Every day in human life there are parts that can seem like groundhog day. We have to breathe in O2 and breathe out Co2, eat and drink daily as well as going to the toilet. We repeat this action until the day we pass on to the next life. One other part of our day that we can’t get away from is negative thoughts. It can be as simple as doubting yourself or judging someone by the way they look or act. Even though you have never spoken it. That’s why there needs to be a circuit breaker in the mind to change your mindset.
We are all at fault for negative thinking, even the most positive person you can think of. The main difference is that some people live in the negative thoughts they have and halts their growth. While others quieten the negative thinking and replace it with seeds of positivity.
Like all habits, the way you think and act is a by-product of your environment. Who you listen to, what you read and where you work matters in the production of negative thinking or positive action.
Below are simple ways you can change your mindset into positive action. The benefits of health, wealth and wellbeing are strongly connected with the way we think. Creating a mindset that helps those three areas of life comes from positive thinking and action.
3 Quick Ways To Change Your Mindset To Postive Action
Write Down All Your Negative Thoughts
This might sound counterintuitive when we need to focus on positive action. But letting problems and negative thinking build up in the mind. Will only clog the mind where positivity will find it hard to break through. By writing down all your negative thoughts about yourself, your actions, your life and whatever else you can think of. You will release your mind of the weight of all your negativity.
This practice should be part of your self-care routine once a week or once a month.
The next part is the positive action. With everything you have written down, you will write down a solution for each one. For example, if you write down “I’m not smart enough” you can find a solution where you can start reading books, complete a degree, listen to a podcast and say to yourself every day “I am smart enough.”
By finding solutions to everything on your list you will start changing your personality, thoughts, habits and actions into positive ones that will propel your life forward.
By the end of it, you will feel great and have yourself the intention to grow.
Become Self Aware Of Your Thoughts
Without self-awareness, nothing can change. By practising conscious thinking you will start to recognise patterns in your life that have become autopilot where the body controls the mind.
First, you have to observe yourself throughout your day and spot when you produce negative thinking and what triggers it. You have to question whether it’s your job, spouse or living location?
Whatever it is first becoming self-aware can allow you to find ways to overcome the triggers that set you off into negative thinking.
For me, it can be as easy as reading the news. As you know 95% of news is all doom and gloom and purposely done to tap into our tribal mind in some cases.
Once I was self-aware of this. I changed my news intake to the latest scientific studies I am interested in, good news apps and sports news. This allowed my mind not to get sucked into problems that don’t concern me or affect my mindset.
I see now if it’s important enough to affect my life like a health pandemic. I will find out either way.
Create A Positive Environment
The environment you live your life in matters when it comes to the way you think. If you’re in a job, a household or social networks that are of negative thinking. They will drag you down and you will start seeing yourself thinking and talking as they do.
That’s why it’s in your control of where you work, what city you live in and whom you spend your free time with.
Creating an environment that fosters positivity makes it so much easier to fight negative thoughts and produce positive actions.
Imagine if you decided to give up alcohol or cigarettes and everyone around you drunk or smoked. It would a lot harder prospect with many more temptations challenging you to give in.
Review every part of your life and what actions you can do today that help makes it a much positive environment to be in.
Take Charge Of Your Mind
When the body controls the mind you want to hope that the habits you have formed are extraordinary. Unfortunately in most cases, it’s not. That’s why you have to be in the driving seat of your minds decision making when it comes to thoughts. Being in the passenger seat of your life keeps you on a path you have no control over.
With simple tips to start above and having the mindset of conscious thinking. You are on the way to creating a mindset that can make you happy but achieve all the things you want to achieve.
