How to overcome negativity in life?

The process of balancing life and coping with the negativity starts with the realization of 3 things

1st - That you really want to do it!
2nd -That You can do it!
3rd - That you are already doing it!

The regret of uncompleted tasks and unaccomplished goals is what wears us down and creates toxicity in our present life,


We keep on dangling between the guilt of missed deeds and anxiousness of uncertain future.

It is similar to the situation when one gets stuck in traffic, you can either accept the fact that you are stuck, and keep moving forward gradually with a happy mind or you can choose to grim over the traffic every few seconds and distort your mental peace, The choice is always ours, we don't realize that.

Suppose there is a rotten apple in a basket and its stinking, you can either choose to simply say its stinking once and move on or you can keep on singing its praises like a song for many many hours,

when you choose to talk about the negative experiences of life, you are in a way filling your brain with negative contexts and thoughts, and when that is the case, when the input is negative in context, you can never expect happiness or good emotions as an output.

This is the basic principle or operation for everything around us, you water a plant with acidic water, it would never bloom but die eventually, but if you nurture it with care and proper nutrition, it will bloom for days and years to come.

The point is not that we always have to have positive emotions and aspect towards everything in life, that is not possible at all, there will always be bad phases and certain amount of negative influence around us.

but if we can practice and choose to spend minimum time analyzing and talking about negative things in life, the amount of its influence on our consciousness will also decrease.

The life becomes easier not when we never get angry or upset, but when we overcome that state of negative emotion in the shortest span of time. that is what real control is about.

And that is how you can truly overcome the state of negative existence in life.

Live, Laugh, Love๐Ÿ’“

Do you see what I see?

Do you see what I see? Definitely not! Even if we all look at the SAME thing, at the SAME moment, we cannot see the SAME thing. If we remove the scientific angle from the explanation and only try to understand the philosophical or experiential angle, we would know that it is impossible for two people to look at things in the precisely the same way. How we experience things, places and people around us depends on our past experiences, our mental status and a lot other internal things. Though we can try to relate with others around us in a similar settings, we never know what they must be feeling exactly, sometimes they themselves don't know. Having difference of opinion is completely normal, very rarely it will be the case that two individuals can completely agree on something, and we should understand and respect that without any ego or negative perception. We all have a different life philosophy, different goals, different learnings, We all cross paths with each other for a short ...

Don't try too hard to fit in, let things fall in place with time!

Trying too hard to fit-in in any group, community, society or network can often lead to a feeling of being left alone. It can also be pointed as one of the reasons behind people feeling lonely or unacceptable at times. But, think it this way, Resistance is a very natural phenomenon, everything in nature resists change at every level. Change can only be brought upon with gradual and positive efforts, that's is the only way, or else it will feel like an act of suppression or intrusion. When we try too hard to fit in, we make ourselves vulnerable to others opinions, we do things which don't actually align well with our core nature, we try too hard for others to like us that at times we even start compromising our self esteem and self-belief for it. This act of getting validation from others and seeking a sense of belonging is what makes us feel lonely and sad when the expected feelings are not reciprocated from the other end. A few things which I can think of, which might help you...

I am not who you think I am; I am not who I think I am; I am who I think you think I am

"I am not who you think I am; I am not who I think I am; ๐ˆ ๐š๐ฆ ๐ฐ๐ก๐จ ๐ˆ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ค ๐ฒ๐จ๐ฎ ๐ญ๐ก๐ข๐ง๐ค ๐ˆ ๐š๐ฆ" Yes! read it again, and let it sink in for a while. This quote by Thomas Cooley says a lot about how we perceive and judge our own selves. How we indulge in the act of being liked, praised and recognized by others and how we lose our own identities to become someone who after a point doesn't resemble the real us. We all start out with a dream, a dream that makes our eyes shine, which makes us all welcome the rising sun, But as we grow up, we let go of those dreams and start doing things that would make our parents, relatives, neighbors or even strangers proud. We shed the wings of our desires only to rest in the safe nests, we get so trapped within our own minds, that we neglect to see the real world. We give up our dreams of a lifetime, just so that some people will one day pat our back. But is it really worth it? Is it really worth to live for an identity...
