Stuck in a Negativity Cycle? Here‘s how to get out #BeingReal
Brian Tracy talks about 4 actionable ways to get out of the negativity rut:
- Stop justifying: "You can only be negative as long as you can justify, that you are entitled to be angry or upset for a reason.
- Refuse to Rationalize and Make excuses: You attempt to give a socially acceptable explaination for an otherwise socially unacceptable act.
- Rise above opinions of others: Hypersensitivity is a cause of upset that generally stems from low self worth.
- No one else is responsible: Blaming other people for your problems is the propensity of all problems.
- and, Responsibility is the antidote!

The Golden Triangle - Secret Formula to Contentment
It seems that all three - responsibility, control and happiness go together.
The more responsibility you accept, the greater amount of control you have. The greater amount of control you have, the happier you are, and the more confident you become. When you feel positive and in control of life, you set bigger goals and challenges.
So remember to start small and take charge of one little thing today :)

Create your 5 year Fantasy! #Idealization
In personal strategic planning, you should begin with a long term view of your life and begin with practicing idealization in everything you do.
Begin thinking about what your life would look like in 5 years, if it were perfect in every way!
By combining idealization and future-orientation, you cancel the process of self-limitaion.
You imagine that you have no limitations at all on what you could be, have or do, which leads to setting true goals for your life.

Blue Sky Thinking - A technique to imagine no limits :)
Charles Garfield made an interesting discovery in Peak Performers :)
He analysed people who had achieved only average results their entire lives, but had suddenly exploded into great success, and found that at their take off point, everyone of them engaged in Blue Sky Thinking.
Imagine looking up at a clear blue sky, with no limits. Project forward several years and imagine your life was perfect in every way.
What would have to have happened for you to create that perfect life?
Once you have the answer to this, come back to the present moment and cause :)

Your personality is made of 5 rings:
Your Values
Your Beliefs
Your Expectations
Your Attitude
Your Actions.
The inner most ring (values) gives the outermost ring. For example, if your value is abundance - that the world is a good world to live in, your belief is that you're going to be very successful in life, you will expect that everything that happens to you is h
elpful in someway.
As a result, you have a positive mental attitude and you will act with love, faith and trust in the world. :)
So what is it that you value?
