I love how you said it "see more positive in a negative situations " that is change itself. a huge change in our daily lives. Also, you change once what so convinced in, situations or how the world should be mentality will be lessen. Due to growing spiritually, mentally and age wise . Spiritually, if we see it just like your example " see more positive in a negative" you will get the answers , you will begin to let go one by one. and you will feel, ahh everyone has that ability to change and they know what to do, and give peace.

I think people get so hung up on "what is" that they think "what could be" is a waste of time. It's easy to get hung up on familiarity because it's safe, predictable and comfortable. Change is incredibly scary, especially if you've never experienced it to any significant degree. I agree with Barbara - people CAN change. It's whether they WANT to change and whether or not they see a benefit in going through the initial pain period. My opinion? Purposeful change is healthy and incredibly powerful.

Furthermore, even the most positive person cannot thrive without positive or available (good enough) attachments. Positive feelings are that which occur between people, not in isolation of that, e.g. on one's own.

There is a great danger here of thinking positive emotions better 'enable' the process of change. They are two different mechanisms involved and positivity and change are only partially linked. That is, one can be positive but still struggle to change. One can also be able to change but not be particularly positive. Words or concepts like change are so vague as well as what we mean by positive emotions. For example, is grief a positive emotion, most would think not, but it's a vital emotion in so many ways. The same goes for feelings of shame. There is another series of videos on the Power of Vulnerability on You Tube. Now the same author seems to be stressing getting past vulnerability, which feels like a very manic transformation. The idea that positive emotions are good for you is obvious, and that they often make one feel better. But the ways this is talked about smacks of a kind of pseudo-science pushing of the happiness agenda. Suffering and doubt, shame, etc, are seen as negative emotions. This is simplistic. The author here is clearly well meaning but is caught up in this simplistic account of positive and negative emotions which have, sadly, that touch of evangelical over-kill to them.

Cuando ella habla de emociones positivas se refiere dentro del marco de su teoría de ampliación y construcción, no de otras emociones positivas, sino de aquellas que ella ha estudiado que tienen la capacidad de ampliar y construir recursos fisicos, mentales, sociales. Ella se refiere a 10 emociones concretas.

All of your fast beginning titles look like they came straight from the bible which God has given us.
