Avoid negativity

[signal_line]

Saw this:
The most important think you should avoid to become successful in life are negative people. These people are like weeds and they would stunt your development and stop you from reaching your dreams. They have nothing to offer as the wallow in their problems and fail to focus on solutions. They are energy suckers and you will feel drained being around them. So you shouldn’t surround yourself with such kind of people. Be around people who will bring a smile to your face, fill your heart with joy and push you toward greatness.

I was going to post on another thread about do dowsing rods work but it is closed.

The skeptics do not understand much about locating. They confuse lrl’s, dowsing, and psychic stuff. Big difference between these and a big mistake to lump them all together.

Yet this forum is filled with phrases like "mystic rod" and "psychic activity".

This is called magical thinking and it is an ERROR is logical thought.

There's a optimistic, the pessimistic, then there's the realistic way of doing things.
I side with being optimistic mostly when looking at things/tasks/hunting.
I look at people a tad pessimistic, until they have a say.
As I face the fact the body is wearing down, and the mind still is wanting to do everything, realistic then kicks me in the ass.

Yes, overly optimistic is to be avoided.

If you think about beginner’s luck, the person does not have any developed negative biases. In dowsing it is so easy to just blink your eyes and say “No, nothing here.” Some people are subconsciously afraid of any kind of wealth. Don’t want to be some rich, evil person.

I read a book about keeping positive, The guy said if you fill yourself with positive emotions, there’s not much room left for the negative.

I’m not any kind of counselor so I don’t know how a person might correct their problems. Part of being confident is doing the legwork ahead of time.

Keep active in your practicing. Sometimes I get bored and have to change the routine.

You must have a PHD in treasure hunting thanks for your input....

I agree 100 percent.....have had to distance myself from those energy sucking, negative minded, grumpy, depressed people. Sometimes it has hurt me to say ...... don't come by, lose my number, stop talking about me, and leave me alone. Fortunately I have had to do this only a few times in my life !! But it hurts each time for a little while after you sever ties......in the long term I think it was best for both parties involved. We are all probably a bit better off for it, and I have been able to have small interactions, and courteous conversations with these ex friends.....I would call them acquaintances now. It has revolutionized my life, and you never realize in the moment how much energy these people sap out of you.....this is only realized after the fact. You feel peace and and a sense of relief once these relationships are shed and abandoned.

You can't soar with the eagles if your down in the dirt with the dogs !!

One time one of these people gut punched me and knocked the wind out of me....
Hers what he said......metal detecting is the dumbest most stupid thing you could waist your time on. Your just wasting time picking up change and trash. You look like a little kid just pretending your a treasure hunter. You should throw that detector in the trash, and do something productive you idiot !!
And this is the type of friend I was hanging with.....total domination and control is what he wanted.....just a sick person, who couldn't believe he was sick and needed help.....so farewell and goodbye buddy !!

Don't need one, since it has nothing to do with treasure hunting, and everything to do with critical thinking.

I've found my share of treasure with a little research and careful thinking. The most powerful tool we have is our big brains and reasoning mind.

It saddens me people still believe in magical things outside of themselves when the real wonders lie within.

Maybe I can ask Santa to bring me some magic sticks to find treasure. Ho ho ho.

It's sadderns me to see you so sad , you really shouldn't worry about the ...magic sticks they won't hurt you and your negativity will never let you use them...

As a counselor (not trying to come across as a know it all as I have a lot to learn), there is considerable research that the brain has a negativity bias as a protective mechanism. In other words, part of its job is to scan for threats, worry, and look for what’s wrong. Kind of like it’s default mode, although it can be sidestepped with attention and effort. Couldn’t help but add my 2 cents. Thanks for posting!!

Btw, I should have not said “research”. It’s more like “theories”. Not sure how much empirical research has been conducted in the subject. Falls within the realm of cognitive psychology.

Once bitten, twice shy. This can get programmed into you brain. Not “can”, it does. “I’m never doing that again!”

Flaming enthusiasm backed up by horse sense and persistence is the quality that most frequently makes for success.

Read that and the first thing that pops up in the mind is

“I’m never doing that again!”=The school of hard knocks.

Though with many things in life it's like playing baseball the 3 strikes and it's out rule regardless.

I highly recommend this book "The Power of Your Subconscious Mind" by Joseph Murphy Ph.D. Really great, life-changing read.
