How to overcome negative thoughts? Well first, I am sure that most of you have experienced a situation where you are overly excited about a certain goal and that you are willing to do whatever it takes to obtain that certain something, whatever it might be, but the people around you or are close to you seem to be very skeptical and downright non supportive. At first you might say to yourself "they're just over-thinking" but due to the massive amount of hardships you were going through, you eventually decide that they might just be right, right?
WRONG!
Why would you let them convince you of what you are capable of? Why would you let them set a limit to the things that you can accomplish? You were confident enough in yourself that you went ahead with it but sometimes things can get tough, you are bound to face difficulties and hardships, but that does not mean it is not achievable.
I'm not sure if you can relate to this story but I'm just going to believe that you can. There is this one wrestling game called "Hell In A Cell" (I probably got the name wrong, its been decades since I last watched wrestling) where a number of wrestlers are put together within the ring enclosed by a walls of steel. There is only one rule to the game, whichever wrestler that manages to climb the walls and get through to the other side will be the winner. If the wrestler get pulled down while going up the wall, he'll end up back inside the ring with the other wrestlers keep beating each other up.
You see, the game of life is very similar to this one, whenever someone who believes in themselves enough tries to go after success, there are always a bunch of "wrestlers" who will try to pull you back down, back to the "beating each other to the pulp" ring. But really, the key to really win this game is to persevere long enough and keep pushing for the goal, in this case, to get to the other side of the ring.
Convincing yourself that you can do it when there are bullsh*t happening all around you is not an easy task, I have experienced this first hand. But my advice to you is this, get involved with more positive people, get around those who are supportive in your goals. Finding these type of people is easy, if you keep on pushing through, these people will start to emerge and you'll start to realize your true friends.
You'll start to notice that there are actually a lot of people who are ready to be supportive of you. If you believe in yourself enough you'll find a strong reason why you choose to do it and eventually those people who are not supportive will learn to adapt. How to overcome negative thoughts? Simple. Just keep on doing the things that you think is right and never allow yourself to give up.
