Dealing With Negative Thoughtsਨਮੂਨਾ

The importance of dealing with our negative thoughts and mindset cannot be overlooked.

A negative frame of mind can become the catalyst for destructive behavior and actions, and this transformation can come rapidly. A negative mindset, if left unchecked, can lead us down paths that we’re not meant to go down.

Living with a negative mindset is similar to driving a car through the fog without your headlights on. We are unable to sift through the fog nor make out any signs or hazards along the way. A negative mindset alters and distorts our perception of reality. It taints our decision making skills and worse, it’s contagious.

As much as we may try to shield others from this, our negative thinking will bleed over into every aspect of our lives if we allow it to grow freely. Our peers may then have to shoulder the weight of our negativity, often leading them to follow suit.

Negativity is a virus that breeds rapidly, and spreads even quicker. When we begin to take notice of a consistently negative mindset, we must take the steps necessary to ensure that we get to the root of the problem, address it, and ask God for the best plans moving forward to ensure that we can defeat this negativity for good. By taking your concerns to God, you can be certain that you are receiving the best advice possible for properly dealing with the negative thoughts that you’re having.

He leads us in periods of uncertainty. When we are surrounded by darkness, He is the light that guides our feet. When all we see around us is negativity, we must look towards Him to find the good, and then share this good with those around us.

Negative thoughts may arise, hidden within the vessel of stress and uncertainty, but they have no room within the plans that He has created for us!
