Ever stub your toe on a hidden dust bunny lurking in the corner? I haven’t either, and I would be quite shocked if I did. Either way, Negativity can feel just as unexpected and unwelcome as finding a large pile of dust bunnies somewhere. It accumulates in the quiet spaces of our minds, waiting to trip us up if left unchecked.

But just like those dust bunnies under the couch and in the corners, negativity doesn’t have to win! This quote by our Acting Director of Positivity reminds us: “Negativity is like dust bunnies – it accumulates in corners if left unattended. Regularly sweep away negativity with acts of kindness and positive reframing.”

The key is to be proactive. Here’s how to banish negativity and embrace a brighter outlook:

Shine a Light on Kindness: Perform random acts of kindness, big or small. A compliment to a stranger, volunteering your time, or simply holding the door open can shift your perspective and inspire positivity in others.

Reframe Your Thinking: Challenge negative thoughts. Instead of dwelling on “what ifs,” focus on the positive possibilities.

By regularly sweeping away negativity with acts of kindness and positive reframing, you create a clean and inviting space for happiness to flourish. So grab your metaphorical broom, chase away those negativity dust bunnies, and watch your world sparkle with joy!

What if this is it..? The realization that all moments of your experience IS the peak of life's experience. Now is always where the power is. If you recognize this, ask yourself what it is that you love to have in your life? 💭 What baby step can you take right now to make that happen in the near future? 📝. . We live in a world where people's minds waver back and forth between the past and the future, regretting what's already gone and worrying about what's to come. A wavering mind is an unsettled mind, and its an unhappy mind. . When one takes a moment to embrace and make peace with the present moment, knowing that the present moment is all there is, all you have, and all there ever will be, peace and power will fill you and overfill to the spaces around you. Now is where the power is, so make the present moment the primary focus on your life.  . Relax, take a deep breath and own up to the present, and know this moment you are alive, still breathing and all it's well. 🌹🌱 When your mind stops wavering back-and-forth between the past and future, it finds momentary peace and beauty of life that has already been right in front of you all along. . It has been an unprecedented year for all of us. Let's refocus to back to the present moment frequently to reclaim power back for ourselves, so we can be ever infinitely stronger and better going forward 💪. . Sending you all much love and courage for the week to come🌹 ❤ @goodluckomens . . . #thisisit #recognize #powerofnow #presentmoment #beaware #awareness #notpast #notfuture #embracetheNOW #now #iam #allthereis #stopworrying #future #stopcrying #overthepast #letitgo #nowholdspower #deepbreath #youaresafe #youarealive #youarespirit #youareokay #reframeyourthinking #liveandlearn #growandlive #follow #goodluckomens #bestwishestoall #happyweekahead (at My Power Now) https://www.instagram.com/p/CD983F0nUmp/?igshid=s6zk4ueufklx

Story Time

THE EXPERIMENT

A group of scientists placed 5 monkeys in a cage, and in the middle, a ladder with bananas on top.

Every time a monkey climbed up the ladder, the scientists soaked the rest of the monkeys with cold water.

It didn't take long for the monkeys to catch on. After a while EVERY time a monkey started to climb the ladder, the other monkeys would beat up the one on the ladder to avoid the cold shower.

After some time no monkey dare to go up the ladder regardless of the temptation, the punishment was too severe.

At this point the scientists decided to substitute one of the monkeys with another one. The FIRST thing this new monkey did was start to climb the ladder, immediately the other monkeys pulled him down and beat him up.

After several beatings the new member learned not to climb the ladder even though he never knew why.

Next a second monkey was substituted and the same process occurred. The (new) first monkey even participated in beating up the (new) second monkey. A third monkey was changed and the same thing repeated. The fourth was substituted and the beatings continued and then finally the fifth was replaced.

What was left in the cage was a group of 5 monkeys that even though had never received a cold shower, continued to beat up any monkey who attempted to climb the ladder!

Now if it were possible to ask these monkey’s why they would beat up those who tried to climb the ladder, I bet their answer would be, “I don’t know. That’s just the way things are done around here.” Now does this sound familiar to you??? 

Often in life we carry on traditions and ways of thinking without even knowing why we are inclined to act this way, citing that it’s just the way that things have always been. However, just because that’s the way things have always been, it doesn't necessarily mean that its the right, right? So I encourage you to ask yourself, why do you do what you do? Would you continue to do the same if you knew of a different/better way?

And if you found this story interesting, don’t hesitate to share this with others as they too might be asking themselves why we continue to do what we are doing the way we are doing them if there is a different way out there...
