Why is it that once you make a decision to become sealed and proofed against negativity, that so many people choose to have a good old negative rant right in front of you? What makes it so attractive? It’s one thing to share your troubles and difficulties with a friend, ‘ .. a problem shared is a problem halved…etc’, but to choose to speak negatively about ourselves, the weather, the television schedule, the neighbours, the state of the nation, the bankers, the supermarkets, the children, the boss, the state of our finances, the adult siblings, the many physical ailments, the harshness of life in general and so on and so on; this is quite another thing entirely. If we knew how damaging this was, would we change our habits? I want to cultivate habits that serve me positively. How does negative talk serve you?
It is draining, it is cyclical and stationary and repetitive. It paints a dreary window of life that is not uplifting to anyone. It also steals your joy. Why would you allow anything or anyone to steal your joy? I guard it with my life! When I hear the negativity rant building 1,2,3 I run away saying ‘No! Please! I don’t want to hear it!
Growing up with a number of health challenges, I have chosen to be positive and to view life through the glass of positivity. Sure, it’s not always easy, but it is a choice and it is far better than being negative.
Now that I am an entrepreneur, I want to work with other people who have a positive outlook. There is a great energy created when positive minds work together with a common goal or purpose. My joy is safe and protected.
So, why not take another look at that negative self-talk.
How does it serve you? How does it make you feel?
