How to Become The Best Version of Yourself

As you wake up in the morning you think to yourself about all the things that you need to get done. You walk around your home and see what's out of place. You believe you can always do more so you can please your family. You hyper-focus on all of your unchecked chores, dilemmas, imperfections, faults, dust, and dirt. You can't help but be a negative nancy. Sometimes you don't even realize you are doing it. You're grateful for your family and the life you have made, but you just can't seem to climb out of that negative mindset.

Some people develop negativity because of their genetic makeup, which makes them feel depressed, anxious or easily overwhelmed. Our brain can sometimes distort reality, often creating negative narratives. Some see the negative in life because of the way they were brought up in life. If your dad got upset about a small mess on the floor and become very angry about it. Or maybe you have seen your parents be negative about their appearance. Children look at this and think maybe that is the way I am supposed to act. Hence your upbringing. Sometimes though, this isn't always the case.

Change the way you see the world. Not everything is bad. I mean, yes, there are a lot of bad in the world, that we are unable to change for the most part, but there is a lot of good in the world as well. If you are unable to see the good in the world, then let me enlighten you.

• The sun, it's shining. That's a good thing right?
• The trees give us oxygen to live.
• Chocolate milk, who doesn't like chocolate milk?
• Pets can make us so happy.
• The sun and the moon, giving us light in the dark.
• A roof over our heads.
• Food to eat.
• Time with loved ones in which we mustn't take for granted.
• Good music.

Those are only a few things that are good in this world. It is up to you to look for the good. If you stop seeing the bad in everything, then you will be on track to becoming the best version of yourself.

As for people I can not say they are all good, but there are some good people in the world in which we call home.

Negativity can show it's self in many shapes and forms.

• Not being happy with the way you look is one of the top reasons for negativity. Too bony, too flabby, too big, too small, too hairy. You see people who work for modeling companies want you to feel like you need to look a certain way. Truth be told, the majority of the models they use in magazines and etc, have been photoshopped. So you may never be able to live up to their expectations unless you get a lot of cosmetic surgery. You should be happy with the beauty that God has given you. You are beautiful just the way you are and if someone else can not see that then they do not deserve any amount of your time.
• Not being smart enough. Maybe you didn't finish school or college and you don't feel like your intelligent. You are smart, your own kind of smart. Everyone is there own kind of smart. You probably know a lot of things that many people don't know.
• Looking forward to sleeping more than waking up. You think sleeping can help you escape your reality. That is far from true. We must all face our demons day by day until we combat them all.
• When you start on a conversation about yourself it is normally on the subject of complaining. It is normal to find yourself being in a negative state of mind when talking about yourself. Some people don't really like themselves.
• Pretty? Me? No way! You don't take compliments from others. You don't feel as if you deserve that compliment or you think that it is simply untrue.

Is this the type of thinking your doing? Get out of that train of thought!
