1/7/05: STOP negativity

When you find yourself in a moment of negativity, realize that you are creating an opportunity for more negativity to come into your life, and then stop. Just stop!

Physically stop what you are doing. Yell "STOP!" if you must. But just stop. Take charge of your next moment. Use it to think of something positive. Preferably something that incites a strong emotion. It does not have to be related to what you were just negative about. It can be anything that will incite a positive emotion which will, in turn, incite positive vibrations.

When you see a baby laugh, does it make you laugh too? How does it make you feel to hold a puppy? What happened last time someone surprised you with a kind deed?

This is not merely about positive thinking or finding the good in a perceived bad situation. This is simply about vibrating at a higher frequency. It is simply about feeling good about something, anything, immediately after you feel bad. You are not necessarily replacing a bad thought or feeling, you are simply using your next moment to have a good thought or feeling.

That is all there is to it. The more you do this, the more moments you have of feeling good than moments of feeling bad, the more good moments will come into your life.
