Quit Complaining

This sums it all up quite nicely.

I have noticed lately that there has been some negative thoughts creeping into my life. While I think that being positive all the time is a bit of a myth and is difficult to sustain, being negative is not a trait that I find attractive. 


But equally having a false sense of positivity is unattractive and can be quite annoying. It's as though you don't get to know the real person when they are continually positive. After all who can be super positive all the time? Unless you are Pollyanna of course! 

 I've read that entertaining negative thoughts takes a big toll on your happiness and when I thought about this, it's true. It also has been affecting how I approach problems. My enthusiasm wanes and everything becomes a great effort. I procrastinate and out things off.  I feel like everything is in the too difficult box. I then find myself complaining that I have too much to do or that I am tired and have no energy to do anything.

Who likes a complainer? No one. I fear that I am becoming one of life's complainers.

So I have been trying to swap a negative thought with something positive or something funny. It's interesting to catch your approach to things and stop and rethink it through. I find trying to find the positive in things helps with my energy levels and I don't feel so weighed down. I feel lighter in body and mind.

So go on give it a go...... you don't want to be the person that people find unpleasant to be around. 


As in everything I try to do in life it is about keeping it real!
