We love #UnfilteredGrind #FANS!
So we had another fan letter!!! Woohoo!!! We love to hear
from you guys! So Ashley* wrote us and she wanted to know how we remain to stay positive
in our lives. Well Ashley, it’s not easy! Keeping a good attitude is a choice.
We have to literally wake up and tell ourselves that we will have a good day.
There is always a bright side. Do we have negative things happen? Well that’s
all perspective. What can appear to be a negative event may be your blessing in
disguise! Example, you lose your job. Well instead of lamenting over the spilt
milk think about it this way, maybe that job wasn’t the job for you and that on
the horizon you will find the career you were meant to have! Things happen all
the time and it’s only when we experience discomfort can we learn from life
and grow as individuals. So next time life hands you lemons, like the saying
says, girl go make you some lemonade!
Keep yourself smiling and positive. It
helps if you surround yourself with positive individuals too, that way when you
feel down, a quick chat with your friend/coworker and you are back feeling
optimistic about life. So after you read this, go figure out the things you
like to do that can cheer you up or bring peace to your mind. That way next
time you are feeling out of sorts you can retreat to that activity and find
happiness. I.E., listen to music, go for a run, read a book, etc. That way when
you go to address the things in your life you need to change you will have a
better attitude, clearer head, and ability to focus.
P.S. Make sure your happy/peaceful activity is drug/alcohol
free. Why? Well, because those substances only provide with a temporary substitute
for running away from your problems. When you come down you will find that you
still have the same problems and possibly even more problems than you started
with. There is also the danger of addiction, i.e., more problems. If you know anyone who needs help with addiction check out the link below for help!
In regards to Ashley*, we changed her name for the sake of her privacy and to keep her anonymous.
