Hello Everyone & Welcome Back to the RealPositiveGirl Podcast!
Thank you so much for joining me again!
Happy Tuesday!
This week's theme for the podcast is: No More Negativity
A lot of us spend more time talking, sharing & focusing on the negatives in our life, when we need to be spending more time highlighting the positives.
This week I want to talk about some tips to rid yourself of negativity in relation to your thoughts, self-doubt, worry, perfectionism, control issues, and complaining habits.
Here are some notes from today's episode:
- Self doubt & worry play into personal negativity pretty hard because these are emotions we are thrusting upon ourselves.
- Worry causes a spiral of fear & anxiety because it’s the neverending anticipation of uncertain events & an unknown future.
- Try to pay attention to your thoughts. Be aware of what you are thinking about, what emotions those thoughts bring out of you, & how you are overall affected.
- Becoming more mindful will allow you to change your thoughts and spin it into something else.
- I always talk about the 5 Minute Reset and that is another way to combat worry. Take the actual worry out of it and take some time to regain peace & clarity, allowing you a better opportunity to problem-solve instead of dwell.
- I feel like social media brings up feelings in us we didn’t even know we could worry or care about. And those in our lives that tend to burden us with their extra baggage can be an issue as well. We need to establish boundaries, even with social media to cut out any extra worrying opportunities.
- Practicing gratitude is always a good option. It helps to humble you & set your mind in the right perspective.
- I know I always talk about being self aware, but it’s super important and I am going to mention it here again. By asking yourself questions and finding out if your worrying is rational, necessary or productive, it will help to lessen it and redirect your mental energy to problem solving or letting go all together. Maybe it’s just not your issue to deal with.
- Get it out on paper & go from there.
- Self doubt it not only coming after & questioning your current abilities, but also the potential for new ones in the future. It’s kind of like holding ourselves captive for fear we won’t succeed.
- Here are a few ways to break away from self doubt:
- First, remind yourself that you are capable of doing the things you are doing & have the ability & competence to try new things without the weight of winning or losing.
- Create a list of current accomplishments.
- Stop comparing yourself to others.
- Know that your efforts are totally worth it because even if you don’t succeed, you will still learn & grow through the experience.
- And when trying new things, don’t rush it. There is no timer, even if you feel like there is one and it’s not a race. People who say there is are speaking directly from their pride.
- Make small changes along the way to become more confident & fearless. Build up to that mindset to prevent you from becoming overwhelmed.
- Lastly, keep trying, even when you make mistakes and don’t have any regrets.
