Stop the negativity

ist2_6306818-angry-woman Studies show that dwelling on negative thoughts magnifies their power in your mind. Shush the negative voices in your head, you know the ones, the if only, the what were you thinking, should have said, should have done, what am I going to do, blah, blah, blah. Give them a name if you want to – I call mine “The *itch,” but you could be kinder and call it “Naggy Nancy,” or “Whiney Wendy.” Give it a try, what have you got to lose?

On a serious note, some in the medical field suggest that this is a key reason that more women suffer depression than men. Women are more likely to “overthink,” while men are better at distracting themselves from negative thoughts. So this once, act like a man and ignore it!
