Do you often feel upset, down, disappointed or frustrated?
Are you allowing your mind to think about problems, failure, obstacles or bad health?
Do you worry a lot?
If you do, it means that you are a victim of negative thinking. This is a form of victim mentality.
You suffer and feel bad, because you allow negative thoughts to occupy your mind. You are making yourself a victim of these thoughts and are allowing them to affect how you think, feel and act.
Is this necessary?
Do you really want to feel bad and create unhappy and irritating situations?
You surely do not want that!
Don’t Be a Victim of Negative Mentality
If you let negative thoughts invade into your mind, you are surrendering to them and giving them mastery over your life. You are letting these negative thoughts rule your life.
Just consider how much time and energy you spend on worries, fears or anxiety!
It is just wasted time and energy, which you could have used to better purposes!
If you do nothing to prevent negative thinking, its power over you will grow, which means that you will expect failure and problems, and therefore, you will not try to improve your life.
The best way to prevent negative thinking is to focus on its opposite, on positive thinking.
You don’t need to fight your negative thoughts, because this means you will focus on them, making them even stronger. It is better better focus on solutions, on finding a way out, on positive mental images, on doing things and on taking action.
When you fight unhappy and negative thoughts you direct your mental energy to them, making them stronger. Instead, it is wiser to direct your thoughts to positive and happy topics.
Positive mentality is an acquired mindset, which requires some training. You can find guidance and advice in the book about positive thinking.
This of course might take some time and requires persistence on your part. You are changing the habits of your mind, and this takes time.
Allowing negative thinking means allowing a victim mentality to grow
Remember, your feelings and thoughts, actions and reactions, are the mirror of your thoughts.
This means you have to be careful with what you think, because your thoughts program your subconscious mind, build habits, affect your behavior, and shape the situations you meet.
