Opponents or Enemies? Reframe Your Thinking
What would happen if you could change your thoughts about certain people and situations, going from negative thoughts to more optimistic ones? Will this help you as you traverse work and life?
I am very familiar with the content of today's article on Reframing your Thinking. I was part of many sessions with a group of managers tasked with a daunting challenge that required them to overhaul their teams' approach to work and their own. In other words, let's cross-train everyone in the groups so that people can quickly move from one assignment to another when needed. Were the managers onboard and ready to go with this new idea? No, not really. That's where reframing your thoughts came into play.
Today's article starts off this way:
You're only human, after all, and you're far from being alone: as per stats from the National Science Foundation, you think anything from 12,000 to 50,000 thoughts every single day - of which, around 80% are negative.
Surprising? Probably not, given the constant barrage of sad news, societal pressures, and, well, the small matter of our human predisposition to think 80% negative, 20% positive thoughts. That being said, there's a huge amount of power in being able to both identify and further, reframe negative thoughts when they do pop up. After all, as with meditation, the more you practice, the better you'll get, and the more you'll control the negative rhetoric, rather than letting it control you.
Have you ever wondered how to stop the constant buzz of criticism, nitpicking, and slurs whirring around in your head? Enter stage right, Your expert-led guide to How to Reframe Negative Thoughts ,
Take care and be aware of your thoughts today!
