Trying To Be Positive When Things Feel They Are Falling Apart

When these days happen it's important to listen to personal development.

Trying To Be Positive When Things Feel They Are Falling Apart
Aubrey Muratorri

There are days where everything seems to be falling apart. Where everything that goes on in the day seems to just go wrong and you may feel like there is nothing that can possibly make the day better or worse. There will be the days where you don't want to get out of bed because you don't have anything to look forward to and everything will seem to be falling apart.

When these days happen it's important to listen to PD. For those who may not know, PD is personal development. It develops your mind and changes your mental health. As a person who has struggled with mental health myself, this has really changed me. It has given me a reason to look forward to the positives of every day. It has made me see the positives in every negative situation. It has changed my mental state completely.

There were days where I didn't want to go to school or go to work and would just lay in bed all day doing nothing because I didn't want to leave my house or even my room for that matter. Now I listen to my personal development while I drive to school and look forward to the day as it comes. When there are times where I think it could've gone better, I now think well it could've been worse and way worse.

I think about all the positives in my life. Like the fact I'm breathing, I'm alive, I have amazing friends and an amazing family that would do anything for me. When I have those rough days I reach out to them to give me a boost of confidence and a boost in motivation. Having a support team has such an impact on someone's life. It can really help someone out who is really struggling with something.

Even though things may seem to be falling apart, they will get better with time. Things only fall apart to get better. There is a path that you are following that will get you to your goals and the place where you need to be. Don't let the little bumps in the road keep you from following your dreams and goals. Let the hard times push you to go after them; Choose your hard!

Everyone has hard things that they go through daily. We have the ability to make powerful choices in our life and we can use these choices to fuel positive changes in our future. You are capable of making the progress you would like to make. You control your day, don't let everything else control you. Take a breath and realize you are in charge of the outcome of your day.

You choose how you react to the hard. You can either let it control certain situations or learn to control the situations yourself. Sometimes you have to go through the hardest times in life to become a stronger person.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
