Positive emotions and vulnerability are recognized as key factors that can help in maintaining a healthy mind and body because of the following. Vulnerability is argued as a means to develop courage, which will likely lead one to be successful in maintaining a healthy mind and body (CBS Morning, 2018). Positive emotions can also be beneficial since they can widen a person’s thinking and action, which can contribute to good health and functioning (Aalto University, 2019). The challenge in trying to adapt the research above to the general public is having to convince them that vulnerability is a skill set and that one can maintain positive emotions even when the reality is different. The reason is that most of the traits portrayed as influencing success do not consider positive emotions and vulnerability as important.
