When reading “ allegory of the cave “ it made me realize that your negative thoughts can sometimes take over you and trap you in an extremely dark place. Like a cave. And you feel like a prisoner that is stuck in this cave without knowing how to get out you tell yourself that this is your new reality but that’s not true when you think like this you tend to forget about the real world , you’re so trapped in your own negative mindset that you lose track of what’s actually going on around you. You might come across a really good opportunity without knowing it. but the truth is that you are the key to succeeding towards the light. You just have to believe in yourself. Learn how to trust yourself. And be open to learn from life and your mistakes. Once you learn how powerful these techniques can make you , you’ll see how many doors of opportunities open up for you. You will no longer feel trapped in a cave but instead be free and confident with your own self and life.
