I did an experiment for the last 30 days were I only accepted positive things and claimed nothing but positive outcomes. I did not let a negative thought cross my mind. Well at least I tried.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I wore a rubber band for thirty straight days and nights (yes I swapped out the rubber bands).\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n I would pop myself anytime a negative thought crossed my mind. If I doubted myself (pop). If I wanted to get upset (pop). If I didn’t think I deserved it (pop). I did this so much that my mind started to correlate negative thoughts with pain.<\/p>\n Remember the mind can be trained. After 30 days I noticed that I did not allow myself to think negatively. I noticed that I did not need the rubber band to create a positive mindset.<\/span><\/p>\n What I also noticed is my positive mindset led to more positive energy being returned to me.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0I truly believe that the energy we put out in the universe, is the same energy we receive.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Once you understand the importance of having that positive attitude, you are going to want to keep it.<\/p>\n Here are some ways I keep a positive mindset:<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I believe that we must be gracious for the things we receive. If we are gracious, we will show gratitude. If you have gratitude you will be positive.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I believe that having a routine allows you to focus your mind. If you have a focused mind it does not allow your mind to drift to negative thoughts. Goals allow your mind to be focused on a specific subject.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n When you use negative words (not). I can not go. I will not make it. You automatically place negative thoughts into your head. Instead say I can go to the movies if I get this done. Switching words remove the negative words and replace them with positive goals.\u00a0<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n Remember the mind can be trained.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n I have a wife and 3 kids I believe that it is my job to make them burst out laughing at least once a day. 1 good healthy laugh is my goal a day. This keeps me in a positive mindset. I can not have negative thoughts or be unhappy if I am going to achieve this goal.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Yes I do cheat and sometimes tickle them if I am tired but hey a laugh is a laugh.<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Remember that a Man of Health’s job is to improve the life of the people around him.\u00a0<\/p>\n The only way he can do this is to have a positive mindset, so put on your rubber bands on and change your mindset.n<\/p>\n \u00a0<\/p>\n <\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\n
