[Last Name] 1 Charise Bailey Confined Feeling very confined almost stuck like I am in a cage surrounded by fire and I can’t find my way out, my heart feels so heavy but empty all at the same time it’s like my head and mind are present but my mind seems to drift off as well. How do we as individuals cope? How are we suppose to get over these obstacles? It’s not a forever thing but I feel my stomach and heart sink every time, I feel like I am physically not here but everything in my body is intact. I’ve always heard personal experiences and goals are what truly make for good storytelling but I personally think when we as humans measure our happiness and emotions by day to day, small goals are something to look forward to I have learned over time. I have always measured my goals with having long term progress I didn’t think it was possible for me to ever achieve happiness with small victories, but I know it’s possible, over time a course of 3 years I have learned that small progress is just as beneficial as large achievements. It’s sort of like the glass is either half full or half empty depending on how someone looks at it, when have your cup half filled you then have that chance to put more into your cup if there is room for improvement and optimism. That’s when the victim or creative mindset, victim mindset will have you thinking that just nothing is possible not even change and wanting to point fingers and have the blame game instead of taking accountability for our own actions which can blind us as a whole. We have all been there thinking there is no way that we can change our thinking into “hey I actually can do that” it’s so easy to say “this is so impossible for me to accomplish”, when really if I apply myself and say I can do this and this is going to be my “light bulb” moment, getting rid of those biases and hearing your own voice and knowing you can change that victim mindset into a creative one.
