Mind is a flexible mirror, adjust it, to see a
better world
Positivity- a frequently used, mostly without
really following it in the real sense, is a state of mind. The famous example
of how a person sees a half empty glass as a half filled glass still holds
relevance. The way green tea, yoga and many other things helps keep toxins at
bay, this one medicine called positivity helps in cleaning your soul, de-toxing
your mind and heart.
There is a story that comes to my
mind-
There was a
person named Aryan, who had survived a disastrous earthquake. Since then, he
was always scared to go out or do anything in his life. Though he did not want
things to be like the way they were, but at the end he would be missing
opportunities after opportunities in his life. Slowly and gradually, his health
started detoriating and even after ceaseless efforts of his friends, family and
well-wishers, he could not go back to his normal life.
This might
come across to many readers as a negative script, but I personally believe that
it’s all in the perspective. The message for me here is-
Things,
experiences and sufferings are part and parcel of each life, no matter of what
stature, from which background you belong. Hardships will come your way all
through your life. But it is utterly important for you yourself, to pull yourself
out of this situation, because no one is going to do it for you (though people
can sometimes help). It is read and said easily, but in real life, applying
these theories seem so difficult sometimes, almost impossible in certain
situations. But that’s the way it is. Things in life will go wrong, it’s bound
to go that way, no matter how cautious or good at heart you are. People are
going to hurt you, no matter how sweet you genuinely are. So why really care so much about these things
when you do not have control over them.
You as an
individual have to count your blessings yourselves. Feeling blessed with
whatever you have is essential. For me, on a personal note, there have always
been two ways of life:
1.
Finding
Peace: No matter what happens, look at the brighter side. Even if a situation
is as bad as loosing your closed one, just make peace with the fact and feel
thankful that they were once with you and you have memories of them. Because
there are a majority of people on this planet who even doesn’t have a person to
be called their loved ones.
2.
Striving
Success: For that, I would prefer negative approach of thinking about ones own
wants and then the things they still don’t have. This way we know what we
actually want and what are we going to work hard for?
The
medicine to all diseases is positivity, believe it or not, if you are positive,
things may not go the way you at the moment want them to be, but you will be
happy with all that’s there. This journey is yours, the success is yours, the
failures are your, accept it, embrace it and feel happy because its yours. People
will come people will go, some will stay, the others will leave. That’s life
and that’s completely normal. The true
measure of success is how many times you can bounce back from failure and not
the failures themselves.
No matter what your age is,
its always a right time to dream, it’s always a right time to let go, it’s
always the perfect time to start afresh. People cannot make you feel bad
without your permission. So never give them that.
There are certainly going to
instances where you would feel all is lost and nothing can go right now, that’s
the time to sit and cry, cry hard over whatever your heart holds. Crying is not
negative. It is a positive attitude towards life. After crying you feel fresh,
relived, light and would know what exactly you want. That’s the time, not to
sob and rethink over the issue but to emerge stronger and think past it. Start
again, fall again, lift yourself, dust yourself down and resume the journey
with new spirits.
