We celebrate positivity and condemn negativity. But why?
Independently, both can be just as problematic as the other.
While the negative bemoans the opportunities, challenges, and possibilities ahead,
the positive often fails to see the potential pitfalls, drawbacks, and risks that lie in wait.
For me, as with most things, somewhere in the middle is usually the best vantage point.
The negative never starts.
The positive charges ahead, often overlooking key details — making the journey harder, if they even finish it at all.
The bold one is the person who can acknowledge the negative, yet still choose a positive attitude.
Saying “fuck negativity” isn’t positivity.
Saying “I can see the flaws, the risks, and the struggles — and I’m still hopeful” — that’s real positivity.
