Unfoldment of the Great Within: Worse situations bring the Best in You
Anxiety, stress, tension and depression - these are all so omnipotent words that beseech
variety of influences in our lives, especially in our minds. Those who suffer from these
negative thoughts, feelings and emotions find it hard to adapt and go along with life, because
there seem to be a dark shadow that darkens their worlds. This brings about low self-esteem,
low level of confidence and the plummet of self-respect.
How can one perceive all these negative thoughts and feelings? Let’s discuss the way these
illnesses affect our concept on self-importance. The main focal point of the said illnesses is
focused on how one talk to him self, as this becomes the light to the fire that keeps it burning,
prolonging the agony that one undergoes to. Series of traumatic events can trigger a person
to experience a life full of nightmares. Then one comes to believe that there is no end to
such, leaving him diagnosed with depression. This type of depression is an anxiety induced
one; and this example will show the power of how a person’s perception can destroy the value
of one’s self.
But do we really know what the root of depression is? Is it really the series of traumatic
events that one encounters and experiences? If we give this a deep thought, one would come
to realize that it’s not the traumas that we get from experiencing life that makes us
depressed; it is the way we react to them, the way we think and blame ourselves for the
events that we sometimes could not control. It then causes a domino effect: the more we
put the blame on ourselves, the more we vanquish and punish ourselves, leading to a more
depressed self esteem and confidence.
However, how will you begin to see yourself positively and change your self-perception? Self-
depreciating phrases may come in totally unacceptable when said to others. If you utter to
your self that you are not beautiful or you are a bore, it wouldn’t be nice if you spoke to
others in this manner. Negative words build up like rusts on steel, in a way that it erodes
your self-esteem and confidence. But if you pay yourself with some compliments, it will
accentuate and show in the way you project and mingle with people. Keep reminding yourself
of your good points and achievements to keep that positive spirit up.
Let us all remember and instill this phrase in our hearts and minds: Down is where you will
always be if you choose to put yourself down. The choice is ours, as we control the way we
think and act. Understanding human qualities is indeed a powerful and great way to analyze
the emotions and attitudes of people. Adolescents do experience a lot of troubles with
understanding themselves, and may we say let us blame the hormones for this. We should
teach them and guide them on how to control their emotions and personify some intense
feelings that they may have in order to understand themselves better. Let out negative
feelings by self-expression in order to bring about a start on positive change on one’s outlook
in life.
Just remember, no matter how many seminars on self-help or books that you may have read
about this topic, the choice to change and start a better life on a positive note lies in your
hands. The said change will not be made in an instant; it may take a longer time to soak it all
up.
