Positivity

Try to find something valuable in every interaction, situation and in every person you meet. I have no problems admitting when something didn't go over well. But I can squeeze something out of everything that happens to me.

It's a little bit more difficult with people. I can't bring myself to always engage in a positive way with everybody. But I admire the people who can.

I generally find it very endearing when people have a positive outlook on life and loving, empathic relations with their peers. Especially if they managed to overcome hardship.
