DAY 5
HOW TO PROTECT YOURSELF FROM THE NEGATIVITY OF OTHERS
You have taken it upon yourself to grow as a human being. Inevitably you will face resistance, or the appearance of resistance, in the form of negative people and negative self-talk from your mind.
YOU MUST PROTECT YOURSELF FROM NEGATIVITY!
Avoid negative people and situations. Do not allow anyone the opportunity to douse their negative energy on you as you try to evolve. It is not necessary to explain to anybody where your new mental attitude is coming from, or where the cash is flowing from, unless they are completely supportive and genuinely interested.
Do not argue or defend your new ideas to anyone! Ignore them, and get away from anybody who cannot understand the psychological principles you are learning in this program. This is the easy part.
You must also banish the negative self-talk that incessantly occurs in your mind. Replace all negativity, criticism and self-doubt with an honest belief in your ability to change anything in your life.
You do not have to pretend that you do not have problems, or that things do not always go smoothly, but you must realize that you have the ability to solve any of your problems, and the potential to attain all of your goals. This is not blind hope, but literal fact.
The easiest way to banish negativity from your life is to have an optimistic view towards the future. Perhaps your past has been filled with negativity and pain, but there is no reason to drag this pain with you as you grow older. You have the power to make you life a positive expression of your spirit. Realize that you have the power to change anything in your life with which you are unsatisfied. This knowledge will give you the strength to go beyond the negativity we are all surrounded by. Also, with positivity and optimism, it is much easier to turn your problems into opportunities for growth.
I WILL AVOID NEGATIVE PEOPLE AND I WILL NOT ENGAGE IN NEGATIVE SELF-TALK. I KNOW THAT I CAN HANDLE ANY OF MY PROBLEMS IF I COMMIT TO CHANGING THEM. I HAVE NOW COMMITTED TO FINANCIAL ABUNDANCE, AND SO I WILL REACH MY GOALS.
TAKE ACTION: Optimism for the future is the easiest shortcut to banish negativity. Today, create for yourself a simple, short statement of positivity that you can repeat to yourself whenever you feel doubt, or fear, or anger. A good example is “I am healthy, wealthy, and wise,” or “Everyday, in every way, I am getting better and better,” or simply “Everything is going my way.” Find a statement that you are comfortable with and apply it throughout your day.
“Without doubt, the most common weakness of all human beings is the habit of leaving their minds open to the negative influence of other people.”
