20 Optimism-Encouraging Finds

From Positive Affirmation Art to Smile-Inducing Campaigns

— November 5, 2013 — Lifestyle
In today's troubled times, any small dose of good vibes -- whether it be in the form of a positive affirmation or a smile from a stranger -- is appreciated. Whether you're stressed out because of work, school, personal relationships or something as simple as a bad haircut (seriously, a bad haircut can ruin your life), these optimism-encouraging finds will cheer you right up.

Combining technology in the workplace with the pursuit of happiness, the social employee payment platform Bonus.Ly will cure you of your work woes. It's essentially a site dedicated to tracking small achievements in the workplace. If you're looking for a more private dose of optimism, why not check out the positivity notebooks? The clever diaries allow you to write about one thing and one thing only: things you "f*cking love."
