Successful people eradicate all negative thoughts by thinking and acting positively, every day. In today’s society, negativity is everywhere – from murders reported by the news to advertisements that try to make us feel fat or ugly. But it’s not only the media being negative. Even the people closest to us often spew “you-can’t-make-it-so-don’t-even-try” propaganda – for example, your best friends might start criticising your dream of becoming president of a company.
After a while, we get so used to negative thinking that it feels normal. Our negative thoughts work like mental monsters: the more we let them into our psyche, the stronger they become, until they completely overpower our positive thinking.
But the truth is that negative thinking isn’t normal or healthy. In fact, it’s one of the main things that keeps people from becoming successful. This is why people who say “it can’t be done” are almost always unsuccessful or average.
Clearly, then, it’s necessary to get rid of that negativity in order to achieve your dreams.
To do this, start thinking and acting positively every day. This will help you eradicate negativity by not giving it space to fester in your mind.
The best way you can do this is by writing yourself a pep talk that reads like an advertisement: a “sell-yourself-to-yourself” commercial in which you remind yourself of your best traits and of how they distinguish you from everyone else.
