Positivity

When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit-
Rest if you must, but don't you quit.

Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a fellow turns about
When he might have won had he stuck it out.
Don't give up though the pace seems slow -
You may succeed with another blow.

Often the goal is nearer than
It seems to a faint and faltering man;
Often the struggler has given up
When he might have captured the victor's cup;
And he learned too late when the night came down,
How close he was to the golden crown.

Success is failure turned inside out -
The silver tint in the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It might be near when it seems afar;
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit -
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit


A beautiful poem by John Greenleaf Whitier!! When you're low such motivators push you up!! With great difficulty you push yourself out and fill yourself with more positivity..

Similarly when you're at the peak of positivity and confidence, something shakes you up.. It may be few words of anger from someone close, it may be a situation, it maybe an ignorance of some person.. There's nothing great needed to shatter someone's confidence.. The slip from that peak is lower than what you began at the first place.. Then you think there's no way to get out of it ever!!

Dwelling on it will only cause more pain and worries.. Finding your positivity amidst it is a Herculean task.. Its not only difficult but also very essential to pick yourself from that pit.. All you need is a determined mindset that you're not gonna let anything break you or your happiness.. When you've got the right support from the right people, when your focus is on keeping your happiness, you tend to find a way out.. The best way to get out of the negativity is getting yourself off the situation by working a way out of it!!!

Always remember, there's a rainbow after the rains.. Even if a situation seems bleak, there's many more reason to be happy.. All it takes is a look in the right direction.. After all, the greatest wizard Albus Dumbeldore has taught us that "Happiness can be found even in the darkest places, if only one remembers to turn on the light!"
