BECOME THE MOST POSITIVE PERSON YOU KNOW: 

Sloppy, negative thinking. 

Maybe you don’t realize you’re tolerating low-grade negativity.

 

Examples of unmonitored negativity:

You don’t have any current stretch or reach goals.

You wake up with dread.

You avoid things that you aren’t confident doing. 

You engaged in cynicism or sarcasm.

You accept advice from negative people. 

You complain – even micro-complain.

You are irritated by things that aren’t a big deal.

You lose perspective and over-dramatize things.

You compare yourself to others and feel discouraged or down on yourself.  

 

The Power of Positivity

What you feed your subconscious mind is what will grow.

Positivity gives you courage.

Emotional positivity creates action – and massive action gets more results. 

 

Do not accept advice from people who are negative. Or from people not doing big things with their lives.

You’re more negative than you think.

 

And the internal negativity is affecting you more than you realize.

It’s keeping you from your fullest potential.

It’s making things harder than they need to be.

It’s distracting you.

It’s stealing your full access to joy.

It’s keeping you from God’s fullest for you. 

 

Negative Self-Talk that Many People Think is “Normal,” but is Not:

This is too hard.

I don’t want to deal with this right now.

It’s not fair.

This is going to be a long day.

Why is this hard for me?

I’m tired.

What’s the point.

If only…. Then I would ….

I’ll start tomorrow…

I’ll do that later.

Nobody cares.

I’ll never be able to…

I’ll always struggle with…

I guess I’m just…

I’m just being realistic. 

I failed.

I’m afraid to hope.

I hope this works out. 

I don’t want to be disappointed. 

Ugh. (insert any complaint) 

 

It’s your responsibility to stop and detox negative thoughts.

Don’t complete a negative sentence.

-About yourself

-About others

-About your spouse

-About your situation

LISTENER OF THE EPISODE

I actually will do that. 

I started listening to you around the middle of April and I literally listen to at least 2 or 3 of your podcasts daily. 

It’s usually you and Joyce Meyer!!

Your transparency has helped me tremendously. I feel like I can relate to every thing I hear you say and I find myself changing my thoughts from always negative to looking at the bigger picture and it brightens my day!

So thank you for doing what you do!!

And happy birthday, yesterday
