Hello, everyone.
I welcome you to my blog. One way to go far in life and achieve all that you dream of and want to achieve is by staying positive and not giving room for negativity or negative people. Both negativity and positivity are contagious, which is why we are all advised to surround ourselves with positive people only; as if we have negative people around, the tendency of becoming like them becomes high. When you want to get something done or achieve something, aside from determination, one thing that helps to fuel your desire to actually achieve that thing is positivity; positivity is a game changer.
Once you enter a room full of negative people, you can feel the energy; it is the same thing when you enter a room filled with positive people; both negativity and positivity are energies. We must know that one is meant to help you go up while the other is meant to run you down, so you choose what you want, if you want to move forward or be dragged backwards. Positivity helps you see things from a different perspective; it helps you to see the opportunity in things, whereas when you give negativity the chance, it stops you from grabbing those opportunities. Positivity brings about progress while negativity hinders it; there are so many reasons as to why we must stay positive and surround ourselves with positive people too.
We all must have had experiences about how both work and which one is better; positivity helps you to see the light in things and helps to keep the hope alive, whereas all that negativity does is blur the vision and stop you from seeing the great things around you; it kills the hope you have. Many of those who fell into depression were not in any way positive, nor did they surround themselves with positive people, so it gave depression the power to creep in on them. Negativity makes you sad, but positivity keeps you happy, and there is no way a happy person falls into depression.
There are a few ways I have decided to follow in order to help me stay positive in this new year, one of which is to have a positive mindset and mentality, always see the good in situations whether good or bad, and never let those negative thoughts creep in when things don't go as planned, as it is nearly impossible for everything to always go as planned. It is left for one to accept them as they play out instead of letting it bring about negative thoughts.
Images used are mine.
Another way that works all the time is by surrounding myself with positive people; once I realize somebody is the type that is always negative, I try to avoid them because, like I said earlier, both positivity and negativity are both contagious. If you hang around negative people, you tend to become like them, and the same when you hang around positive people.
Having a positive mindset is a good thing and I’m glad you’re adopting it this year. It might not always go as planned but the important thing is to just do as you say you will do.
