Today I realized something….
Today I realized I can do whatever I want, and be whoever I want.
So what’s stopping the population from achievement?
Remember as a child when your parents said;
“You are who you surround yourself with”?
I am just now grasping the importance of this statement.
If you want more motivation, surround yourself with others who have the same drive.
If you want to be less negative. Surround yourself with positive people.
SIMPLE.
The first step is being aware. Do you know what “circle” you’re currently in?
Here are three things negative people say:
1. “BUT”
BUT what if your website doesn’t work? BUT what if no one likes what you have to say? BUT how do you know your idea will take off? BUT I’m sure everyone is already doing that.
BUT Is a major word in the negative category. Cut it out and go for it!
2. “YOU CAN’T DO THAT”
“You can’t do that because It will never work”. Well excuse me, my first response would be “Why the hell not”? This is usually followed by a response that is not logical. “You just can’t”. To this I say. Do not let someone ruin your dreams and discredit your imagination. There is no logical reason why you CANT do anything.
3. “WHAT ABOUT ME”
We all have those friends who seem to take everything so personal. Do you find yourself saying I’m sorry my goals are hindering your potential happiness? Think about yourself. You only live once people. Don’t get me wrong you should care for others, yet when it’s at the expense of you living your life, it’s too much. Negative people use this logic because they are afraid of your success. Why? Your friends should SUPPORT you right? Negative people rely on others too much for happiness. This means your success translates to a sense of abandonment. Your real friends will be right there with you for the ride.
Make your circle strong. It protrays who you are more than you think.
In simple terms……
“You cannot expect to live a positive life if you hang with negative people.”
