Ask yourself this in your day to day, are you focused more on thank you or f@4k you?
If you are focused on the latter, you are likely to be pessimistic and unhappy. The negative outlook is expressed in traffic, or at your job with clients and customers, at home with your kids, spouse, pets and inanimate objects. Think about those two words and how they are working out for your life. Think about the supporting rationalizations of your attitude. Are they accurate? Are they true or are you giving into your own pattern of negativity or fear?
From personal experience, the many business owners, executives and employees I’ve worked with over the past 10 years, I have yet to meet someone who was not taking an active part of their own reality. The f@4k you attitude has yet to be bring anyone I know success and happiness. This tends to be the attitude of frustration atop layers of stress, worry, and all the way at the root; fear.
It is a quick hobble from fear to negativity in place of a positive, assertive action. Many people are afraid of poverty, boredom, losing their home, job, and livelihood but they make a choice to let that fear turn into negative emotion of resentment, anger, displaced aggression and distress. Fear can and should be used to create positive goals and from the goals comes executable actions and steps to be taken.
Addressing Negativity and Embracing Appreciation
1. Question your attitudes.
2. Question their reasoning.
3. Accept result and commit to change.
4. Schedule time-out to think about things for which you are thankful.
5. Write them down.
6. Rinse and Repeat.
Transforming Fears into Goals
1. Write down fears.
2. Get specific about those fears.
3. Write down goals that eliminate the fears.
4. Write steps that can be taken to achieve those goals.
These two practices alone can change your world into one of appreciation, positive attitude and real achievment.
