It May Be Time to Shift Your Mindset.

If you encounter low energy or are not in the spirit of truth, you may need to consider altering your mindset. When you are unhappy, it can be due to negative thoughts. You analyze that you aren’t where you thought you would be, offering you a withering emotion. You are beginning to take captive everything that is going wrong.

When you start to dwell on negative thoughts, you form the stage to beat yourself down.

What’s harmful is this dilemma proceeds to evolve. Negativity nourishes itself. You will ultimately bring others down when you put yourself down with your thoughts. You will seek others who share your negativity because misery loves company. As the negative energy thrives, you fall deeper into the mental void.

Remember, the truth will not return void (Isaiah 55:11).

To turn this around, you first have to acknowledge what is happening. No one likes to confess to doing something wrong, but negative reasoning is disastrous if you entertain it. You have to strive and reflect on your life. Think back to when you were happy. Was it a couple of months ago or a couple of years?

This reflection will give you an adequate indication of when you began with negative thinking. When you were happy, it’s unlikely you were thinking negatively.

If you don’t believe you are negative, but feel down about your current circumstance, contemplate inquiring to friends and family about how you have been behaving recently. Tell them you want an honest review.

Unfortunately, you may lash out at their replies because you are in a negative mindset. That will upset them since you told them you want a truthful assessment. However, if it enables you to discern what you are doing, eventually, they will forgive you when you spin the situation around.

Once you have identified that you have a negative mindset, work hard to introduce positivity into your life. Meet your negativity with truth by seeking what God says about the negativity. God is so compassionate that He will meet where you are.

Set up a bad thoughts jar and whenever you declare something negative, deposit that thought on a piece of paper into the jar. You can do this at work, at home, or both. You know you have more work to do when you see the jar filling up.

Avoid other negative people as much as possible. They will attempt to bring you back down, knowingly and unknowingly. You may even let them do it. Restricting your exposure to these people is a significant stride on your journey toward a positive mindset shift.
