Who’s The Boss 10 Ways To Start Taking Control

Positive thinking and Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) appear to have nothing to do with one another at first appearance. However, many of us with ADD acquire negative thought habits due to our frustrations and frequent feelings of overwhelm. This pessimistic view makes it even more difficult for us to deal with the problems and move on.

Positive thinking encourages persons with ADD to concentrate on their strengths and accomplishments, increasing satisfaction and motivation. As a result, we will have more free time. Progressing and less time feeling depressed and trapped. The following strategies are realistic and can be used to help you transition into more optimistic thought patterns:

 

1: Take Care of Yourself First

It’s simpler to stay cheerful when you eat healthily, exercise regularly, and get adequate sleep.

2: Remind yourself of what you’re thankful for?

Stress and obstacles don’t seem as unpleasant when you’ve continually reminded yourself of the good things in life. It will make a significant impact if you take only 60 seconds a day to appreciate the good things in your life.

 

3: Instead of making assumptions, look for proof.

Fear of not being liked or accepted might drive us to believe that we know what other people think, although this rarely happens. If you suspect a friend or family member’s low mood is caused by something,

 

4: Avoid using absolutes as much as possible.

Have you ever said to your partner, “You’re always late!” or to a friend, “You never call me!”? Absolutes like ‘always’ and ‘never’ make the issue appear worse, and they train your brain to believe that certain people are incapable of delivering.

 

5: Separate yourself from negative thoughts

If you don’t evaluate your thoughts, they won’t influence you. If you catch yourself thinking something terrible, detach from it, observe it, and don’t follow it.

 

6:  Squash the “ANTs” In his book

“Change Your Brain, Change Your Life,” he explains how to “squash the ANTs.” “ANTs” – Automatic Negative Thoughts – are discussed by Dr. Daniel Amen. These are the negative thoughts that are frequently reactionary, such as “Those folks are laughing, they’re laughing, they’re laughing.

 

7:  Work on your lovin’, touching, and squeezin’ skills (Your Friends and Family)

You don’t need to be an expert to recognize the advantages of a friendly embrace. Positive physical contact with friends, family, and even pets is a natural mood booster. In one experiment, a waitress touched the arm of some of her customers as she delivered them their checks. These clients gave her more money in tips than those she didn’t feel!

 

8: Boost Your Social Activities

Loneliness is reduced by increased social activities. If you surround yourself with healthy, happy individuals, their tremendous energy will rub off on you!

 

9: Help another person or volunteer for an organization.

Everyone feels happy after assisting others. You can provide your time, money, or resources as a volunteer. You will receive more positive energy if you put out more positive energy into the globe.

 

10: To combat rumination, use pattern interrupts.

If you find yourself ruminating, interrupting the pattern and forcing yourself to do something completely different is a terrific quitting method. Rumination is the act of focusing excessively on something undesirable. It’s never productive because it’s not logical or solution-oriented; it’s just a lot of stress. Go for a walk or sit outside to change your physical environment. You may also make a phone call, read a book, or listen to music.

 

When it comes to the business world, etiquette is almost a religion. Knowing what needs to be done is the foundation of productivity, but interaction and maintaining a steady mind round out the package. Some appear to function well under duress, but they are the exception, and we are all human and fallible. Getting under our skin over minor issues such as stress will not fix our problems. It takes more courage to accept that we’re becoming workaholics than it does to tell ourselves that we’re not doing our best.
