Happy Valentine’s Day to you and everyone in my Real
Estate Insider Family. Rather than just fretting about being someone else’s Valentine this month, consider that your most important relationship is with yourself. Do you love yourself unconditionally? Do you even like yourself? If not, you may be looking for love in all the wrong places. It’s impossible to love others if you don’t love yourself first — after all, you can’t give from an empty well.

Loving and respecting yourself creates a healthier, more abundant and fulfilled life. Many of us mistakenly believe that change happens from external things, but it is far more effective to change ourselves first, because positive change and progress ultimately starts from within.

You have to be happy on your own — this is a choice that you must make yourself. When you choose happiness over anger, and self-love over self-loathing, you open yourself to life’s great pleasures. It helps you see the opportunities in front of you, and it helps you discover your true, authentic self. Changing our perspective on life is empowering, liberating, and motivating. It gives us a sense of freedom and achievement that is separate from being a means to successfully reaching our goals. As Eleanor Roosevelt said, “The future belongs to those who believe in the beauty of their dreams.” Onward and upward!

Turn Negative Thoughts
Into Positive, Productive Energy

"Your attitude, not your aptitude, will determine your altitude." 

- Zig Ziglar

If you live in the United States, you are probably much better off than the majority of the other people living on Planet Earth. In spite of our many blessings, it’s easy to fall victim to negative thinking. Unfortunately, negative thoughts distract you, drain you of energy and keep you from being in the present moment. The more you give into your negative thoughts, the stronger they become. On the flip side, a small positive thought can have the opposite effect, blossoming into a positive and profitable outcome.

When you start to have negative thoughts, it’s often hard to stop them. Shifting your focus from negative to positive thoughts is easier said than done, but it’s the only way to avoid going down an unnecessarily painful path.

When you find your thoughts tumbling down a negative slippery slope, here are 5 tips to turn those negative thoughts to positive energy:

1. Acknowledge your negative thoughts: Self- deception is very destructive and you can’t effectively
deal with a problem until you accept that you have one. Although you should acknowledge your negative thoughts, it’s important to remind yourself that the negative thought you are thinking is only a thought and has no power other than the power you give it. 

2. Smile: Smiling really does help change your mood and relieve stress. Smiling is evolutionarily contagious and we have a subconscious innate drive to smile when we see one. Surprisingly, smiling uses fewer muscles than frowning and therefore requires even less energy.

3. Seek out and surround yourself with positive people: When you’re stuck in a negative spiral, talk to people who can put things into perspective and won’t feed your negative thinking.

4. Change the tone of your thoughts from negative to positive: Changing the tone of your thoughts starts with rewording them. For example, instead of thinking, “This isn’t going to work because of X, Y and Z,” instead try to think, “We will face some challenges including X, Y and Z, but we will come up with solutions that will help us overcome them.”

5. Help someone else: Take the focus away from you and do something nice for another person. Negative thoughts are often selfish and narcissistic. Take your mind off your own issues and concerns for a moment—helping someone else will brighten your mood and make you feel better.

Good luck. Onward and upward!
