subject: Living A Positive Life In A Negative World To Attain Personal Development [print this page]


The world is no longer the peaceful, beautiful and fruitful place God had intended it to be. The truth is that, the people living in this world have become evil and ignore effective living. Hardly does a month end without watching or listening to some negative news from the media. The media has evolved to this messenger of doom that keeps on infecting people with bad news because it has become easier to sell negative news than positive news. Having gotten our minds poised by all these negative issues that surround us, it is hard for one to focus on positive living. We are always thinking on how we are going to solve some problem we have, and after that we are busy tackling other issues thus lacking time for personal development. Even with challenges, we need to have a positive attitude about life. There was this day I met with a friend for a drink and I was so eager to share my problems because I was thinking I had gone through a lot since our last meeting. After we had settled down to enjoy our drinks, she went on to tell me that she had borrowed a loan from the bank to buy some stocks, but the stocks did not perform as expected and she had being unable to repay the loan and the bank had to take possession of her house. As if that was not enough, her husband ran off with the baby sitter she had employed for her two children and now the kids are staying with her mother and she is now staying with her sister. On top of all this, she is suffering from cervical cancer and undergoing treatment. I said to myself I do not even have problems. I have a roof over my head, am in good health, I have got food and my family is alright. That is when I realized that we have so much to be thankful about but we are blinded by our craving of having more and being ahead of others thus hindering our personal growth. Just the fact that you are alive this day is enough to be thankful about because every day is a blessing. Trade your negative attitude to positive attitude because your attitude determines your personal growth.
