NEGATIVE THOUGHTS

According to a poll of 2,000 adults from Noom, a psychology-backed behavior change program (* which you can plainly tell from their name), the average person has up to 11 negative thoughts a day – including “I’m not good enough,” “I’m overweight,” and “I’m not good looking.”
– 34 percent feel they are letting themselves down.
– 32 percent worry more about disappointing others.
– 37 percent feeling like they are their own worst enemy.
– The best way to overcome negative thoughts: maintain a busy lifestyle, keep giving yourself positive affirmations, and practice mindfulness (observing your own thoughts and feelings without judging them).
* I find being distracted by a donut works wonders.
* You can triple those numbers by asking people how many negative thoughts they have about OTHERS.
* I actually AM my own worst enemy, and I swear I’m gonna get that guy!
* It’s always good to compare your situation to others. I bet no one listening right now has run over themselves with their own snowplow, so that’s a positive.
