Drop The Negative

       Today I will talk about keeping the negative things out of reach. If you've been keeping up with my content you know that I've talked about making things easier(things that bring you closer to your dreams). What I haven't covered is how to let go of the negative things so that when you do consider cheating, it's not very easy.

       It's a very simple strategy. Here's an example. You love chips and you always eat them when you're hungry or bored. Now let us say you implement this strategy. Well, if you did, it would go something like this. You would not keep any bags of chips at home, in the office, or in your car. This way, the next time you feel like grabbing a bag a chips, you'll need to go to the store to get them. And I promise you 9x out of 10, you're not going to make the trip to the store. Basically, what you have done here is made it hard on yourself to do things you shouldn't be doing. 

        How does this work? Once you make the commitment and the decision to cut some unhealthy thing out of your life, saying no to it because easier to some degree. And if you add this strategy on top of that, saying no to it will become even easier. Because let's face it, if your putting all this time and energy into cutting this habit why would you spend even more energy to cheat your commitment?

       I always make sure that there are fruits and vegetables in the fridge and i also make sure that there aren't any unhealthy food in my home, not because i don't like chips or because i don't like candy, but because I'm committed to a healthy life, a great life. 

       Keep all the negative things out of reach and out of your environment and I promise you, you will be less vulnerable to negativity and more able to reject negativity.
