My Thoughts

Sometimes you may find yourself getting caught up in negativity. Once you start focusing on the negative you start to see the world negatively. This creates a cycle that can be difficult to break. For example: Let's suppose that you dislike your job and one day you start complaining about your job. The next thing you know you are complaining about your coworkers and your boss. From there it keeps growing. Then you find yourself complaining about the bus driver, people on the subway, the waitress, the coffee, the food, and on and on it goes.

So what can you do about this? How can you get out of it?

The first thing is you need to become aware of your thoughts. Most people simply don't realize exactly how negative they are. After you become aware of your thoughts, you have the power to change your thinking. You need to start focusing on what is good around you. I recommend finding things that you are grateful for.

Finally, remember you can't always control what situations you find yourself in but you can control your reaction to those situations. You could ask "Why me?" but that probably won't get you very far and will start up the blame cycle. Instead ask yourself "What can I do in this situation?" or "What control do I have?". This will help you start seeing other potential options that you wouldn’t have seen if you kept focusing on the negative.

Have a wonderful week.
