< Go Back Making the most of the next two months Posted: Oct 14, 2015 A top tip to help you
feel more positive and achieve more by Christmas 2015
When bad things happen
to us it is easy to focus on the problems and how bad things are. We say things like "it's not fair - why does
this always happen to me?" or "this is impossible, there's nothing I can do
about it", and the more we repeat these negative thoughts to ourselves the more
debilitating they become. These helpless
thoughts then produce negative energy which builds and builds until we can see
nothing but the problems and become totally unable to do anything about them. But all is not lost provided we remember to
focus on solutions and not problems.
There is always
something you can do to change the situation
If you'd like a more
positive and successful end to 2015 try changing your viewpoint and
attitude. Instead of seeing things as 'problems', focus your energies on finding solutions. Thinking of your problems as challenges to be
solved will give you clarity of thought and enable you to focus positive energy
into finding solutions. Even if a
problem seems insurmountable just tell yourself 'I don't yet know what the
answer to this challenge is but I'm sure I can find one - there's always
something I can do to change the situation".
Remember; you cannot
change something that has already happened so why waste energy worrying about
it? Instead, focus all your energies on
finding a course of action that will take you forward into a positive situation
and give you back control of your life. Once
you are able to focus on solutions rather than problems you'll find your whole
life becomes more positive, more productive and more rewarding.
