Mindset
The more days of experience I gain from the hard hard work that is living.
The more I realise the way to survive anything is mindset.
Mindset is a skill that needs to be looked after.
Just as communication and teamwork.
Having a strong mindset, a positive mindset, a resilient mindset.
These allow you to accept reality but protect you from its harsh edges.
They allow you to adapt to your ever changing surroundings.
Inspiring words of 'always look on the bright side of life'
Seems fake and definitely can't be applied to everything.
But it's in the mundanity of life that I think people trip up on.
Always waiting for the next night out, the next holiday, the next time they laugh.
I believe people need to fall in love with life itself.
In the everyday things that could easily go unnoticed.
How the clouds are aligned. Seeing a bumblebee mind its own business.
The moon staying up just long enough to wish you a good day or your favourite song on the radio.
These little sparks that add up to make living feel alive.
I think we should actively search for them.
Mindset can either break you or make you.
And in the end,
I would rather be smiling in the rain,
than have neon colours and fake grass covering up on an emptiness.
