how to escape negativity

Escaping negativity in all its forms – many of which reside within your own mind – can be as simple as following this advice: instead of trying to avoid it, actively ignore it.

Here’s how it works. When you try to avoid a thing, you’re already giving it your attention. So when you try to avoid something as incredibly potent as negativity, it will immediately & mercilessly pollute you with its toxins. Not good.

A better alternative is to actively ignore negativity. And the best way to do that is by focusing all your attention on positivity!

Okay, like many simple things this may prove a little harder than it sounds. Fair enough. But while it’s true that all things are difficult before they are easy, they actually do get easier, so fear not.

I assure you that if you can set your attentions on positives and keep them focused there, you will remain permanently out of the pernicious reach of negativity.

And that, friends, is a pretty great way to go through life, wouldn’t you say?

we suffer more from imagination than reality

Many people are so afraid of the potential consequences of imagined failure that they spend all their time, energy & effort in trying to avoid them.

The problem is that in doing so, they fail to avoid the consequences of real failures that are completely within their power to avoid today.

Please consider this well; to squander your life out of fear would be a terrible waste.

self-reflection: the ab-work of life

One reason people assiduously avoid profound self-reflection is that it requires a great deal of effort and yet seldom delivers the immediate & tangible ROI they’re mistakenly anticipating.

The thing is, it’s worth it!
