Hi everyone!!! How are you today? I hope everything goes well at your end. =)
Well, seems like things are not going my way lately. =/ If you are facing the same situation, may I know how did you/do you deal with it?
Last night I was almost out of the mood and suddenly I found a new way to motivate myself and feel happy again. I never felt like this before.
I used to be a pessimistic person. I may look bubbly from the outside, but in fact, I was not as bubbly as I looked. Most of the times, I chose to hide and avoid the fact or sometimes I would let the "moody devil" to take over me. I would let myself slack the whole day, trying to become a trash. I would tell myself "Yes! this is it! I am just a rubbish and rubbish lives like this. No one would understand how I feel, I can only feel sorry for myself. ... " and the negatives thoughts would go on and on and on till I fall asleep and continued the next day.
Did/do you act like this???? Please DON'T!!! If you didn't notice, the title of my blog is "CHIN UP!! LIFE GOES ON!!"
It is NOT the end of the world. If you are broke, just accept the fact and try to look for a way to earn back those pennies! If you failed in your exams, try to look back at yourself for the answer. If it's YOU who didn't work hard enough OR if you have used a wrong way to study, try to ask for advice and work hard for the next exam. If you just broke up with your bf/gf, well, all I can say is, live for yourself! Go do the things you have longed to do. Stop asking why she/he dumped you OR stop asking why he/she cheated you. That's NOT the point anymore. What is done, is done. If you can forgive and forget, then the relationship won't ended up like this.
I am not saying that we are NOT allow to feel sad/moody. We are still human being. We have emotions. Just that we need to learn how to control our emotions and how to conquer the devil (bad mood) within. Instead of waiting for others to comfort us, instead of waiting for your loved one to encourage/motivate you, WHY NOT you yourself start to do this your own? You're responsible for your own life. When you face a problem and couldn't find WHY it happened. Then skip the WHY and continue to HOW. How to sort things out and What are the steps you need to do. I know it's not as simple as it seems. I personally think if you really want to help yourself, then you have to try doing things your own. I believe everyone wants to live a happy life.
Usually, if I am moody, I would prefer to stay at home and do nothing. Then my mind would keep playing all the negative stuffs. I would continue asking myself "Why are these happening to me?? Why am I in such a bad luck?? Why I can't sort things out the way I want? Why??" and my mood would go worst. You see. I didn't want to accept the fact but kept questioning and not trying to find a solution.
Last night, I received a bad news. I felt disappointed. In fact, these few months have not been smooth for me. There were a lot of ups and downs and things were not going my way. As usual, I feel moody and wanted to stay at home. Suddenly, my housemate came to knock at my door and invited me to play badminton. Out of the blue, I went like "SURE! Let's go!" (this is unusual for me)
We played badminton for 2 hours long and I felt fresh again. During the game, I wasn't thinking about my problems anymore. For that time, I just want to enjoy the game and make sure I sweat. Hahahaha..
When we arrived home, I was left alone. I thought I would feel moody again. However, I did not. Instead, I tried to look for a solution. I didn't ask myself WHY anymore. I tried to think differently.
Finally, I feel relief and happy again. I told myself "what doesn't kill me, makes me stronger! 我是一只打不死的蟑螂!" =P
There's ALWAYS a second chance in life UNLESS you decided NOT to TRY anymore. So people, PLEASE stay POSITIVE. Life's too short to worry for Tomorrow! Live for Today and never regret for Yesterday.
You may Not be the Best today. However, if you NEVER give up trying and improving, you can become the BEST one day. Be Confidence!! Don't feel sad for people who don't appreciate you. Feel happy that you are NOT giving up yourself.
Nothing is WORST than you GIVING UP yourself when others DON'T.
I love hiking coz it is challenging and fun. It helps to relax your mind and souls. Climbing can be dull if you only think of WHEN you can reach to the TOP. However, climbing can be awesome if you starts to enjoy the breathtaking scenery along the tracks, starts enjoying the breeze of the air, and observe every little steps you take. Hiking is another way to escape from the busy life. =) Hiking is more than just an exercise.
