7.13.21 How to Weed out your Negative Thoughts_NC_8PM + NO IU UPSELL

It’s a bright, warm, sunny Saturday morning and I’m ready for one of my favorite hobbies, gardening.I’ve got my plants, compost, mulch, shovel, water, fertilizer, and green thumb ready to dig some holes and plant some greenery. I kiss my wife and head out into the morning light, ready to have some fun with nature. First, I just need to pull some weeds to clear out the area. Hmm, maybe some vines, too. Ah, some poison ivy, oh and dig out a small stump or two, and those pricker bushes gotta go.Before you know it, my happy little project has become a sweaty, scratchy, laborious task. My "whistle while you work" has become a "grumble while you stumble."My thoughts shift from the task at hand to angry discussions in my head with my wife about how she doesn’t understand how much work this is, it’s not just digging holes and tossing in the plants. This is hard work!I am not having fun and my lower self has taken over. I’m complaining more in my head than paying attention to what I am doing, leading to even more scratches and stumbles.At this moment my hot wife walks over to heated me with a smile, “How’s it going, babe?”I unleash all the negative conversation I had in my head onto her. “Ugh…I haven’t planted a freakin thing. I’ve been pulling out these freakin weeds and vines and prickers for the past 2 hours. You don’t get it. This is hard freakin work. It ain’t just digging holes and dropping in plants and poof,  an instant magic garden. It’s hard f*cking work.”I was stressed, annoyed, hot, sweaty, scratched, buggy, and by no means having fun. The prickliest bush here was me.I was not only knee deep in weeds, I was knee deep in my "Doomsing Victim" trait.Doomsing Victim? Yes, this is a trait I have that, when any little thing goes wrong, suddenly everything in the universe is wrong and conspiring against me. And it’s always been wrong and always will be wrong.Learn about your traits in Module 5 of Inner.U LIFE! This module will help you identify the traits you got from your parents and how to either put them on a leash or leverage them for success. Login & listen. It’s no fun, and I’m no fun to be around. I’m focused on hating everything and everyone rather than what I am supposed to be doing. Not only is it no fun, it leads me farther and farther away from what I really want.After I angrily explain all that is wrong and how hard the work is, she says she thought I liked to garden, and isn’t this all part of gardening? Isn’t the point to have fun...?
