To add more of my own thoughts to my previous post, I think to be positive is not something that can be found in written texts, in the thoughts of others nor the opinion of others, although these things can act as triggers in your seeking of yourself.
To be positive is something to be found within, to seek your inner light and what feels positive to yourself. And what may feel to be positive on this day won't necessarily be what will feel to be positive in a year or a decade, it is ever subject to change and refinement, just as you yourself are changing being refined by your past.
You will never know the greatest way to serve, the most useful way to help others because each moment ever is unique in itself and also perfect. So all I think you will come to see in the long run is that what mattered for yourself was your intent and how you reacted to it being challenged by the complexity of your outer reality and how you needed to adapt to keep it's purity, and that what mattered for others is the only thing you were meant to offer, or even the only thing you could offer, the uniqueness of yourself among them.
In another thread not too long ago, there was a quote from Q'uo that was shared, that said that the most skillful choice in seeking to serve others always is to work on yourself and I think that really nailed it. Your desire to be positive is more than enough, all that is left is to find what feels right for yourself to do and cultivate your own well being, peace and light so that you may radiate it in a manner that does not diminish it within yourself. This will be unique to each and mimicking another will most likely not prove useful, unless perhaps for a time.
