Be Mindful of The Good to Drown Out the Bad, And Not Accentuate the Bad and Mask Away the Good

Learn to get along with the not-so-good side of yourself, and learn to detach yourself with people that drain you.

Nobody is ever perfect, and no one can certainly maintain a positive emotion forever. On this journey of Life, there will be times when you hit a rough patch. Your boss may be threatening to dismiss you; your friend may be giving you the cold shoulder at a time when you need him or her most; your colleague may be coldheartedly mocking you; Life may be pulling your leg during time of despair. Even though you do not want any of such events to ever happen, any of such events will still find ways to slip into your Life.


However, coming face-to-face with certain negative events does not mean that there are no bright spots in some other aspects of your Life. Scientific studies have shown that our human brains are by nature attuned to negativity bias; we react to negative events almost instantly, while positive news take a dozen more seconds for our minds to sink in. Hence, you ought to give positivity a little more time to slowly walk into your Life. Also remember that even if you may be inadequate in some areas of Life, it does not automatically allow anyone the permission to treat you badly. There are many people out there who would find ways to pick out your shortcomings to put themselves in good light, when in fact, they may not be anywhere better off than you are as of this moment.

The world is like that, the good and the bad will often take turns for a hit at you. We ought to learn how to reaffirm ourselves during the good times, and how to console ourselves during the bad. There is no despair in Life that lasts indefinitely, and the wounds that may not have not fully healed today will eventually build you up to be a stronger person in the future.

How You See Yourself Ultimately Decides The Kind of Life You Will Live

Image
Until the moment when we finally find our souls, we are always being influenced by the environment we are in from a very young age. Our thoughts and beliefs are pretty much entirely shaped by our family and society.  However, what the world often says and what the world later does are often against each other. One day, when we feel that we are completely abandoned by the world, we will slowly come to a realisation and enlightenment. That is when our inner selves will grow to be stronger, we learn to ignore the naysayers, we form new perspectives on Life and gain alternative strategies on how to traverse this world we live in. It is at this moment that your inner soul is no longer as ignorant as it used to be; all sorts of Joker , big or small, will be born.  Joker (2019 film) From the Big Bang, to the formation of our solar system, to the existence of Mother Earth, to the creation of various lifeforms, to the evolution of Homo Sapiens, to the birth of your very self.

Start From The Things Where You Can Do Best, To Make The World A Better Place

To be able to make a contribution to mankind or the society can also be a kind of blessing. Take a step back and look at the Life most of us are going through thus far. In order to minimize inconvenience in our lives and the lives of others, most of us practice self-restraint. That is how the majority of us try to do in order to get us to where we are at various stages of Life. In the face of growing old and moving toward the livelihood of being an old man, the majority of us, at least, can perhaps attempt to shift away from our current standpoint or way of thinking of restraining ourselves towards something that speaks "do-what-you-love-to-do" as the focal point in living. One of the practical way of doing this is to transform that "who-am-I-doing-it-for" or "this-is-for-the-good-of-the-community" that forms the basis of our survival in today's context by adding in the element of "doing-what you-love-to-do". I deeply believe that

Courageous People Will Make Themselves Look Normal. 5 Signs Of "Courage" Based on Alfred Adler's Psychology Theory

Image
Those who lack courage, will resort to all means possible to look 'special'; those who possess courage, will blend themselves in as being 'normal'. Courage is the feeling in which you experience strength and you are of worth, as well as the belief that you can take on Life's problems. Life's going will never be all rosy and smooth-sailing, it may sometimes be due to work, interpersonal relationships, love relationships, or parent-child relationships; or it may also be due to a series of obstacles you faced along the way. Whenever we encounter difficulties, all of us are given two choices: one is to face it head on, and another is to run away from it. The latter of which is termed is Superiority Complex and Inferiority Complex. Let's take a look the 5 signs of "Courage" as advocated through Alfred Adler's school of thoughts.  The feeling that you are capable and worthy of achievements The crux of the problem is that avoiding problems
