Positive mindset.

Try to think good thoughts only, because you are what you think. So if you think good thoughts only and try to filter what goes on in your head positively then the results will be evident in your life! Mind over matter, everyone~~~ 

A lot of people think they can't be happy because of where they are in life or because they think the people around them are negative and all these other external factors. But I personally think that happiness and positivity radiate from within. After all, we are the ones who are labeling our surroundings as "negative" and "unhappy" even "depressing" ( See! Our surroundings are what we make of it! They seem bad bcs we think it's bad ) so let's say someone does criticize you for something ( and not the constructive type of criticism ), people tend to take criticism harshly, they overthink themselves into crumbs of unhealthy negativity. Just don't do it! Don't overthink it to that point. Of course you have to take what other people say into consideration but they shouldn't have the power to make you feel like shit. The only person who has the power to make you feel like shit is yourself ( and your mom ) ( jk sorry mom, ). Why would you wanna beat yourself up over someone else's opinion?? 

Ok 

So if you don't understand what I've been trying to say, it's ok. It's mainly for me. I was looking at the world & at my situation in the wrong light. I had to take a step back to assess what was going on in my life. Sure it was a hasty step, I'm not quite sure if it was the right step to take, but I'm still alive and I still have the chance to make today a better day for myself ( and hopefully others ). Don't be that person with the negative vibes la. People can feel it you know, it's an energy you emanate ( no no no I'm not gonna start talking about chakras and soul colors haha ). FOR REAL THO it's like plastered on your face! Not literally, 

Mhhmm,

There's really no conclusion to this yet, I'm still not 100% the happiest/positive-est person ahaaa I still need work on filtering my thoughts and projecting good thoughts only. Things take time. And time is subjective. It might take a long time for me but a short time for you ?? I might think 7 years is a long time and you might think 7 years is an eternity of time. Correct my sentence leh I'm not sure about the tenses. Anyway, yeah, be happy! Life is so short. Time doesn't really matter as long as you're trying, especially since this is self-improvement and not a college assignment! I hope wherever you are, things get better :)
