Am I Really A Negative Person?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hdi98f1uKK0

Listen to the song that is above...why? I don't know I guess it's good background music. Anyways, do you consider yourself a negative person? Or maybe you wonder why individuals be so negative in the first place. Throughout this article I will be discussing such things.

Complainers

Negative people seem to complain a lot. It's as if nothing can go right in their life, so they complain and lash out at others. It's crazy cause usually they blame others, when in reality they are the reason for their misfortune. They rarely look back and say "Hmmm maybe I did this to myself."

Comfort Zone

Negative people seem like they never want to move outside their comfort zone. In order to improve and stay in tune with the world around you, you must get out your "bubble" and explore. These negative people are doomed to dwell in their own sorrow, rather than changing it. These types of people also love using the word 'but'. The word 'but' is a definite turning point, turning something from positive to something negative.

Haters

Have you noticed that most negative people are haters in their own right. They always have something bad to say, no matter what someone does they have to find something bad. You always see them in the YouTube comment section. They come unto a random video just to hate on the person. Obviously cause their life isn't like that person, so they feel the need to bash them. It's quite sad if you ask me, but that's my feelings.

Energy Drainers

I feel as though they take all the energy out of a room. As soon as they enter the room, the tone changes to something worse than what it was. Have you ever have had great news, and then that certain person spins it to make it bad news.

Once again listen to the track above, and stop the previous track if you haven't. I don't know why, it just fits with the moment, or maybe I'm just on a Charlie Puth marathon....ANYWAYS just go with it...

In Conclusion, for those that deal with negative folks on a day to day basis, try to separate yourself from these people. They will do nothing but cause a downward spiral in your life. And if you are the one that is negative, try to find the positive in life. I know life can be hard, it's really tough, but you must keep moving forward. As I always say you think positive, you get positive results, you think negative...You know the rest.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
