When NEGATIVITY Becomes Pervasive
Many think that NEGATIVITY is just another 'fly in the ointment' BUT it's NOT. Factually, let us realize that NEGATIVITY has become so pervasive. It cuts across cultures, social strata and it's all over the place whether you are from the First World OR Third World. And surprisingly, some of us [wrongly] think that a disease OR illness are the reasons for your tired body OR prolonged aches, BUT have you ever thought that thinking NEGATIVELY could be the reason? In fact, various researches resulted in the common conclusion that pervasive pessimism affects more than just our emotional healthIn medical studies, doctors have found that people with high levels of NEGATIVITY are more likely to suffer from degenerative brain diseases, cardiovascular problems, digestive issues, and recover from sickness much slower than those with a POSITIVE MINDSET. So, WHAT causes NEGATIVITY? Generally, studies show that it is a product of INSECURITY or DEPRESSIONStudies also showed that it can stem from illness, life events, personality problems, OR substance abuse. Like many things in life, NEGATIVITY too can [alarmingly] become a habit. Frequent criticism, cynical thoughts, and denial can create "NEURAL PATHWAYS" in the brain that would encourage SADNESS. These NEGATIVE tendencies can cause our brain to distort the TRUTH and make it even more difficult to break the NEGATIVITY❎❎❎BUT here's the GOOD NEWS! Experts claim, or so, that like most habits, we can break this NEGATIVITIES if they are so pervasive till now. HOW?- STOP being CYNICAL
