You may be so far down that you thinks nothing is worth it anymore, but if you look for the good in things you'll realize that if you're so far down all you can do is go up. Life is a wonderful thing when you see the good. Don't be so negative about things. There's always some good, you just need to get out there and find it.

2. Live life with an open mind

Things aren't always as they appear; don't base a decision solely on what you see. Clearing your mind allows you to see things you didn't ever see before. With an open mind, you can let go of the negative control in your life and experience new changes. It helps you understand your mistakes and strengthen yourself from them.
