start by creating a simple budget to track your income and expenses. Set financial goals, such as saving for emergencies or investing for the future. For more tips on managing your finances check out my podcast coming soon!
