Resum

Positive emotions broaden and build the psychological, social and behavioral repertoires of people. Although emotions, both negative and positive, play important roles in our lives, have different functions. Positive emotions are related to resilience in adversity. Positive thinking involves rethinking positive and positive attitudes may motivate us to engage in constructive action. When people think that good things happen to them, they are more likely to try because they feel that what they do will make a difference in achieving a good result. Positive thinking provides well-being and life satisfaction. The good life is happy, healthy, productive and meaningful, involves more than the absence of disease, disorders and problems.
