Staying Positive in a Negative World: Infecting people with positivity

Everyone wants to be happy. It’s human nature. Most people live their entire lives seeking pleasure over pain, joy over anger, happiness over sadness, and good over bad. However, even though everyone actively seeks out positivity over negativity, we are all surrounded by a negative environment. We all live in a negative filled world. So how does one stay positive in a society that seems to feed off of negativity?

It’s commonly known that negative emotions that are constantly bottled up, that over time they eventually erupt into overwhelming emotions. So, what if someone does that with positive emotions? What if instead of bottling up negative emotions they bottle up positive emotions and let them explode and infect those around them. This bottling up of emotions doesn’t have to be over a long period of time, it could be as short as a minute.

A constant repetitive process of letting go of negative emotions, not necessarily lashing out at others but not allowing them to impact you (similar to a philosophy I recently picked up called Stoicism), and bottling up positive emotions to the point of it eventually exploding so that they can (positively) impact those that surround you. Easy to do and easy not to do. (Click here if you didn’t read my first blog yet.)

I’ll be the first to admit, I’m not always positive 100% of the time. It’s extremely tough when traumatic events occur, specifically when my auntie passed away this month on the 14th. However, I’ll be the first to admit that I’m more positive than negative; also that I’m more positive than negative during negative situations. However, I know that I can always improve and my first step to improvement is to infect you guys with and everyone around me with positivity. With that being said, I know each and everyone of you can do the same.
