All of these things are seen as negative aspects of one’s personality. But whoever said that they are? Sure we as human beings have been told some of these things, but for the majority of our lives here on this earth it is us who say these things. We say these things to ourselves. We put ourselves down in order to change who we are because we feel that these are negatives. But why do we?
Why do we think we need to change these things that make us who we are? Typically we as humans change these things for another person. There is another person that we think mean so much to us and our being that we think we need to change ourselves. We don’t. We shouldn’t have to change in order for someone to like us. If they don’t like us for who we are and what we believe are “negatives” than they don’t deserve to see anything that we consider a positive.
There are also going to be people who tell you not to change who you are and those are the people you need to keep in your life. They are the people who will not see your “negatives” as negatives but as things that make you, you.
So if we also have these amazing people who don’t make us change for them, then why do we pick out the negatives? Why don’t we amplify the positives? There are so many positives in us as people that we burrow away and pretend that we don’t have. Broadcast them. Who cares what other people think because you will attract those who also share those positives.
Remember that some of the things you consider to be negatives are more than likely positives.
I care a lot about people.
I like to take care of people.
I love to write.
I am a very curious person.
I want to help people.
I love to sing.
I try to fix things, no matter how bad.
Take time out of your day today and think about your positives. Think about what makes you, you. Don’t let other people think you need to change things. Flip what you think are negatives into positives. Find what you love and who loves you for you. Don’t bother with those you feel you need to change for because they are not worth your time.
You are amazing just by being you. You are a wonderful human who may have negatives, but look past these and find the other things you think are wonderful.
