One thought of negativity is enough to jeopardize a multitude of beautiful moments. The more you try to control negative feelings, the more they seem to be entrapping you. The best way out of this mesh is to develop ways by which you can shut off these negative voices screaming from every angle. Here’s how you can go about with it:
1. Be around positive people
Negative people can suck the life out of you. Even the most happening moment of your life will be made to look like a trifle. So be wary of such specimens and run like hell if you happen to spot them.
2. Reinforce yourself with positive moments
Every person has a bad day. But the idea is to keep the good and let go of the bad. Sadly, often we do just the opposite. If you cannot naturally get this practice, make it an exercise. Make it a point to think about something positive the moment someone has told you a negative issue. You need to hone in on the power of positive reinforcement.
3. Don’t gossip
Negativity stems from gossip. While there’s nothing wrong in engaging in small talk, it is just a few steps away from gossip. Talking bad about someone else equates to finding faults with oneself. So don’t bad mouth or think ill will of anyone and you will naturally be happy and positive.
4. Meditate and exercise
These are effective ways to kill negative thoughts. Adopting a meditative stance or sweating your way out will reinvigorate you. It is miracle way to ward off negative feelings.
5. Journalize your achievements
Whenever, misfortune smiles upon you, you smile at your fortunate days. It’s as simple as reading through your achievements as a student, as a friend or even as a lover. Surprisingly, thinking about a person who had a crush on you back in your school days can act as a positive spur too.
