POSITIVITY vs NEGATIVITY.
We all receive both compliments and insults but what you choose to do with this is up to you. Every day I see posts with people ranting about insults or NEGATIVITY. I have received more than my share of insulting remarks over the years but at the same time I have received an abundance of compliments/pick me ups and plain POSITIVITY.
The advice I give to people s to focus on the positive and let the negative go!!! For every 10 compliments only 1 insult is given but for some reason people focus on that 1 negative. Every day I see people ranting about the insults they get on social median or in public about their Weight/Muscles/Makeup/Tattoos/Decisions and the list goes on. Rarely do I see posts about all the compliments they receive. We live in a messed up society where people think that they can't talk highly about themselves or what others say about them because they will be seen as cocky. For some reason we reward the people who post about how much they hate themselves but insult those who are confident (crazy right but yes this is exactly what happens).
Positivity = Confidence
Why is it that some people are so much more confident than others? I firmly believe its because they are able to focus on the positive. What do you think of my post that reads, "I feel fat and look gross and am depressed and I'm old and injured and nobody loves me and I'm a loser that nobody cares about and I suck at life and everyone is telling me horrible insults?" People would probably post positive uplifting things and try to make me feel better. Compare that this post "I'm awesome, I feel amazing, I look amazing, I am amazing". People would probably laugh about it behind my back and make fun of me. Notice how we literally accept and support people feeling shitty about themselves and try to uplift them but for those who feel great we try to bring them down rather than help keep them there. It's because of jealously that people are throwing out the insults. People feel better when they bring others down to their level.
IT'S SAD BUT TRUE!!!
Bottom line, forget the insults and focus on the positive. Stop feeling unattractive because 1/10 people say you are not. Start listening to the 9/10 who are feeding you positivity. I feel and think I am awesome and I am not afraid to say it. I'd rather be seen as "cocky" for being confident then have to live in a depressed state listening to a few losers who have nothing better to do then insult others. So please stop posting about the CRAP going on and start posting and focusing on all the good. Think about all the good that's out there. Before you know it we'll all be confident, happy and positive individuals with no reason to put others down!!!
