THE POWER OF PAWS-ITIVITY BY MEKAYLA BOYDSTON
We’ve all heard about the power of positivity, but what does that really mean? To Mr. Wildhaber (Dubs) positivity is about not focusing on the negative and trying to stay positive by focusing on the good. “If you have negative thoughts and constantly focus on the negative, you'll never have a good day, so you can change your whole outlook on life by forcing yourself to have positive thoughts.” Science is on Dub’s side. Johns Hopkins reports that “just a simple smile, even a fake one, ”has a big effect on positivity. You can trick yourself into being more positive by forcing yourself to think good thoughts more and think bad thoughts less. We can never have too much positivity at De Kalb High School, and sometimes we need more positivity. So we should all smile more, think positive thoughts, and as Dubs always says, “Good vibes only.”
