When you get hit with a big ball of negativity, what do you do to keep yourself positive. I feel like positivity is something that is needed in all our fields, and I've recently been hit hard. Feedback would be much appreciated. Thanks everyone!

Just know that this situation (whatever it is) is temporary. Break it down into manageable chunks and only take on one thing at a time - before you know it, you'll be in a whole new place. Breathe. Eat well. Take care of you. Go read my blog (not a shameless plug - I really think it might help- it's all about this very topic.) http://yoursecondact.blogspot.com Hang in there kiddo! :)

A beautiful piece of advice and a beautiful blog. It's funny how hard it is for the brain to actually listen to advice, because the advice sounds so easy. Thank you.

I hear ya- It's very often "fake it till you make it" - Taking the steps leads to the real healing. But you're right - you have to be in the right state to receive it. Words of wisdom from Finding Nemo.."Just keep swimming, just keep swimming..." :)

My very sincere answer: i watch one of my favourite movies. Why? Makes me forget the negativity for a little while but mostly, reminds me why i love movies and filmmaking. goodbye negativity ball Cheers
As ARTISTS WE HAVE to Be in Constant Meditation and Prayer!! Ask God to Comfort You Guide You, and Keep You Connecting to His True Source of Creativity. Ask for Guidance, Help,and PROTECTION in your MIND, BODY, SPIRIT, in every aspect of your Life, ask for Help to Protect your Creative Projects from people with dark hateful hearts,and dark intentions. We must constantly stay Connected to That same source of Creativity that Created Our World and ALL of the Universe(s). God is the First Artist, and the One True Pure Source for All Creativity. I am constantly being hit with negativity, apathy, and just down right ignorant people throwing up ROAD BLOCKS just because they can, just because they are ASS HOLES. Especially when I am Close to a Creative Break through, or trying to accomplish a Creative Goal. There are enough resources in this World and the Next for all of us to Be Creative Happy, Free and FULFILLED. Enough resources for All Of Us To Accomplish Our Dreams and Goals. We ARTISTS SHOULD ALL SUPPORT ONE ANOTHER. There is no need for anyone to be jealous or try to stand in the way of or try to stop anyone's progress or accomplishments STAY PEACEFUL & STAY ENCOURAGED - DON'T GIVE UP!! BRIAN aka DJ LOVE@CHICAGO

I'll echo Alfredo's suggestion. Get lost in something that you love. Something individual. A book, a movie, writing, cooking, exercise...Whatever it is that makes you feel most like yourself. Getting back to basics, to your core self, is healthy and cathartic.
I spend extra time with wife and kids. They are the reasons that I do what I do.
