I want you to know that, no matter where you are in life
No matter how low you have sunk
No matter how bleak your situation, this is not the end
This is not the end of your story
This is not the final chapter of your life
I know it may be hard right now
But if you just hang in there, stick it out
Stay with me for a little while
You will find that this tough moment will pass
And if you are committed to using this pain
Using it to build your character
Finding a greater meaning for the pain
You will find that in time you can turn your life around
And help others going through the same struggles
ย
The world right now is in the middle of a mental health crisis
It's estimated almost half the population
Suffers from depression at some stage throughout their life
Rather than join the cue, it's important we learn why we get down
And then how we can change it
Because believe it or not we create our own negative feelings
And we can also ensure that we turn our lives around
And be a positive change for others
The reason anyone gets depressed always comes down
To the consistent thoughts we think, and the consistent beliefs we hold
Let me say that again
The reason anyone gets depressed always comes down
To the consistent thoughts we think, and the consistent beliefs we hold
The point here is that anyone that is depressed, is so
Because there is an external factor that didn't materialize in their life
They have lost something outside of their control
Or don't have something that is out of their control
In school, we are taught how to get a job
But no one teaches us how to live in a state of happiness
No one teaches us how important our conscious
And unconscious thoughts and associations are
Is our happiness not worth more than a job? Yes it is
And before you say, "Happiness won't pay my bills"
Happiness will pay your bills
When you realize, you will be ten times more energized
Focused and take positive action in your life
When you first choose to develop yourself as a priority
And then get to the stuff of the world
I've seen some people who many would consider to have it all
End their life because they thought they were not good enough
A thought, a belief within them, told them they were not worthy
These people that many were jealous of
Many envious of, were not good enough
You must value yourself enough
To take the time every single day to work on you
To engage in something
That will ensure you are a positive influence on the world
This of course doesn't mean life will suddenly be perfect
The same life-challenges will show up
But if your mind is strong, if your mind is at peace
Your reaction to the challenging times will be very different
Your reaction will be, "How can I make this work?"
Not, "Why is this happening to me?"
And then others will look to you not with pity, but with hope
Because your strength will become their hope, their strength
You really can be that powerful
You can ditch the victim story
You can leave the pain behind
And focus on how you will react next
How you will react positively
Read, read all you can read to get your mind in a positive place
Take steps to ensure you will be in a better position next time
Whatever pain you are suffering from
How you can ensure it won't show again
Take little steps, and soon you will be at the top of the staircase
Don't give up, you are worthy, you are more than worthy
You deserve to experience how great life can be
And you owe it to the world to be that positive change for others
To inspire others who will look to you and say
"He did it, she did it, and I can do it too"
