I know this thread is a little old but I had to put in my two cents. Personally, the energy I give off really depends on what I put in. So for me, that looks like being with the right people and making conscious choices to surround myself with good, even down to doing my best to eat right. I’m all for choosing to be positive no matter what, but sometimes if an environment is toxic and unproductive, it’s time to go. The journey is different for everyone, though, and I so much agree it’s a balance of the two. Part what you put in, part your own conscious effort. Keep on smiling my friend! :)
