Connections | Summer 2014 6 Most of us are all dealing with negative issues in our lives. It could be something like a mistake you made years ago, a negative family member or maybe it's your health. Well let me tell you you're not alone, I am right there with you. I always have negative thoughts and ideas attacking me. They try to keep me from fulfilling my dreams and achieving success. If you are like me, we all let our doubts, fears and insecurities get the best of us. I like to call it a "negative storm." This "negative storm" can cause someone to feel stuck, lost and full of anxiety. It is the fear of the unknown that builds up in our mind and takes over like a dark cloud. This dark cloud follows us and rains on us, making us negative in our personal and professional lives. As humans, we sometimes focus on the negative and stay under that negative cloud that we created. We must understand that we can walk from under this cloud at any time, and we have the power to make our days sunny and bright. I am sharing with you seven ways that I have found to be the most effective when attempting get through your personal "negative storm" and live a more productive and positive lifestyle along with my Get off Your Attitude Exercise (GOYA-cise) to get you moving. 1. Think Positive Thinking Positive is probably the most important of the ways that I can share with you, because you know that everything starts in the mind. Thoughts turn into feelings, which then turn into actions. If you tell yourself you can't do something, you will ultimately find failure. If you tell yourself you can do it, you have increased your chances of accomplishing that goal. Keep your mind clear and your thoughts positive. This way will bring great success to you in your personal and professional life. Make 2014 Your Year of Success with Your Positive Attitude America's Positive Attitude Coach Ryan Lowe
