Regretting not making the first move? Not enjoying having corporate life? Dating the wrong guy? Had kids too early? Have no social life? Envious of your Instagram friends?
Well, if you are someone who has completely negative thoughts about life. First of all, you are not alone. And secondly, there is only 1 solution to all your negative thoughts. No kidding!!! Just one!!! And it is more than enough!!!
But first, you need to read my story:)
I had a mental breakdown.
That’s true!! There was a time in my life when I had no friends, no work & no ray of happiness. It was indeed a tough period. Everything was dark!! And my room was the darkest!!! Oh yes, I kept my lights off all the time (lol). But yeahhh… Jokes apart, I was watching Netflix and surviving mostly on cheezy Pizzassss!!
I don’t know if it was depression or something normal. But it was damnnn hard. The only thing that I know was that I wasn’t me!!! And I knew I can’t survive like this. But, it was even really hard to you know, get out of that comfort zone of doing nothing and just lying on my bed.
So, I started with small things. I started by switching on my room’s lights. I swear it wasn’t easy!!! The switch was on the other side of my bed and my lazy ass, what can I say now!!! (Hahaha)
I tried everything from making my own meals, face-timing my old friends, going out, etc etc… Honestly, things started to change as well. It made me more energetic and less frustrated!!! ugh!!
But what made me even stronger was the practice of Gratitude in every little thing. When you have a lot of me-time, sometimes a miracle happens. And I kind of understood I chose this life. It is the way I made it. So why am I regretting it? Even more importantly, regretting what has already happened is going to help me in any way? The answer was no!!!
So simply put, I chose appreciation over resentment. And it actually did wonders!!! Soon… everything changed!!! The world became a beautiful place!! My home mates liked being my friends. I also started enjoying their company and you know how damnnn important company is!!! I never looked back after that!!!
Be Grateful
There is only one thing that you have to do to stay optimistic in your life. And that is to start appreciating this. Have faith in the universe that whatever happens, it happens for the good. Try to appreciate things even in the worst times.
You know, there was this rich businessman (I don’t think I remember the name). But his office was on fire. The whole office burnt. Everything from documents to the infrastructure. But one thing that was still alive was HIM. And if you would have looked at his face at that time, you would not believe it. He was hardly sad even though all his hard work went in vain. He said, I was actually thinking of renovating it, so it’s good that this happened. I was SPEECHLESS when I read that!!! Damnnnnnn, this man lost everything and still had everything!! And honestly, this is how you live! Ups and downs are part of life. So, enjoy every bit not just the happy moments. Find something nice even in the worst of times!!! I am damnnn sure, nobody can beat you in life after that!!!
