The Positive Dog: A Story About the Power of Positivity

Discover the benefits of being positive.

We all have two dogs inside of us. One dog is positive, happy, optimistic, and hopeful. The other dog is negative, mad, sad, pessimistic, and fearful. These two dogs often fight inside us, but guess who wins the fight? The one you feed the most. So begins the story about a negative mutt named Matt and a big dog named Bubba who teaches him how to feed himself with positivity each day and in the process Matt transforms his own life and the shelter they call home.

The Positive Dog is an inspiring, heartwarming story that not only reveals the strategies and benefits of being positive but also an essential truth for humans: Being positive doesn’t just make you better. It makes everyone around you better.

“Eleven Benefits of Being Positive,” by Jon Gordon, Author of The Positive Dog

Jon Gordon 1. Positive people live longer. In a study of nuns, those that regularly expressed positive emotions lived an average of 10 years longer than those who didn’t (Snowdon, 2001).

2. Positive work environments outperform negative work environments (Goleman, 2011).

3. Positive, optimistic salespeople sell more than pessimistic salespeople (Seligman, 2006).

4. Positive leaders are able to make better decisions under pressure (Institute of HeartMath, 2012).

5. Marriages are much more likely to succeed when the couple experiences a 5-to-1 ratio of positive to negative interactions, whereas when the ratio approaches 1-to-1, marriages are more likely to end in divorce (Gottman, 1999).

6. Positive people who regularly express positive emotions are more resilient when facing stress, challenges, and adversity.

7. Positive people are able to maintain a broader perspective and see the big picture, which helps them identify solutions, whereas negative people maintain a narrower perspective and tend to focus on problems (Fredrickson, 2009).

8. Positive thoughts and emotions counter the negative effects of stress. You can’t be thankful and stressed at the same time.

9. Positive emotions such as gratitude and appreciation help athletes perform at a higher level (Institute of HeartMath, 2012).

10. Positive people have more friends, which is a key factor of happiness and longevity (Putnam, 2000).

The Power of Not: Positive Results from Negative Affirmations

Back-of-the-book Review: “‘The Power of Not’ is probably not what you think. As a public speaker and writer, I’ve been coached to avoid the negative words. According my own teachers, there are other ways to communicate what needs to be said without mouthing or typing the words no, not, or never. But Shawn has found a way to strip the negativity from these words. He’s even discovered what I’m calling the ‘science of reverse positivity’ in that, now I know how good and positive the ‘nots’ in my life really are. Thank you, Shawn, for reminding me of my own power and ability to not do, say, or be anything less than God’s ideal. And for my favorite sentence in the whole book: ‘Covered in God’s mercy, we begin to see the world differently.'” -Kenny Bishop, Gospel Singer and Public Speaker
