10 TIPS TO STAY POSITIVE WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS THE OPPOSITE10 TIPS TO STAY POSITIVE WHEN EVERYONE ELSE IS THE OPPOSITE

Staying positive when the world is going crazy is one of the best ways of surviving the tide and riding the storm. It can be challenging but may possibly be the one thing which can get you out of the woods. It needs a strong mindset.

If you are struggling to remain positive in these times, here are 10 Tips To Stay Positive When Everyone Else is the Opposite:

  1. Plan ahead

Planning ahead can help control your stress levels and anxiety in a world where people are going crazy with negativity. It’s one way of knowing you can face anything. One way of making sure you and your loved ones remain positive is by being well prepared for whatever comes. That is why it is advisable to be prepared for emergencies before they happen. You can prepare for anything (pandemic for example) before it strikes. You can achieve this by doing what’s needed before it begins……Enough food, shelter, warm clothing etc. Plus anything else you can think of

  1. Filter information

Avoid bad news whenever you can. Don’t focus on the kind of information that will not help you. Pay attention to material that gives advice on how you can overcome or guard against being affected by the worsening of the pandemic. Filtering information can also mean changing the subject when it is brought up countless times.

  1. Keep exercising

Exercising is a great way of staying positive, staying healthy, and improving your overall physical and mental well-being. Exercise can also help keep your mind in check. Concentrating on improving your health is another way of staying positive when everyone else is going insane. One mistake you can make when faced with difficulties is changing or cancelling your workout routine. Therefore, keep exercising and enjoy the process.

  1. Dwell on happy thoughts

Thinking happy thoughts does not come easy when it seems as if your world is falling apart. That is why you have to try and force your mind to focus on happy thoughts on what is happening internally and not externally. If you cannot think of anything that shifts your mind from the bad news that is being broadcasted everywhere, create happy thoughts. You can achieve this by envisioning where you will be when all the madness is over. Think about the number of people who have overcome or who are overcoming the same situation you are in, look at your photo album and rekindle the happy memories.

  1. Manage your finances

Mishandling your finances is quite easy when you are dealing with a pandemic or a problem that affects a lot of people at the same time. Hence, you need to start managing your finances wisely to avoid having regrets when the problem has passed. You can avoid bankruptcy by just staying calm, avoiding compulsive debts and keeping accurate records and information.

  1. Try caring for someone else

Sometimes caring for someone else is all it takes to maintain your sanity. Shift your focus to doing something worthwhile for someone else or putting a smile on someone else’s face.  Achieve this by helping the person you choose to help or care to stay safe or recover from what they are going through.

  1. Meditate

Meditation is an excellent way of relaxing your mind and having a much clearer perspective on things. Meditation is a relaxation method that you can begin practising right away. If it is something that you are practising already, continuing with it is worthwhile. Try clearing your mind from negative thoughts and focus on one thing that is positive. Do this every single day for at least 30 minutes without any interruptions. If you don’t meditate, listen to calming music and just chill out.

  1. Continue with your work or studies

You may start panicking if you think that your professional life is on hold during a pandemic. However, realize that not being able to go to the office does not necessarily mean the end of progress. Continue with your work or study even if you can’t go to the office or on campus. Remember that working or studying from home has its fair share of benefits as well. You are able to work peacefully without the worries of dressing up, with zero or a few distractions. You are able to control your environment and work at your own pace.

  1. Enjoy whatever you do

Make it a priority to enjoy whatever you do during the pandemic. If you are working on something that you have to do but not necessarily enjoy, try coming up with fun or alternative ways of doing things. Instead of doing your work or completing your projects, you can do it your own creative way, as long as the job is done well.

  1. Avoid negative people

No matter what happens in the world, negative people will always look for ways to blow things out of proportion. That is why avoiding negative people is the best thing to do. If you are told to stay at home and cannot avoid those sharing the house, you can encourage the people around you to remain positive. While it may be impossible to make sure everyone stays positive, you can always bring up something positive to talk about. This will change the atmosphere.
