Fighting Negativity - Part 1 There was a guy who was about to jump off the Benjamin Sheares Bridge. Fortunately, a friend happened to pass by and stopped him at the nick of time. “Why? Why do you want to end your life?” They discussed for about half an hour. Finally, both of them jumped off the bridge. I have told this joke to initiate a dialogue about one of the worst diseases in society. It’s called negativity. Why do I call negativity the worst disease? Because any other disease can only destroy the body. Negativity destroys the body, soul and spirit. Unfortunately, there is a dark cloud of negativity looming over many areas of society. It is almost pervasive in our life. Negativity can be found in the mass media. It includes many social media sites such as websites and e-forums. Negativity very often dominates thoughts, words, and actions. Negativity can consciously or unconsciously cause a cascading effect. It affects your well-being. As a result, it will also influence your family, work, team, company, and community. It can start a potential negative tsunami that can destroy lives. We must turn back the tide of negativity and flood our lives with positiveness. Please join me in a Revolution Against Negativity. Positiveness starts with you and me. How you see the world will oftentimes determine what the world will be to you. If you think negatively, you are inclined to be negative. When you think positively, you will have positive outcomes. I’m sure you’ve heard about the two persons who look out of the same window. One person saw a beautiful moon, the other saw mud. If you give the same donut to the same two persons, one will see the doughnut, the other will see the hole. The same two persons can be caught in darkness. One will complain about darkness while the other will light a candle and lead people out of darkness. Which person do you choose to be? Will you join me to turn the tide against negativity? V
