Negative People and Situations – Part 2

So often we think that the job or boss is responsible for our plight and we look for another job thinking that will solve it. Sometimes it does… at least for a while. Marriage and divorce are no different. We convince ourselves that an outside change will make the difference because we think it will be less painful than looking inside of ourselves for the answer.
Negative people and circumstances are forever. Be excited about that. Negativity is proof of positivity. Without one, there is no need for another. And does anyone seriously want a world with no challenge, failure, or heartbreak? If so, you’ll have to deal with a world without achievement, success, and love. Not much fun if you ask me.

Negative people and situations

Often, the voice of the controversy is needed to make sure the best decision is made. When someone brings up a point or asks a question that slows the momentum of a decision, honor it. Make sure that question is answered as best you can before moving on. That perceived negativity might turn out to be the moment of clarity that saves you massive heartache down the road.

Finding significance for the right reasons

History is filled with stories, fables, and myths of people wanting to have significance. The boy who cried wolf, Napoleon, Adolf Hitler… why do you want to be significant?

Positivity – Fake or Fuel

Positive Mental Attitude (PMA) is not about escaping reality or blissful ignorance. PMA is about conditioning your mind to look for opportunity and possibility in the face of adversity.

Using Groups To Go Farther

Going it alone may seem daring and bold, but it frequently is the worst thing we can do.

Willful Blindness To My Life’s Vision

We are told very clearly that this isn’t about having as much as someone else, but about being obedient to do the most with what we have. To those who much is given, much is expected. In addition, we plainly see that everyone is given something and therefore, there is an expectation on us all. Can anyone really argue that it should be any other way?

Does your goal fit your life vision

The purpose of vision as it pertains to your goals is a simple one. If we are working toward a goal with a specific outcome, we have to know what the accomplished goal looks like.
