How to Stop the Negative Voices in Your Mind

You must not be your own worst enemy

As I’ve gotten older, I think I have finally learned not to be defeated by my own negative thinking.

Attitude is everything!

If your attitude is always negative, well guess what? You will never lead a positive life.

Have you ever felt great about a decision you made or an accomplishment and then suddenly, this little voice in your head starts spewing negative thoughts?

For example:

“What are you thinking?”

“You’ll never succeed at that!”

“What makes you think you can do this?”

On and on it goes. Where it stops, nobody knows.

We’ve all been there. Feeling good one minute and then visited by self doubt the next minute.

Tell the little voice to “SHUT UP!”

You are the only one that can do it. You must be in control of your life. No one else can hear the little voice. (Thank goodness!)

If you continue to listen to it, you will always have a constant battle going on in your mind and it will occupy your thoughts and leave no room for anything else.
