Noone likes the smell of trash. Be honest, if you smell a trashcan what do you do? If you are like me you probably cover your nose. It is the same if you have ever been to a house where the weeds have grown so tall that you can barely walk through the yard. As humans sometimes we carry around a bunch of mess, and like weeds it piles up until it overtakes our lives. Suddenly, things that would seem like a big deal like lying, bulling, cheating, and even sneaking out with a boyfriend or girlfriend don't seem like a big deal anymore. Negative people can also cause uneccessary weeds to grow in our lives. This is why as kids we may have a big career dream and then by the time we are 20 its gone, choked by the weeds we let into our lives. Do you want to live a life like this? DO you want your life to be a dumping ground for whatever people to come in and trash your dreams? Sometimes we have to clean up our lives. There are a few ways you can do so.
Get rid of negative people- This is not an easy task but it is certainly worth it. Whether you realize it or not, negative people who tell you that you can't do something can drag you down.
Put some values in place- These values don't have to be what you think your mom dad aunt or uncle would want you to put down its what you think is important. You can even look up examples of good values online. TO do so you may have to do a little soul searching. Wat do you like to do? Where do you want to be in 20 years?
Turn away gradually from those things that are causing trouble- gossiping, lying, drugs, or that abusive girlfriend and/ or boyfriend. This will not happen right away and there may be days where you turn back towards those things. But you have to keep in mind your dream.
Clean out your trashcan often- when you find that those things are starting to creep back into your life turn from them.
Remember that though your environment effects you it doesn't define who you are. (Look up the story of Oprah Winfry)
