The majority of my life has been spent around negative people. Replacing that negativity with positive vibes is a must.
Everybody experiences the ups and downs in life. Those who deal with them best come out on top. Balancing the positives and the negatives is something we have to learn to do if we want to live a happy life.
Positive Vibrations!
Positive vibes are a state of mind. Every day we face different struggles that suppress these positive vibes. It's how we maintain our positivity that gets us through. When we forget the positives and succumb to the negatives we find ourselves slip into an abyss of negative emotion.
This is what causes a lot of depression and anxiety. You can have the shittiest life on the planet, and even still it's your choice to let that effect your state of mind or you can decide to be positive instead.
That probably sounds like a fortune cookie to those who're facing some harsh times, but it's true.
Take it from someone that's had a rough life. I've seen the deep pits of this society, its abuse and debauchery, it's not for the faint of heart. Though no matter what it throws at you, there's always life & living. It's the harshest moments that teach you this, that no matter how hard something may be at the time, there's always something worse worth defeating.
You can choose to hold your self back by giving in or you can choose to move forward.
Negative Vibrations
Negative vibes are a state of mind too. Once you realize this you realize how much you control their influence. Once you have control over the negative you control the positive as well.
Life is about finding balance. If you find there's a lot of negativity in your life then it's up to you to find some positives to balance the scales, or at least remove as much of the negativity as possible.
The best way to balance your mental is meditation. Yes, meditation. Focus on breathing. Focus on your body. These are two things that only you can control. By becoming more in touch with your body you learn how much you control your reality and how much control you actually have over your mentality too.
Negativity comes from lots of places. Negative people can push their negativity on you. You should cut these people off, or help them realize how toxic they've become. Not only people, but your surroundings as well. If you find your situation is negative then make a move, find a place that's peaceful, and reset your bearings.
Yin & Yang
I like to think of positive and negative vibrations as a constant battle between good & evil. It's a struggle between the two that we each have going on inside of ourselves. Whether we see it or not, it's always going on. Even the most positive person you know is maintaining their positivity constantly.
When it comes to the philosophy of Yin & Yang, Good & Evil are complementary to one and other. Without one you can't have the other. People who've had it the roughest tend to be the happiest inside because they've witnessed the most evil and have conquered it. I know this all too well. Without evil there is no good and vice versa.
Choose Wisely Padawan
Learn to identify the negatives & positives. Once you do you'll find yourself, your true self, the self that isn't suppressed by outside influence.
Everyone has their own personal experiences, both good & bad, but ultimately it's up to ourselves to choose how each experience shapes us. We can choose to disagree with everything and become cynical or we can choose to be more open to new ideas, whether they're correct or not, every experience contains something worth taking from.
Become a better version of yourself today by choosing to be positive instead of negativite. Push the scales in your favor and take control of your mentality. Rule your life before something else rules you.
