Life doesn’t always go according to plan. Challenges, setbacks, and unexpected twists are part of the journey. But even in the darkest moments, it’s possible to hold onto hope. These six strategies will help you stay positive in tough times and keep moving forward.

As Rick Randall, founder of Attitude Dept and Pass the Positive, says: “Pass the Positive. Pass the Love. Pass the Aloha.”


1. Focus on What You Can Control

Instead of getting lost in what’s beyond your power, shift your energy toward what you can influence. This keeps you proactive and reduces feelings of helplessness.


2. Practice Gratitude Daily

When life feels heavy, gratitude becomes an anchor. List three things you’re thankful for each day — even the small ones, like a good cup of coffee or a smile from a stranger.


3. Connect with Positive People

Surround yourself with those who inspire and encourage you. Their energy will help lift your spirits and remind you that you’re not alone.


4. Use Affirmations to Reframe Your Mindset

Positive statements like “I am capable of handling this” or “This challenge will make me stronger” can help you redirect negative thinking.


5. Take Care of Your Body

Eat nourishing foods, get enough sleep, and stay active. Physical wellness plays a big role in mental resilience.


6. Wear and Share Positivity

Sometimes, what you wear can influence how you feel. Apparel from the Pass the Positive collection is designed to inspire hope — for you and those around you.


Closing Thought

Tough times don’t last, but your positive mindset can. By focusing on what you can control, surrounding yourself with support, and keeping gratitude at the center, you can weather any storm with hope in your heart.
