The Positive Dictionary by Dr Phil Minnaar

The Positive Dictionary is unique. It contains only words with positive connotations. Every word conveys a positive message in the form of a positive action or activity which can be practiced on a daily basis. For every word there is also a basic truth in the form of a positive thought, a motto, or a slogan which can be followed in life. One can work systematically through the book by choosing specific words and deliberately putting them into action for a week or two or more to cultivate a positive outlook on life. The book covers positive actions and thoughts in the following areas:

Basic values, Spiritual values, Relationships, Goodness, Positive Thinking, Enjoyment, Work, Effectiveness, Goals, Learning, Motivation, Health and Wellness, Community Service and a general Positive Outlook on Life.

The positive Dictionary:

+ fosters a positive outlook on life; + inspires in difficult times; + improves relationships; + explains the deeper meaning of words

The Positive Dictionary is also a useful tool to anyone who is actively involved in providing counseling services.
