RE: Drab and boring...Not

in Reflections2 years ago

You said that it made you sad. Still, you find positivity in it and you appreciating honesty, passion, and personality.

One must find positives where at first there seems none as it helps see a better way forward and even in the worst adversity there's something positive to take away. Here's a couple examples.

  • Let's say I was horribly injured in a car wreck and spent a year in hospital having to learn how to walk again. Negative right? Yep of course but...did I die? Nope...so there's the positive.

  • Got fired from your job? Bad right? Negative too. But...Awesome, now I get the opportunity to skill-up, learn some things and redeploy into a different situation with greater understanding and in a more invigorated and re-energised way.

Maybe a bad examples maybe, but I think you get my point? There's always something positive to find and if you're the dude who doesn't know how to find them...learn how.

Sort:  

I get your point. Every negative thing has positivity also and we just need to find out it.

Yep...the thing itself might be the worst thing ever...but finding a positive in it and moving forward squeezes value from it, even just a little, and that's better than gaining no value at all. Shift your paradigm, push it outwards, there's often something great to be round beyond established lines.
