Being around negative people produces a negative attitude and negative feelings. However, I found a way to cope with those negative attitudes and feelings – stay away from those who cause negativity.
It isn’t an easy solution, especially when the negative person you’re around is a family member. Up until 2015 and 2016 that was my life. My parents were the negative force in my life, and I mean force. Just a few minutes in their presence was enough to bring about every negative thought and attitude in me.
What did I do to get rid of the negativity? I put on praise and worship music. I affirmed who I am in Jesus Christ. Doing that gave me an immediate mood shift.
How do you cope with negativity? I’d like to hear in the comments. Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me. My parents.
