Will You Listen to the Storm of Disapproval or Your Voice of Reason???

in #mindset6 years ago
Greetings, fellow Steemians!

Today, I want to tell you a story that is in itself a mindset for when it comes to the way we interact with the world around us.
It is said that once, a few frogs had been passing through the forest when two of them fall into a well. The other frogs gather on top of the well and whisper amongst themselves as the two struggle to get out of the well. In spite of their solid efforts to get out of the well, the other frogs think that they have no chance. Some of them even go so much as to suggest that they should just give up and accept their doom.

‘It is in vain!’ Says one of the frogs,
‘No way they are getting out of that hole safe and sound!’ Goes another voice.
The two fallen frogs keep struggling nonetheless. As they are making the climb, the voices of the other frogs become louder and clearer.
‘Why are you still fighting?’
‘You have no chance. No chance of succeeding.’
Eventually, one of the frogs succumbs to this chant of madness and falls to his death at the very bottom of the well. The other frog manages to reach the top and save himself, much to the wonder and dismay of the other frogs.
‘How did you manage to do it?’ One of them asks.
‘But it was impossible!’ Another follows.
The frog stays silent. At the peak of their curiosity, the other frogs eventually learn that the frog who found his salvation was, in fact, deaf.

In our everyday life and on the road to success, we meet a lot of people whose voices are nothing but pale shadows of emptiness. The void of their energy distracts us from our path and reduces our speed in arriving at the place we want to be. This is inevitable, as most people you meet in life or those who are around you often find it hard to believe in the same dreams that have given you sleepless nights. Those people may not actually want you to fail, but it goes a long way for them to believe in the possibility of succeeding in a path of unexpected and unlikely things.
In their incessant babble of disapproval and negativity, the people around us take away the positivity that drives us forward and the hope that lights the passion in our hearts. Eventually, you will find yourself sucked into a whirlwind of this negative energy that will lead to your downfall.

You may not have the courage to distance yourself from those who would harm you in this way, as we discussed in a one of the previous posts, but the least you could do is try to be like the frog who saved himself, because he couldn’t (or wouldn’t) pay heed to the negativity that stood in his way.
Whatever you do in life and wherever you go, the negativity always finds a way to hunt you down, but have faith in your own will; It is up to you to decide whether you will pay attention to this storm of disapproval or disregard it completely and listen to the voice of reason that resides in your heart.


I apologize for not being able to respond to everyone who writes meaningful comments and actively participating in this community but you who are here will always have my upvote as a way of thanking and everyone knows that and I have the goal to help everyone achieve an upgrade in life of all of you every day and form a community that wants to program your Positive Mindset and help each other and so we will be a unique community where the main foundations are the respect, the generosity that can serve for many people. The world needs more and more like this, believe me. And for this I ask the effort of all of you to invite new people to this blog and this can be done through the rest and inviting friends who want to be part of this with all of us.

I have been working very hard on this blog since the beginning. I have a very busy life but I am giving my best and believe me I have shared experiences that I have been coaching thousands of people and I know that the change of the Mindset should be daily. I am already grateful to see you giving upvotes to each other and you can see this with the fact that many already have 8, 9, 10 upvotes. But I'm sure that with the effort of all of us we will see a community with, 40, 50, 80 upvotes and for that everyone should get engaged so we can make it come true. I believe and we can!

***Remember Community: Please, if you commented on a new post I did, please always go back to the previous one because if someone in the community commented lastly because of time zone differences it will be without your upvote and that would not be fair.

You all know the goal we can reach: 50+ Upvotes each others!

A BIG HUG!!!

Sort:  

Some people failed, not because they were not able to do so but failed due to lack of determination and perseverance. The light of their passion was put out. Seeing other people striving to succeed, they were convinced that they too would not do it because they compare others to themselves who failed. Most of the time, people measure others' ability to succeed based on their own experience thus spreading the negative spirit when they themselves are a failure. So in here, we understand the power of words: it can make us cripple or empower us to go on. Sometimes there are people who wish for our fall, and when we fell, they try their best to keep us there. But it's up to your determination to rise up.

Its important for all of us to stay positive, think positive and work with positive attitude. No matter in what type of situation we are stucked into but a positive approach will definitely take out out from the problem.
Dear friend @chbartist though i said it before but again would like to thank you for your dedicated efforts to post blog on daily basis without fail. I know your schedule is busy and you manage to post daily and understand that sometimes you may not have time to reply everyone as we are a growing community and replying everyone may not be possible sometimes. Am happy that you inform the community about it that you read each and every message and upvote all. Thanks again for your efforts. Have a great day friend.

Yeah again you share a great story bro @chbartist!!!ifsomebody thinks that he wants a success in his life and if he will work hard nobody can stop him...

Posted using Partiko Android

Yes, no one can stop him except himself.

We have a lot of people around us that try to discourage us in daily life. They leave no point in pulling us down to the drain. But it depends upon us that how we take them. If we want to achieve success then we have to ignore them and should move forward.
Have a good day @chbartiat

Sometimes it is important to ignore the detractors that only think of themselves or what society believes should be said; move forward with your true north of what you believe no matter what it takes.

