NEGATIVITY - The backdoor of our mind

Replace the negativity in your life with positives if you wish to advance in life. This article will teach you how to remove the bad influences from your life and replace them with good ones, which will boost your productivity and morale. Focus on the positive for success and peak performance.

Most of us are not aware of the amount of negative influences in our lives.We are constantly exposed to unfavourable signals from the media, those around us, and—worst of all—from within.

Making the decision to begin looking for the negative signals and ways to replace them with positives is the first step in the process of replacing negatives with positives in your life. Decide that you will focus on the positive in this world.

Reduce the amount of news you consume significantly. Most individuals read the news when they begin their day. Of course, the majority of the news is negative—fires, floods, etc. Then it is on to traffic and weather, which also stresses the negatives. So by the time you have finished your coffee, you have had enough bad news to last a week. Do you want to throw open the door and welcome the new days in response to all this unpleasant news? Actually, the reverse is true. What about how we wrap out the day? Many of us watch the news before night, which exposes us to a lot of unfavourable information right before attempting to go asleep. Is it surprising that so many individuals struggle to fall asleep? The mood we are in before we go to sleep carries over to the next morning, so you are setting yourself up for starting the next day in a bad mood. Most likely, all the unpleasant information you are consuming from the news is unnecessary, and you can get by just fine without it.

Replace the news you were taking in with such things as, motivational tapes, uplifting music etc that stress good news. Also reading empowering books helps a great deal. Books can be a fantastic way to recharge your life. See what works for you by looking up success stories, biographies of successful people, etc. Right away, you'll start to feel better. 

Your next step is to limit the amount of TV you watch. A recent study showed that 78% of the people watching TV, are not interested in the program they are watching at any given time. So watching TV is probably making you bored at best, and taking you away from actives that would be more fun. Use that time to move your life ahead.

Next, try to avoid negative people as much as possible. Most people are unaware of how depleting it is to be around negative individuals, but they affect your soul and energy in a variety of bad ways. You should make every effort to keep negative people out of your life because they drag you down. Never get involved in the office pity party, or complaint sessions that come your way. Seek out people that support you and that you feel good being around and use these people to replace the negative people in your life.

The most damaging source of negativity is ourselves. Most of us generate lots of negative self talk that our minds accept as the truth and results in our being held back in many ways. We focus on our shortcomings, our problems, and spend our time predicting more bad news for ourselves, generating lots of fear and worry, while undercutting our ability to try new things, etc. Begin to focus on the positive aspects of you. What are your special strengths, your accomplishments, and how are you superior to others?  Use visualization and affirmations to build images of yourself accomplishing the things you want and use these to replace the negative images. Give yourself a lot of credit for whatever you achieve so that you can continue to hear good things about yourself. Also, set aside three minutes every day to think about all the good things you have in your life right now. The process of thinking of the good things in your life, will generate good feelings for you that will last much of the day.

Don’t forget to take care of your body. Eat healthy, cut out some bad habits, and get regular exercise in order to boost your self-esteem while building your strength and endurance, so you can accomplish more.

You'll feel better about yourself by helping others.Take time to get involved in a charity, animal shelter, or other activates that help others. You will get good feedback from others and develop a genuine sense that you are a good person. Make sure that everything you send out is positive because what you put out comes back to you.

By replacing the negativity your life, with positivity,  you will make yourself and probably the world a better place. You will feel better mentally and physically, plus accomplish many of the things you wanted to. Nothing is ever achieved without action, so get started right away to improve your life.
