Have you ever been caught in a mental trap of negativity? There is a simple solution: Reseed the lawn that is your mind. You already have the solutions to the problems that vex you. I wrote the post above a little over 7 years ago. My former self was talking to my current self. The solution is truly simple. Just fill my mind with positivity. Act as if. I can’t think my way to feeling better, I must act my way into better feeling. The choice is mine and mine alone. Granted the world may throw challenges my way, but life is 10% what is dealt to you, and 90% how you react to it. I have to focus on the 90%, that which is in my control, my reaction to the world.
Do I wish things were different than what they are? A whole-hearted Yes. A wish alone is not going to change my reality. Only action has the power to change reality. And that action needs to be positive. Am I engaging the world from a place of peace and happiness, or am I in a place of discord and negativity?
The real voyage of discovery consists not in seeking new landscapes, but in having new eyes.
– Marcel Proust
I know what it’s like to be in negativity, and I know what it’s like to be positive. I merely need to choose and to act accordingly. If you see me, I’ll be the one with the bag of seeds, casting them onto the lawn I call my mind. Be well and reseed your own lawn.
