On digging yourself out of a hole.

It's easy to think of all the things I don't like about my life.

Being unemployed, applying to countless jobs without a response, going to horrifying interviews, still living at home, having no friends, a blog that has taken a backseat, family drama, etc.

However, I had an epiphany the other day.

 Maybe if I change my attitude, then things will get better.

And even if they don't actually get better, I will at least feel better.

It is so hard being down all the time, 

why not fake being up and see if that actually leads to becoming happier.

Nobody wants to be around a negative person, so I think changing my attitude will change other people's attitude towards me and that in turn will breed more happiness.

At least this is my theory.

I want to be happy, so I need to start looking for the good in everything again.

Change my attitude, my outlook, my interactions, and my thoughts into positive ones.
