Hashem wants more than anything that we should feel His unlimited love for us in particular on an individual level (see Chovos Halevavos Shaar Ahavas Hashem), and to go around with menuchas hanefesh, simchas hachaim, and a healthy connection with Him, which is the point of all Torah and mitzvos (see Vilna Gaon on Mishlei 22:19).
A smart person checks himself to see if the way that he is doing Torah and mitzvos is actually making him a bigger better happier healthier person with a healthier connection with Hashem. If not, you may be going down the wrong highway, and time to make a u-turn. Get yourself a rebbi that understands you and knows how to bring out the best of you, and how turn you into a bigger better and happier person.
Everything about Torah and mitzvos, the world, and life at large, is positive, positive, positive. If you are coming out of anything with a negative feeling, then obviously you are taking the wrong message.
Human nature is to go after negativity (yeitzer leiv haadam ra miniurav), but we came to this world to go the opposite of our nature (see Vilna Gaon at the beginning of Even Sheleima), and to go specifically after positivity and only positivity. And the more we focus on positive, like on our own personal good qualities, the more we will receive. Hashem likes happy campers.
A person that lives with Hashem is not afraid of anything, and knows that no one could harm him even if he tried.
All Hashem asks is that we do our daily exercise of Emunah and bitachon (for and that makes us for 10 minutes a day), in Englishexample, thanking Hashem automatically perfect and amazing.
A positive person is great, but a negative person that does a daily exercise in becoming positive is even better.
