I have heard many opinions on both beliefs, a lot of times. I have been thrown of balance to both sides, as I found both to have strong points, till I finally walked steadily on the middle, to decide wich one was right.

After long meditations on the subject, I came to this conclusion:

There is no right or wrong side to believe in. Only positive or negative mentality.

What happened was, when I was hearing the side that tells that we humans are self-destructive, that the society is suffering from the exponential growth of the industry, getting more and more lost, deep, in the middle of so much information, and all that negativity, I tended to my negative side.

I let myself flood with destructive thoughts and emotions, so I believed it to be right.

On the other hand, every time I heard that society was in the process of awakening and that was leading us to the greatness of the Universe, then, the positive thoughts and emotions would come.

As such, I would believe in that as the right side.

Perceiving this, I finally came to the conclusion that the problem was me. And the best advice I can give you is:

Don’t let your mood shape your perception.

Since I was emotionally unstable, my perception would be shaped by my mood, I was too connected to my emotions and I would allow them to drive me in the direction they flowed, be it positive or negative.

I use to have negative emotions on the majority of the day, so I would easily be fooled to believe in a chaotic outcome for every situation. I would even help me trick myself into that.

Then my life took a turn and I got tired of constantly thinking on the dark side.

That’s when I realized I had to invest more on myself, I started slowly connecting to myself, learning self-love, every day seeing brighter. After some time my mentality had shifted to a point, where the majority of my day was positivism.

So, as I said, you have two possibilities when perceiving the world, positive and negative perspective. From this point, all you have to do is:

Choose the side you want.

It will dictate what you believe in, and the future that lies ahead.

I will not lie to you, since it has not been an easy journey. It actually took a lot of hard work. For a long time I had to face, too many difficulties:

Mood swings;

Overthinking;

General anxiety;

Social anxiety;

Personality disorders, including depersonalization;

Mental and physical fatigue;

etc.

High persistence and awareness will keep from quitting your lifetime personal development journey.

When I got to the point where I could keep my thoughts positive most of the time, my reality began to shift to a positive one too.

With this said, I solemnly believe that we are on the path of self-awareness and spiritual awakening, and for me, I am as right as I am.

Maybe I am not right for you, but then I dare you to take a few minutes, and think cautiously, to answer this question:

Are you more positive or negative?

Exactly! So, we are definitely walking on the great path.

The society is slowly starting to awaken, realizing there is a greater truth that can be found in themselves, growing more aware of it, urging to explore this, and connecting more to their higher self.

There is still space for a positive idea to grow.

In one of my favorite movies, Inception, there is this quote from Cobb (Leonardo DiCaprio):

“What is the most resilient parasite? Bacteria? A virus? An intestinal worm? An idea. Resilient… highly contagious. Once an idea has taken hold of the brain it’s almost impossible to eradicate. An idea that is fully formed, fully understood, that sticks; right in there somewhere.” — Cobb, Inception (2010)

This quote tells us how contagious an idea can be. In the same way that a parasite is something strange to our body, so this positive idea can be too. A contagious idea must be a strange one, and so a new one is.

Negativity is already our habitual side. The contagious virus is called “Positivity”, the new idea. That’s the perfect environment for the virus to grow.

The new idea has been planted as a seed, in some minds it is fully grown, and they can help spreading it somewhere else.

And here is also my seed to you! It is already planted, so I can believe in a brighter future. I can, I do and it will happen. You are changing, we are changing, and we will achieve great things.
