“Once your mindset changes, everything on the outside will change along with it.”
Steve Maraboli
Having and maintaining a good mindset is vital for success in life . Unfortunately it is not always easy to stay positive and keep a good attitude.
As we move through our day we interact with many different types of people and have all sorts of good and bad experiences. When you encounter a negative disturbance, issue, or anything that frustrates you, there are usually 2 options:
Improve your perspective
Remove yourself from the situation
It really is that easy and if you break situations down, these are the most constructive things you can do.
You can choose how you are going to view and process a situation. You can choose to see it in a way that will ultimately benefit you, or you can allow all the things that are wrong with the situation to monopolise your attention and weigh you down. Start searching and focusing on the positive things about the situation. Perhaps it will point you in another direction, or, maybe it will teach you a much needed lesson. You just have to choose to see them and when you focus on the benefits, you will be amazed at how the situation will change for the better.
If you think that no matter how hard you try to see things differently and no matter what lessons you may learn, it still does not make sense to be in the situation, then your other option is to choose to remove yourself from it. Go another route. Do something else. Do not just wallow in negativity and allow bad situations to linger. Choose to do something about them.
In some situations, you may not be able to simply remove yourself from the situation. If that is the case, then you actually only have one option, and that is the first one … it is time to look at things differently and in a more positive light. Your main goal at all times must be to keep the best frame of mind.….Remember that you choose your mindset.
“Cultivate an optimistic mind, use your imagination, always consider alternatives, and dare to believe that you can make possible what others think is impossible.”
