Are you a positive person? You should be happy for yourself.
Are you a negative person? You should feel sorry for yourself.
Okay, I am not here to judge, to pontificate or preach about who you are. You are who you are, and that's a wonderful thing, indeed. What I am trying to say is that your attitude towards yourself, people and life in general determines the way you feel which, consequently, also determines the way you portray yourself and the way people see you. You don't care about how people see you? Well, you should, because the way they judge you could be a good indication of your most intimate state of being. I often say that what you think about yourself is more important than what others think about you, but this doesn't mean that others' opinion is worthless. On the contrary, in certain cases it can be a useful means to understand a little more about yourself, especially when you tend to move through life "blindfolded", totally unaware of what's actually going on in the deepest part of your being. A positive attitude makes you feel good about yourself and the world, it fills you with the expectation of good things. A negative attitude deprives you of most of the joy that can be experienced in life and prepares you to face only unpleasant circumstances. Difficult times happen to everybody, therefore it's only fair that they occur to you as well. But the attitude you face them with determines your mood, day by day, minute by minute. In a nutshell, attitude determines the way you live your life.
