Don't Use Negative Statements

Many times in our life we go through circumstances that persuade us to give up. In such times we are tempting to make negative statements about our selves, about other people or about the situation: “I’m a loser, my boss s___s, and this is the most terrible time in my life.”

I know it is hard to say something good or nice when something bad happen to us. But making negative statements give us negative mental attitude that will take us far from the solution.

Most peak performers in life, whether in business or in sports, refuse to use negative statements. Because they know, by their experiences, negative statements will take them nowhere then down. They know that negative statements will only make them negative persons and negative persons never reach the peak. Words precede results.
