Positive mind development is in the direction of higher frequencies. Higher frequencies gives a more precise understanding and a wider outlook. It supports non violence, compassion and harmony.
We can make ourselves open for these higher frequencies by systematic practice. Meditation is normally a part of such exercises.
In our ordinary life, we use mind to deal with the issues at hand. While we do so, we get experiences and knowledge. When new situations appear, we use the old experiences and knowledge.
This is good, but it also has a conserving tendency. We solve the old problems in the old way, rather than seek for better ways of acting.
Solving everyday problems and practice for positive mind development is normally different things. Very different. In order to solve everyday problems we might use means like degradation, humiliation and violence. These means are contrary to positive mind development.
The lower the frequency level is in our mind, the more we feel stuck in our situation. The more inclined we might be to use bad means as violence and humiliations. In these cases, mind makes it more difficult for mind to start a positive development.

Nature of mind
All suffering is caused by ignorance, it is claimed in Buddhist philosophy.
It is three-fold ignorance. Ignorance about the environment, ignorance about me and ignorance in the mechanism of understanding reality.
In order to see reality as it is we need to see more than we usually do. But if we just expand our ability to see, we get overwhelmed by the number of observations.
As our normal observations are faulty, we use thumb rules for interpretation. These rules are often faulty.
The universe in which we live is complex and fast changing. We can not follow this with our awareness in real time. We can not follow even the processes in our own body. We leave the cells to decide about their doings.
Is this ignorance for ever?
Well, there is one escape. It is nature of mind.
Nature of mind is the ability of mind to read and follow the highest frequencies.
We can train ourselves and thus approach higher and higher frequencies.
