5 Positive Attitude Poems

Do you have a positive attitude, are you a positive influence? Let these poems reinforce the benefits of having a positive attitude. You influence people every day whether you realize it or not. What you say, how you say it, and actions you take or don't take. Be conscious of your words and actions, and reflect optimism in all you do.

When we surround ourselves with people who have a positive impact on our life we find support, encouragement, and inspiration from these people. We agree with the thoughts of Rachael Bermingham, "Surround yourself with people who are really good and really passionate about what they do . . . positivity and passion make a powerful combination."

And yes, there are lots of negative - negative people, negative tv, negative books - but you can be influenced by the positive by the books you read, the tv you watch, and the people you spend your time with. As Samuel Cypert said, "Others may influence or suggest, but only you can control what your mind accepts or rejects."

  1. Positive Is The Key
    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer, © 2012


    To every negative, there is a positive,
    Just like there's up and down.
    The trick is to keep in mind,
    That positive overcomes a negative frown.

    If you take every negative,
    And find the good in it.
    You'll soon see the magic,
    That positive mind can transmit.

    And even more magically,
    That a positive mind can do.
    You'll soon see,
    That it will bring others straight to you.

    People are attracted,
    To everything that is,
    Positively influencing.
    Positive is the key.

  3. You Choose
    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer


    Each day you choose,
    Your attitude for the day.
    Do you pick a positive attitude
    Or see negative all the way?  

    A negative attitude may be easier,
    Because that is all you see,
    But all it will bring is
    Anger and dismay.

    Why focus on the positive
    When the day is negative?
    Because if your focus on the bad
    Then the negative is relative.

    Go with a positive attitude instead,
    Your worries won't seem as great.
    Bring a smile to everyone you meet,
    Things will get better if you don't wait.

    Even when life seems dim,
    A positive attitude changes things.
    Keep your focus on what is good
    And a happier day it will bring.

  5. Don't Sit On The Roadside
    by John B. Cough


    If you want to succeed in the world,
    you must make your own opportunities as you go on.

    The man who waits for some seventh wave to
    toss him on dry land will find that the
    seventh wave is a long time a-coming.

    You can commit no greater folly than
    to sit by the roadside until someone comes along
    and invites you to ride with him to wealth and influence.

  7. An Attitude Of Positivity
    Poet: Lucy V. Smitty


    Life isn't easy, it can be fraught with strife,  
    Yet having an attitude of positivity provides much respite.
    Problems and hardships may seem hard to fight,
    But with a positive perspective, will vanish from sight.

    A positive outlook on life is wise and true,
    It's not wishy-washy but concrete and smart too.
    It means we take ownership of our actions and reply –
    Refuse excuses that negativity implies.



  8. Problems and hardships may seem hard to fight, But with a positive perspective, will vanish from sight.

  9. My Life Is Like A Garden
    Poet: Catherine Pulsifer


    My life is like a garden, sunny and bright
    Blooming with opportunities within my sight.
    I focus my outlook to see the sunny side,
    Then happiness becomes the rule, not the exception aside.

    Though sometimes storms come and turn things gray,
    I will find the blessings that are sent my way.
    By keeping my attitude positive I do find
    Life is easier and much more kind.
