    You can maintain positive attitude by being conscious about your thoughts and your body language while interview. Body tone should be in comfortable manner so it automatically shows your attitude and firm belief of you with regard to UPSC as well. for e.g. you should not do very tight shake hand. it shows aggression within you, instead moderate shake hand is ok for it. You should make a habit of doing yoga/Pranayama daily to maintain yourself fresh and focused.

    Dear friend,
    in the success of any interview body language perform very important role.
    so.you require positive altitude and good body language in the interviews.
    some important tips for good body language are following:-
    1. Don�t cross your arms or legs � You have probably already heard you shouldn�t cross your arms as it might make you seem defensive or guarded. This goes for your legs too. Keep your arms and legs open.
    2. Have eye contact, but don�t stare � If there are several people you are talking to, give them all some eye contact to create a better connection and see if they are listening. Keeping too much eye-contact might creep people out. Giving no eye-contact might make you seem insecure. If you are not used to keeping eye-contact it might feel a little hard or scary in the beginning but keep working on it and you�ll get used to it.
    3. Don�t be afraid to take up some space � Taking up space by for example sitting or standing with your legs apart a bit signals self-confidence and that you are comfortable in your own skin.
    4. Relax your shoulders � When you feel tense it�s easily winds up as tension in your shoulders. They might move up and forward a bit. Try to relax. Try to loosen up by shaking the shoulders a bit and move them back slightly.
    5. Nod when they are talking � nod once in a while to signal that you are listening. But don�t overdo it and peck like Woody Woodpecker.
    6. Don�t slouch, sit up straight � but in a relaxed way, not in a too tense manner.
    7. Lean, but not too much � If you want to show that you are interested in what someone is saying, lean toward the person talking. If you want to show that you�re confident in yourself and relaxed lean back a bit. But don�t lean in too much or you might seem needy and desperate for some approval. Or lean back too much or you might seem arrogant and distant.
    8. Smile and laugh � lighten up, don�t take yourself too seriously. Relax a bit, smile and laugh when someone says something funny. People will be a lot more inclined to listen to you if you seem to be a positive person. But don�t be the first to laugh at your own jokes, it makes you seem nervous and needy. Smile when you are introduced to someone but don�t keep a smile plastered on your face, you�ll seem insincere.
    9. Don�t touch your face � it might make you seem nervous and can be distracting for the listeners or the people in the conversation.
    10. Keep your head up � Don�t keep your eyes on the ground, it might make you seem insecure and a bit lost. Keep your head up straight and your eyes towards the horizon.1.
