Unplug from Negative

Do you find yourself feeling a little bit drained sometimes from all the negative that goes on around you? Do you wish you could just devoid yourself of all that negative and focus on what it is that you want to achieve?

Hi, this is Grant Herbert, International Influencer and Sustainable Performance Coach, and today, I want to continue this building a foundation for January, so that we can have a greater success in 2020, by talking about Unplugging from Negative.

When we think about unplugging, what most people think about is, "Oh, unplugged from my social media", and that could be a good thing, but I think there's a lot more to it than that.

What we're talking about is unplugging from anything that's creating negative energy and throwing negative into our environment that then stops us from being who we need to be to move forward and do what we want to do and what we need to do in 2020.

• We need to unplug from anything that's toxic.
• We need to unplug from any people that are feeding us negative time and time again.
• We need to unplug from any media or press that's erring on the side of negative.
• We also need to unplug from habits that are not serving us.

So, when we unplug from the negative, obviously, what we're doing is we're allowing room for more of the good stuff. We're allowing room for more of the positive to be in our life and there are three things that I want to talk to you about in doing that.

The first thing is we need to protect our perspective. When we have an influx of negative all the time, our perspective on the world, our ability to be who we need to be to get done what we need to do can be damaged.

The second thing are our priorities and our priorities affect our focus. When we are off in the negative, we are listening to things that may or may not have anything to do with us and may actually take away energy and focus from our priorities.

The third area is our performance. The impact of positive in our life will allow us to have a greater level of performance. We'll get more done with the energy that we have and we'll have some leftover, so that we can enjoy what it is we do outside of our business.

So, what is it that you need to unplug from right now?

Go ahead. Before you do anything else, unplug from me and then sit down and work out, reflect on the things that you've taken on that are negative, reflect on the people that you've allowed to bring negative into your life, reflect on what you've been reading, what you've been doing, the thoughts that you've been having, and what do you need to unplug from so that that source no longer has a negative power over you.

So, that's it for me again this week. Next week, we're going to talk about the third area, which is unlearn. I'll see you then.
