Positivity and its benefits?

Adam26 · November 2014

Hi guys,

Ages ago when we were chatting to the consultant, he mentioned that though it isn't yet scientifically proven, there is a benefit to being positive on cancer patients. Something to do with chemicals in the brain, he said that those who are positive do a lot better.

Does anyone know about this? If so, can you please send me a private message please? I know it sounds mysterious, I will explain why.

Hey Adam,

Don't know exactly how it works, but positive people do, make and notice positive things. That is in our world. Negative people are bitter inside and they mainly notice negative things. This shows in people's approach, actions and language. when you are positive you tend to attract good things.

Sometimes, all we need to do to get good information is to search this very website:
