Step 2: Rid Your Life of Negativity
If you want to live a positive, joyful and happy life, you cannot –- absolutely CANNOT -– be surrounded by negative people who are not encouraging your happiness. Negative people attract other negative people.
When
I decided to make the change to live a more positive life, I had to rid my life
of all of the negative people in it. This, as you can imagine, wasn’t easy.
Getting rid of people hurts -– even when you know they aren’t good for you or
your current lifestyle.
Not
only did I have to get rid of the negative people, but I also had to get rid of
the negative things too. I had to stop doing certain things that were causing
negativity in my life. I had to take a step back and examine which behaviors
were good for me and which were not.
I
learned to focus on the positive things I was doing and let go of the negative
ones. This process was not easy and to be honest, is still ongoing, but I know
this: having negativity in your life prevents you from living a truly positive
existence and from being truly happy.
