015: How To Outsmart Negativity

In this episode I'm going to teach you three highly effective ways to outsmart negativity!
1. Focus on Feeling Good
- Pay attention to your feelings throughout the day
- Be aware and identify the name for the feeling on the Emotional Guidance Scale (source: Abraham Hicks Publications)
- Make subtle shifts in your feelings to move toward feeling good more of the time

The Emotional Guidance Scale (source: Abraham Hicks Publications):
1. Joy/Appreciation/Empowered/Freedom/Love
2. Passion
3. Enthusiasm/Eagerness/Happiness
4. Positive Expectation/Belief
5. Optimism
6. Hopefulness
7. Contentment
8. Boredom
9. Pessimism
10. Frustration/Irritation/Impatience
11. Overwhelment
12. Disappointment
13. Doubt
14. Worry
15. Blame
16. Discouragement
17. Anger
18. Revenge
19. Hatred/Rage
20. Jealousy
21. Insecurity/Guilt/Unworthiness
22. Fear/Grief/Depression/Despair/Powerlessness

2. Change your language!
- Start being aware of what you say.
- Change "I'm SO busy." to "I have more than enough time for everything I need."
- Change "I'm tired." to "I am always energetic and alert."
- Change "I have so much to do." to "I quickly finish what is on my to-do list."

3. Stop comparing yourself to others.
- This combo of self doubt and competitiveness isn't serving anyone, especially you!
- It's a trap! We are all on our own journeys on this earth.
- Hide/unfollow people who trigger you, find and follow people who inspire you!
- Take the time to define your own journey and goals. Focus on THAT!

Here's to making lots of friends and making lots of money!
