Have you wondered why negative thoughts seem to have the power to bring you down and get you emotionally stuck? Do you have the same negative thoughts spinning around your head? Do you wish you didn’t think negatively but simply don’t know how to stop?
WHY IT’S SO HARD TO STOP THINKING NEGATIVELY
The main reason it’s so hard to eliminate negative thoughts is that you are in an unhealthy relationship.
I want you to think about an unhealthy and abusive relationship you have witnessed in real life or in fiction. To everyone else, it seems so obvious that the relationship is unhealthy and destructive but the person stays. You probably ask yourself “Why are they still in that relationship? Can’t they see how terrible and unhealthy it is?”
This is the same with your unhealthy and negative thoughts. To your friends and family they will tell you they are not true and yet you still believe and listen those negative lies about yourself, your failures and insecurities.
The reason the person stays in an abusive relationship is the same reason you keep listening to the negative thoughts
The word Abusive – is defined as an effect in a bad way, treat with cruelty regularly / repeatedly.
If your thoughts result in you acting in negative ways, where you hurt yourself emotionally, mentally, spiritually, physically then they are abusing you. you have given your power up to those abusive thoughts.
If you are listening to thoughts that are not serving you, meaning they are NOT helping you make desired changes, achieve your goals, improving your relationships then you are in an unhealthy relationship with your thoughts.
You need help, accountability, identify the hurtful thoughts, make them real and outside of your head, recognize your triggers.
