I think the major problem is finding those negative things in our lives and then going about eliminating them. The question is do we really believe that some certain things are negative in our lives? Those things that affects us negatively too, are we really willing to do away with the negative things in our life and move on.
Well when we do away with the negative things in our lives we get ourselves the better chances of positivity, to get good insights and our circumstances turns around for good.
