MOJO DOWN AND OUT

Positive mojo is when your positive mindset gives you the power to get the best out of any situation by using your witt combined with your charm to influence others in getting your way. Without positive energy in your life, your chances of reaching your full potential drastically reduce, leaving you with fewer options and only a negative mindset that will discourage you from even trying. Positive mojo is best recognised for its strength in reinforcing your undeniable faith in your own ability to succeed. Thinking positive removes any doubt from lingering that you may have with the power of negative influence that will suffocate your hopes and dreams before you bring them into fruition. Confidence in your actions helps motivate you to move forward and achieve your goals without hesitation of doubt. Once you have positive mojo in your life, you are guaranteed a rewarding outcome because belief in yourself is the first step to a path that ultimately leads to your own happiness. There is no chance for doubt to demotivate you if you stand by your belief system. So, if you would rather achieve your goals, then don't hold onto doubt and make sure that you never ever let your mojo run out.

REVISITING THE PAST

We build up memories from our past personal experiences that remain with us through time. We perceive that those memories are better than they actually were because life was so much simpler when your child who grew up with little to no responsibilities. A simple life reflected as one that should be cherished for its innocence without the corruption that comes to those who become over ambitious. Chasing an over ambitious lifestyle brings out characteristics that may go against your normal way of being, it changes you to do anything in your power to make your dreams a reality even at the harm of those you mostly rely on. In the past, your innocent younger self hasn't yet experienced the downfalls of humanity where the dog eat dog mentality seems to be the lesson we have to learn in order for us to fit in. The world's problems now are shared through social media with misinformation taking its stand to influence us further astray, people have now lost their perspective and are relying on the wrong information to help them find themselves back. Sometimes it is better to go back to basics and try to keep your inner child happy by doing what you like with your focus solely on the ride not on the fear of failure because life is so much simpler if we just keep things simple. 

CANT BEAT THEM JOIN THEM

Eventually, all those who have doubted in their heart join those they have doubted. It's easy to forget your past stand when it doesn't sit well with your future values, how could of you predicted that you were going to be put in the same position only to do the exact opposite to what you've confidently claimed that you would of done. Maybe it's because you were only in your own headspace where you don't have to consider how your choices can lead to undesirable real consequences when you were told to think hard and consider the potential scenario. When you don't have anything to lose, there is no risk for you, so your opinion is tainted with bias, especially if you are incapable of projecting yourself in that vulnerable position when you were asked to. This detachment of emotion has no bearing on your true opinion, which is now made up of fantasy ideals and not your true response. It's not easy for someone to have a perspective that takes into consideration the less than desirable options that force ones hand to do things that they don't want to do. Most people when there is no pressure applied will make calm decisions based on logical thought, so maybe we should take a step back before making judgement to criticise those who are forced to make tough decisions on a regular basis because nobody knows what tomorrow will bring.

MIRRORED BEHAVIOUR

Our actions to others mirror what we expect for ourselves in return. Anything different will only highlight a hypocrisy mindset. If we don't give respect to our peers we can't expect to receive respect in return, for that view point to make sense it would mean that you dont have any problem with treating people better than they are currently treating you. As much as we like to think that we are morally superior to those who keep on making bad choices so we assure ourselves that we don't have to sink down to the same level of those with bad intentions. The reality is that we all have our limits, and some might take more neglect than others, but when you eventually have had enough, the chance for redemption is gone and buried. We are not fools just because we haven't reacted in the past it doesn't mean we hadn't caught on to the hypocrisy that you have willfully created, it just meant we let the show run its course until we just got fed up. So if you wonder if it was the last thing that you might of done that pushed us over the edge it was not one thing but a series of disappointments that helped us make the decision to stop helping those that will never learn because they are always ontop of the priority list and your generous behaviour only conditioned them to carry on with their bad behaviour. Now it's time to reap what you sow because in the end, karma will always catch up with you,  so maybe next time, don't just preach fairness. Make it your core belief.

WAITING FOR A REACTION

We strive for recognition. Without it, we feel ignored and alone. It is this fear of failure not to be seen that pushes us to amplify our own responses so that we are not overlooked. Our efforts are designed to either show others our worth or there to prove to ourselves that we do have a purpose. Our desire to prove our worthiness to our worst critique ourselves outweighs any need to appease those who are our peers because we are unforgiving to ourselves but overly fair to our peers. The negative side of us tries to put fear in us to convince us that we are not worthy so that it can control us by keeping our motivations at bay. Without any motivation in our lives, we will remain where we lie, not striving for more. It is human nature that encourages us to chase the things that we want in life and not to give up at the first sign of a problem. Fear uses the fear of failure as a deterrent so that we never try, but not trying is the biggest form of failure. There is peace of mind that comes to you when you know that you have lived a life without regret and knowing that you put your heart and soul into your endeavours is enough to save you the qualms if you didn't trust yourself enough to even try. So try and keep on trying until you have nothing left in you because at least you will know that you have given it your best. 