Motivational story
It is compulsory to stay positive. Positivity gives us hope. First of all we have to pay attention about out negative attitude. We have to control ourself, don't be panic, don't be negative. At the last patient pays off.

This is also in case of steem. The price of steem is now less than 0.53$ at this time we have to be patient . So after the darkest night sun will shine.we will again see the steem above 4$.
Hope for the best. Sty positive and calm . So you can achieve everything in your life

Excelente publicación, actualmente la comunidad ha sido algo que ha quedado en la historia, se han perdido los valores de solidaridad, fe, esperanza, respeto, fortaleza y cooperación. Para el cerebro es mas fácil pensar en cosas negativas, pues de alguna manera distrae tu mente de actuar, esto verdaderamente es contagioso y nos volvemos conformistas al grado del desinteres social y despreocupado por nuestros compañeros, vecinos, familiares y amigos, es difícil cambiar la mentalidad y los hábitos, pero con esfuerzo y entrega lo que uno pueda lograr es suficiente para que otro se sume a la causa y adopte hábitos que sean positivos y el éxito y beneficio sea compartido.
Soy nueva en steemit, me alegra encontrar personas con iniciativa y personalidad, Saludos!

In moments of despair, the voice of reasons then becomes the last resort. Great morning food for the soul. Good morning friends. Thankz @chbartist

That's amazing inspirational stuff, and yes, I am a part of your upvoting community. happy to be a part of a change.
keep flourishing.

Ya this upgrade Ur think

Ooh I think I might've heard a version of the "frog well" story a long long time ago, to the point that I've almost completely forgotten it... But very recently I've happened upon the real life example of this behaviour in animals -- the so-called "Crab mentality", describing the behaviour of crabs in a bucket as those struggling to crawl out are pulled back inside by the lower rungs.
So I'm afraid it may be a natural instinct for some, and in the past I must admit I've felt some bitterness myself at what I saw as "abandonment". But I've learned to dissect, understand and negate this negative impulse (hopefully completely).

Rise above the animal nature, you are a being of greater purpose!

Appreciated,

In my humble opinion I believe that we should be optimistic and always keep the Faith in ourselves, without allowing anything or anyone to extinguish that internal flame that gives us the strength to achieve our dreams or goals. Who knows and we are leaving some teaching to those voices with our effort? Who knows, capable...

It is believed that when you think negatively, you emit negative energy to the universe and the universe multiplies that energy into a number of small atoms which gets bombarded back to you.At the same time when you think positively the absorption and emission power of the universe gets multiplied by 10 times and the retaliation power is not only sent to you but to the people surrounding meaning your closed ones. Hence always have a positive attitude, be optimistic and keep this theory in mind!!

wao ... the frogs murmuring and none was able to say: Let's help !!! .. Unfortunately this is the way of life .... people mutter and are not able to help others ... if someone does not help you , even with a tip ... then do not pay attention if what tey want are to diminish your dreams ..

As vezes temos que nos fazer de surdo diante da negatividade

Sometimes it is our own negativity that holds us back or causes us not to succeed. I loved this story @chbartist. Thanks so much for sharing. We need to remember to not allow others or ourselves to stop us from achieving our goals. Upvoted and resteemed :-)

Yes the story is truly a mindset..... thanks @chbartist for sharing. Mind you i just wrote something similar to this post just you can check it via this link below: https://steemit.com/life/@sannihorlas/what-is-your-goal

People have problems, problems full everyone bad energy, but depends everyone like take the bad situation. Once I read that if your problem have solution why are you worried? And if you problem don't have any solution then why are you worried? That's true. We should worry less and be more happy.

Many people don't want to do aces and who never don't lose

You may not have the courage to distance yourself

Sometimes, it’s not courage that gets in the way; but, having to be in the same home as the negative energy. That’s why God says it’s good to “bridle your tongue” in the silent peace of restraint (2Corinthians 10:5).

listen to the voice of reason

Lol! Ofttimes, there is no "reason" in the natural for what God speaks us to do in the supernatural. But, it’s essential to pleasing Him, and fulfilling His Purpose.

Of course, what God speaks us to do never defies His Word. So, if it’s an evil voice, know that it’s not of God; for there is no evil in Him.

Peace.

This is a very timely post for me right now, as I am struggling against seemingly slim odds of winning the many battles of life..not against naysayers or negative influence. I am struggling against my own self centeredness. Living in self reliant isolation, has made my life spiral out of control.

"...life run on self will can hardly be a success. On that basis we are almost always in collision with something or somebody, even though our motives are good." (Big Book of AA, p. 60)

get your self centeredness to a meeting

superb article @chbartist. i have noticed one thing often on your post. your article is always linked to life. you are very different from other on steemit. are you a writer? and your post does not belong to one or two lines this shows that you are a writer. i know you are a song writer. i support you my Guitarist.

I think the most important realization in life is the power of optimism.

Yes! Success!

Acredito muito nisso também

i'm not deaf but faith in something far greater than myself and just being too stupid/stuborn to give in seems to work for me;)
