Cheryl: How important is it to maintain a positive attitude?

Higg(in)s: Critically important. We encourage you to be like the dog with its ears forward and its tail up. The dog looks forward to each and every moment with interest.

Cheryl: Why is each and every moment important?

Higg(in)s: Every waking moment you are interacting with Universal Consciousness whether you want to or not. If you shlep through your days dully, finding positive moments here and there, your life will continue to be mostly dull. If you move through your days with powerful intent, with focused interest, with enthusiastic eagerness, well, life will provide you with things to be eager about. When life begins tossing you things to be eager about, it is easier to feel enthusiastic. Then enthusiasm for life becomes your conversation with Universal Consciousness. Life is a positive feedback loop.

Addendum: From Biologydictionary.net:  A positive feedback loop is a process in which the end products of an action cause more of that action to occur. This amplifies the original action.
