What drives someone to seek a life without alcohol? The latest episode of The Next Right STEPS podcast, 'Moving From Positive Thinking to Positive Living,' offers a deep dive into transforming fleeting positive thoughts into a sustainable, joyful lifestyle. The episode kicks off with a discussion on the pitfalls of negative thinking, or 'automatic negative thoughts' as coined by Dr. Daniel Amen.
These pesky 'ants' can wreak havoc on our emotional well-being, but fear not, there's a way to squash them. Listeners are introduced to the three-step process of pause, evaluate, and choose, which is touted as a simple yet transformative method for fostering positive thinking. But it doesn't stop there. The episode unfolds to reveal how managing priorities, time, and resources can lead to a more efficient and fulfilling life.
With light humour and relatable anecdotes, the host explains how positive planning and scheduling can turn dreams into actionable goals. Imagine setting aside time each day for what truly matters and sticking to it—sounds like a game-changer, right? The conversation also touches on the concept of positive believing and spending, encouraging listeners to view their skills, relationships, and even money as assets to be wisely invested.
It's about taking life one step at a time, making thoughtful choices, and living in the present without being shackled by past mistakes. As Albert Einstein famously said, 'Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting different results.' This episode is your invitation to break free from that cycle. So, if you're ready to trade in those pesky 'ants' for a life brimming with positivity and purpose, this episode is a must-listen.
