Why don't people critique constructively and in an objective manner ? - TeamPositivity

Wise people speak because they have something to say while stupid people because they have to say something. Sometimes it is just better to shut up if you have nothing constructive to say.

I was added to this Facebook group(name withheld). Without my consent of course. It happens to everyone, right? So I decided to sit back and see what the group had to offer. It is a group that is anti-government. I have no problem with that. Remember that freedom of expression is even provided for in our constitution. My problem comes in with the kind of insults leveled up against some leaders in government.

Why don’t people critique constructively. Condemn the injustices, the corruption e.t.c. but in an objective manner. At times people hate for no good reason. Why are they so angry with the world? I don’t have time to hate, I better focus on the things that are worthy of my time.

The concept of being entitled to an opinion is not directly proportional to hating. Ever logged into your Facebook or Twitter and you bump into so much hate that you are left speechless? That happens to me all of the time. We keep on hating and in the long run we are on the losing end.

Try asking yourself if what you post will elicit negativity before clicking on “send’. Let’s spread some positive vibes. Positivity for life. Leaving you with this as food for thought:

People tend to be generous when sharing their nonsense, fear and ignorance. And while they seem quite eager to feed you with their negativity, please remember that sometimes the diet we need to be on is a spiritual and emotional one. Be cautious with what you feed your mind and soul. Fuel yourself with positivity and let that fuel propel you into positive action.”~Steve Maraboli
