The economy is rough. Finding a job is a job in itself. Bills are increasing, while funds in your bank account are decreasing. All the while expenses, tolls, gas prices seem to fluctuate and go up, while you're paycheck remains relatively the same. You have to budget every aspect of your life to the cent. You want to scream and shout why me? You have the world on your shoulders and you don't want to carry the weight not now, not at this difficult time.
It's hard. It isn't fair. But you will get through this. Don't let your mind take control of what's left of your sanity. If you have the mindset that things won't get better, then things won't get better for you. If you have the mindset that things will begin to look up once you start to re-evaluate your situation, then things will begin to look up. Don't give up on yourself so easily. The average human has 60,000 thoughts a day, and usually 45,000 of those thoughts will be negative. If you flood your mind with negative thoughts, then your mind becomes a sponge drenched in negativity.
I won't use the phrase "Somebody out there has it worst than you." because that phrase in itself is negative. Thinking of another person who has it worst won't help you for it will only fill your heart with pity and make you temporarily happy off of someone else's misfortune. Instead think of you being in the exact spot you need to be in. You have exactly all the tools you need around you to change your life. One of those tools does not cost money. That tool is your will power to get yourself out of the rut that you may be in now. It is the power of your thoughts and how you will use them to make a difference in your life. Secondly, a big resource is the availability that you have to research and find out what you can do. If you have a question about something, google it, go to the library, ask for a professional opinion. (ex. if you need help with your bills research ways you can lower them or speak to someone with experience). You have everything you need right infront of you. Use it to your advantage. Think of yourself in a better spot and use your will power to get there.