KNOW THYSELF

We may have the ability to limit the amount of bad things that happen in our lives, but no amount of planning ahead can prevent all the bad things from happening to us. Murphy's Law claims that if anything can go wrong, then the chances are that it will go wrong. This is why when the shit eventually hits the fan, how we tend to deal with the tough times is what determines the type of person that we have grown into. It is those moulding experiences that teachers us who we really are because it is only through those harsh times that we face that pushes us to our limits and at the same time strengthens us for the ongoing struggles that life deals us. That is why we are the only ones who could fully understand our weaknesses and our strengths because we have learned through our lifes struggles to work out who we are and what is best for us. Throughout our life we are told what we should be doing instead of what we have chosen to do because people believe that they know what is the better path for us even though their views are tainted by their own personal interests. So if you want to give advice to guide someone during troublesome times make it relevant to the persons interests not your own otherwise if they choose to follow your advice be aware you'll hear the end of it when the shit hits the fan.

OTHER RULES FOR YOU

Rules are meant to be held in high regard because they are the principles that govern our society. Without rules to help guide us from what is acceptable to what is not, people would rely on what is acceptable for them with little regard for others. We all have our own moral compass to guide us, but not all peoples moral compasses are equal. The world is made up of people who are givers and those that are takers, and not all takers have limits to what they'll take, especially from the givers who feel bad if they are not giving. Rules aren't designed to be perfect they are there purely as terms that you must follow if you expect to be part of a society and reap from the benefits of that society otherwise your actions against the terms that are put in place will incur consequences. We all have the power to choose the direction of where we go, if we don't like the rules that society puts out there then we can live like hermits and break the shackles of that society by living alone where we don't need to appease any laws. We can't expect to be in a functioning society and have the mindset that rules for me a different to the rules for others otherwise when reality hits so does the realisation that we are just like everyone else and not as special as we thought. So if you would rather be connected with reality and be a rational person not a selfish hypocrite then follow the rules that we all have to follow so that you don't get slapped  in the face with the consequences of breaking them.

PRONE TO REPEAT

The problems you see ahead may be obvious, but that doesn't mean that you will choose to change your path. We like to think that if we recognise the dangers ahead that we won't fall in the pitfalls that they bring, but it doesn't matter how prepared that we think we are because our over confidence will be our downfall. What makes us prone to repeat our mistakes is our inability to accept things for what they are. We like to believe that with the right thought process, we can do anything, but we are limited by our own circumstances. As much as we like to believe that we have full control of our lives, we can not control all the conditions in our lives. Our strength is in our ability to recognise good decisions over bad ones. If we ignore our intuition to make the right choices, then all that is waiting for us is a pathway that is full of misfortunes. If we think back over our mistakes, we will be able to recognise where we went wrong. So stop believing that you are infallible and start listening to your intuition so you can break the patterns of disappointment.

PAIN FULL OF AUDIENCE

Most people have experienced pain in their lives, but how they react to that pain can vary depending on their audience. When pain hits you and you are alone, you take it in and deal with it the best way that you can. This intrinsic response changes the moment someone else enters the room. Even though you are quietly managing your pain, your threshold for pain declines when your audience has their eyes on you. This overreaction gets the observer to transform into a carer, and now, with their focus solely on you, their newfound objective is what they can do to make you feel better. When we were kids and we fell down and scraped our knees our parents would either cuddle us with the intention of making us feel safe or they helped us by picking us up dusting us off and then encouraged us to keep on playing. Even though both decisions are made with good intentions, the decision to give more attention than what is required will only encourage bad behaviour. We are all product of conditioning it is human nature to recognise patterns in behaviour and if we notice that a little overreacting gets us what we deem is the right kind of attention then we will play on it. So if you don't want to fall for the drama then change the way you react to it and wait for the next episode that seems to come on a heightened level even though there is no urgency for it.

LIGHTS CAMERA ACTION

When we are alone, we are only judged by our own expectations, whereas when we are in a group, we allow ourselves to be placed under a microscope so that we can be compared to the majorities expectations. Being alone gives us time to delve deep into our own needs without having to consider what the room thinks. Most people dont find it easy to remain true to their opinions when they are surrounded by a group of people who would disagree with their claims. This is why alot of people keep quiet when their opinions aren't mirrored by the majority and would rather choose to make alot of noise when they want to show their support with the majority even if their true opinions don't align with the crowd. The power of the audience is enough to steer the emotions of the crowd pleasers with a simple glance because when eyes are on your movements most people choose to blend in with the crowd rather than stand up for what they truly believe in. Our fear of rejection from our peers outweighs our desire to speak up, so maybe we should stand up for our beliefs and then walk away from those who would never listen to anyone else's opinion that differs from their own. Those who refuse to listen will only ever hold you back from moving forward because not everyone will ever share your perspective and no matter the effort that you put in they are content with  where they are in their life. So we should keep in mind that you can only help those who request it and leave those who live by the philosophy that ignorance is bliss to themselves.
