What's the key(s) to maintaining a positive attitude?

I guess I'll start this thing out

You know, as strong as my faith is, I still struggle to various degrees with the downs of life. It is much easier to offer positive outlook and advice for somebody else than it is to myself. :)
I've got better at it though through the years...but stil get negative when life has a serious bump.

I recently went through a surprising job layoff and now find myself in this "dreaded" economic time looking for work. I suppose I could settle for a lesser paying job if I have to but I don't want my lifestyle affected too much and am holding out for what I want but it's tough being unemployed...more mentally than finacially if you know what I mean.

If any of you have any techniques that have worked for you to keep positive and upbeat I'd like to hear about them.

    so sorry to hear about your predicament. however I try to subscribe to the thought that if god brought you to it he will bring you through it. maintain your faith and refuse to allow satan to take you dreams and hopes away from you. In all your prayers steve I am in aggreence with you and when we gather against satan and rejoice in the lord he does not stand a chance. The right job is just around the corner. Ask then listen for his lead
