Forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future. Give everyone a smile. Spend so much time improving yourself that you have no time left to criticize others. Be too big for worry and too noble for anger.”
I recently reviewed an article from SUCCESS Magazine by Najma Khorrami from April 7, 2017 discussing the concept. I have linked to the article for your review!
"Remember when somebody you knew received a promotion, achieved something great or got a better job? Do you remember what you felt in that moment? Happiness? Jealousy? Now recall your last achievement or accomplishment. How good did you feel about yourself?
If we celebrated others’ success as if it were our own, we could feel a huge surge in positivity and joy, which can lead to greater optimism, the latter benefiting our own health. In the previously mentioned study, an optimistic view on life was shown to protect not only against cardiovascular disease, but also prevent premature death from other major causes such as cancer, stroke, respiratory disease and infection. Such rewards in terms of health are compelling, and they confirm there is power in positive thinking. In fact, another earlier study found that positive psychology “assets,” such as optimism and positive emotions, are predictors of good physical health."
