According to psychologists, positive mental health is not just the absence of mental health problems.
It indicates the emotional well-being of an individual which enables her/him cope better with life. Some individuals are unable to maintain a positive attitude consistently which affects them psychologically and physically. When individuals do not succeed in sorting out their issues/problems, counselling would empower them to handle their lives better.
"Ability is what you're capable of doing. Motivation determines what you do. Attitude determines how well you do it." -- Lou Holtz
A positive attitude is the basic requirement for the resilient disposition of an individual. Experience tells us that, the only difference between a good day and a bad day is our ATTITUDE!
