Helo everyone , welcome to another edition of the Sci-fi Multiverse Prompt.
So for me having a positive view about life is not just about pretending that everything is fine even when it is not fine, see this thing bis not about you smiling through pains or something,or that nothing really affects you, that one is forced positivity and I don't like it seriously, This life is real, things are happening, plans fails , and yeah situations will frustrate you an seriously that's fine, it's normal.
So for me, having a positive mindset is just really about you, how you doing choose to these things.
And honestly, I won't lie here, when things don not go as they have been planed, my first reaction is seriously not a calm and wise one, sometimes I overthink things, I get frustrated, I sit quietly and just wonder whhats wrong , I wonder why things are the way they are. I'm human, yeah.... And that's why I do feel things really deeply, so being positive doesn't mean that I get to skip that part.
Buy yeah... What I have come to learn over time is that, I don't like staying in a negative environment for too long, my people know me well for that, yes I do allow myself to feel bad but still after all that something inside me will now say " Oya o aunty what's next?" And that is when the positivity comes in for me
It is that small voice inside my head that tells me that one bad day cannot just cancel my whole life , likeeee do you understand? Because bi know people who fall in this category, we know that one failed plans doesn't mean that we have failed in life, one disappointment doesn't mean that everything one has planned is ruined.
That kind of shift in thinking really does make a difference.
I have also come.to realise that when one focuses too much on what has gone wrong, it just drains your energy as a person, and energy is too precious to waste.so now instead of asking the question "Why me" everytime, just try ask yourself Hmmm what can Iesrn from this, and seriously even if the Lesson is patience, one just has to try and learn.
Also another thing that i do believe in is that everything does happen for a reason, even when we don't understand what that means Immediately, that one believe alone can help me to stay grounded., and yes I feel that setbacks are actually redirection an dyou know that sometimes the door that closes is protecting you from somethimg form the other side
Positivity for me is also about gratitude, even in tough moments, there is usually something small to be thankful for, it might not fix the problem, but it shifts your focus slightly, and that slight shift can change your whole mood.
Of course, I don’t believe in toxic positivity. You can’t just ignore real issues and say “everything is fine” when it’s not Problems need solutions. Emotions need attention , but staying stuck in negativity doesn’t solve anything either.
So I choose balance, feel it, process it. Then move forward.
At seriously, the end of the day, having a positive view of life means believing that no matter what happens, I will be okay, Maybe not immediately, maybe not perfectly, but eventually , I will be.
And that belief alone gives me strength to keep going.
