Prove It Series: Week 3 - Cut It Out!

Beautiful things happen when you distance yourself from the negativity.  ~Unknown

Welcome to the January edition of the Straight Up Mindset Blog. This months series is called the Prove It Series. First weeks topic was over Accountability, last weeks topic was over Build Your Circle, and this weeks topic is Cut it out!!


There are 3 things that you have to cut out of your life in order to reach your milestones.  If you cut out these 3 things, you are well on your way to making your dreams and your goals a reality and living a Positive life.

The first thing is Negative talk.  Life and death is in the tongue, if you talk negative, you will bring negative to your life.  You have to speak life into your situation, speak life into your dreams, speak life into your relationships.  I have found out in my life, that the biggest enemy I had to deal with was and is myself.  I read an old African Proverb that says, "If there is no enemy within, the enemy outside can do us no harm."  So as you look forward to redefining who you are, I need you to ask yourself, who am I right now?  Who do I want to become? And what do I need to change about myself to get where I'm going?  I promise you, it starts with what comes out of your mouth. Cut Out the negative talk about yourself and about others and you will create a new and beautiful future, not only for you, but the people around you.

Secondly, I need you to Cut Out the Negative Thoughts.  As you begin to look at your future, where you want to go, what you want to be, and what you have to leave behind?  What no longer fits in God's plan for your life.  Those Negative thoughts that you have about yourself, they have to go.  You are Great, You are Amazing, and you are Somebody.  Stop thinking that you are not and believe that you are.  If you want to keep getting what your getting, keep thinking those Negative thoughts about yourself.  See I believe that in life we "WILL" Negative things in our lives, because if we are speaking Negative and thinking Negative, well guess what your going to get, NEGATIVE!!  So lets start thinking positive thoughts about who we want to be, where we want to go, and all the goals we have set out for our life.  Every morning when you wake up, Speak Positive, Think Positive, and Be Positive if you want a Positive outcome.

Last thing I need you to Cut out, is Negative People.  You are the director of your life.  Your friends and even your family members are actors and actresses in your movie.  If they are not there to help you reach new heights in your life, to support you in all of your dreams and goals, no matter how crazy they may seem, you can Cut them out.  Negative people, if you let them they will tear down your life.  When people try and tell you that your crazy if you believe you will own your own business, your insane if you think you will travel the world, or you are outside your mind if you think that you can change the world, ignore them and keep grinding.  Stay focused on what you have been called to do, because if you let people's Negative talk sneak into your mind and you start believing it, you will miss out on your blessings.  So do me a huge favor, If they don't encourage you, cut them out, if they don't motivate you, cut them out, and if they talk Negative, think Negative, and are Negative, cut them out.  You are going places, you are destined for Greatness, so surround yourself around Positive, motivated, and Great People.

This week is the week to start living a Positive Life.  Starting today, cut out Negative Talk, Negative Thoughts, and Negative People.  If you do this, I promise you like the quote at the top says, Beautiful things will start to happen.
