TAKING THE POSITIVE
OR NEGATIVE ROUTE
THINGS CAN always be worse, but they can always be better
too. It’s up to you to decide which route to take when you
reach that fork in your decision – making road. Of course
things are going to happen that are out of your control or that
set you off course and take you in a different direction than
you intended to be going in … but that’s when your resolve
and dedication to your path kick into over-drive … or doesn’t.
It may seem nonsensical, but your mood and general outlook
play a general guiding role in that. If you decide to beat
yourself up and dwell on the negativity, you’re refusing to
move forward. Even if you think you are, or are capable of
still moving forward, you’re not. You’re fooling yourself.
That negativity snowballs and grabs other negative aspects of
your life and areas that you feel you can be doing better in,
and brings them to the forefront of your mind. Misery loves
company, right? Negativity comes in all different shapes and
sizes, colors and textures, so it may be hard to recognize …
but you can train yourself to. Cleanse yourself of it wherever
and whenever possible. Hate, jealousy, envy, greed, self-doubt,
self-loathing, are all forms of negativity. – They all exist
but don’t have to. Flip it on them. Substitute in; love, trust,
admiration, generosity, belief in yourself, pride - But not the
selfish stubborn kind, the motivating ‘I can do this’ kind. The
former is just negativity disguised. Just like the negativity
snowballs, so does the positivity. Set the course of which way
it goes, by the choices you make. And again, there’s no exact
right and wrong, good and bad. There’s just right & wrong
and good & bad – for you. You decide what that means. Do
away with the negative thoughts and actions, negative beliefs
and people. Each and every one of those are dispensable if
you’re trying to be positive … they’re just negativity disguised.
Does positivity disguise itself too?
