The Power of Positivity



I have posted about positivity before, and it was one of my most read posts. I strongly believe that you can never have enough positivity in your life, so here comes another positivity post!

When there is something that you want to achieve in life, the most important part in this process is to back yourself. Once you know that you can believe in yourself, it makes it so much easier for your actions to become a reality.

Having a positive outlook is vital to having a happy and successful life. Sometimes life can throw some really shitty obstacles our way, and if we aren't in the mindset of thinking positively, you aren't going to be able to recover as effectively from these obstacles.

You can't live or practise a positive life with a negative mindset. When you want to be positive and you decide to be, everything becomes clearer and easier. Exercise, investing time for yourself and being the best version of yourself.

Being positive is easier when you have surrounded yourself with like-minded, positive people. Having learnt this one the hard way, be mindful of the company that you keep. People have their own agendas, and their own issues, if you have someone in your life whose friendship just brings you down, makes you feel negative about yourself, or the conversation in general, brings out a side of you that you know is not the real you, why do you feel the need to act a certain way with this person? and why should you keep this friendship going if you get nothing but negativity and stress from it? - this is a sign of a toxic relationship, and one you should maturely walk away from.
We are all adults, we aren't always necessarily going to agree with one another, but instead of playing the blame game, we should all be confident enough to distance ourselves from friendships that we no longer feel nourish or support us.
Spend time with people who are supportive of your ambitions and who encourage you to be  the best that you can be.

Be strong enough to let go of those that weigh you down, and make the decision to spend more of your time with people who are as passionate as you are about the plans and ambitions you have for your life, or quite simply, those that enjoy life, are relaxed, love you for who you are and motivate you. 

Don't let others make you feel bad for the path that you have chosen to take, to lead a healthy and happy life. Some friendships last for as long as they need to, others last a lifetime.
