Negative people are human beings that constantly bring you down. They seem to interrogate a conversation just to specify what your doing. “Oh you need to do this”,” Your doing this the wrong way”, “your never make it”, or “just give it up”. Negative people seem to have the answer when in reality 99% of the time it’s them that need advice or help.
Positive people are people that love you and inspire you. They encourage you no matter the consequences or results…
Most of the people in urban areas would say they have more negative people than positive. The truth be told it doesn’t matter where your from, how rich you are, or what race because everybody experiences it. Family, so-called Friends, Neighbors, and Teachers can all be negative in some way. This negativity changes are way of thinking, it changes our decisions, and paths of life.
How many of you have positive people in your life?
Isn’t a great feeling?
To have someone there to inspire you, adore you, love you, and encourage everything you do just to see you be happy.
Some of you get it from your parents, siblings, or friends. However when it’s a negative outcome, it always hurts the most when it comes from these specific people. If your mother says "you’ll never make it in that", how do you take that? The person who gave you life doesn’t approve of your decision.
This story was one I’d never forget because I don’t have a good relationship with my mother either. However, I could never do such a thing. I hardly ever get the girl either but that doesn’t mean I’m going to take it out on everyone. Even so, I could very much understand where he was coming from. If there is one thing I have learned is that people are going to have their opinions. Mother or not if they are negative in your life, let them go.
I went for almost two years without talking to my mom and it didn’t hurt one bit. “I keep the positive people in, and let the negative ones go”. She doesn’t believe in nothing I do. She pretends to agree just so you can be satisfied. However, the number one reason for keeping her out is that she does not listen. No matter the situation, No matter who’s it about, she will shake her head like she is listening. Yet if you bring it up two days later, or a month later she’ll say “you didn’t tell me” or "you didn't say that".
Growing up, I have had so-called haters. I have had people call me ugly, tell me I can’t sing, and so on. I have had negativity come from all aspects of people. No matter what, I got through it by leaving the positive ones in. Life is hard if no one is uplifting you so I took every little positive word and instilled it in my head.
Not every girl thought I was cute, but some did. So the ones that did, I kept in mind that not every girl is going to think I’m attractive. For the people that said I couldn’t sing, I kept in mind that I’ve gotten standing ovations. I also understood that I couldn’t be on key all day, 24/7. I sang on the Internet when 56k was modern technology and got so many compliments. My first website was just pictures of me, and I didn’t get 100’s of emails or comments but I got a few from ladies all around the world. The little things that count can be so much bigger if you just listen and focus more on the positives.
I have a friend that always deals with this because subconsciously he wants everyone to like him. He fears REJECTION! Who doesn’t? My advice to him was that “you can’t save the world”. Superman can save the world but that still does not mean everyone is going to respect him or like him. In a sense, haters do exist to make us stronger. Our weakness is truly dealing with it. Either you will overcome it, or end up taking it out on others.
Your brain works very much like a battery. You have negative terminals and positive terminals. Do you know what happens when you jump start a car with the terminals mixed up? The result is the same analogy you need to give your brain. So when you need a jump start, don't even consult the negative terminal. You don't even need to put it on the battery to jump it anyway right? So when your feeling down, only consult the positive terminal, the positive people and leave the negative terminal, the negative people to the side. The positive people who always keep you charged as though positive charging cables would a battery.
In conclusion, “You have to Let The Negative Ones Go, and Leave the Positive Ones In”. This essential for a healthy way of thinking for your future decisions and life.
Sincerely,
