                    This  world  is  not  perfect.  Even          THINK  OF  OTHER  PEOPLE
                    something  as  beautiful  as  a  rose         WHO       HAVE       DONE       THIS
                    comes with prickles. With every good          BEFORE.
                    thing  that  God  has created,  comes a

                    this  world,  we  have  to  learn  how  to
                    protect ourselves and deal with it.
                    “Negativity”  has  always  been  a
                    threat  to  humanity.  Just  a  single
                    negative thought is enough to  ruin a
                    relationship,  an  opportunity,  and
                    whatnot.  Whenever  we  are  about  to
                    do  something  new,  we  always  think
                    about  what  bad  can  happen  to  us.
                    Analyzing the situation before  taking
                    any  steps  is  good,  but  we  should
                    know  how  to  not  let  it  hamper  our      This  is  simple.  For  instance,  you  are
                    growth  and  stop  us  from  achieving        too scared to go bungee jumping, just
                    something.                                    think  of  the  people  who  have
                    Here are a few ways in which you can          performed it before. If they can do it
                    control  your  negative  thoughts  and        AND SURVIVE IT, so can you.
                    save  yourself  from  becoming  their         So,  forget  all  your  fears  and  do  that
                    slave.                                        task.  Take  necessary  precautions  but
                                                                  never leave it in the middle. A slight
                                                                  fear should not stop you from having

                    This  may  sound  stupid,  but  it  helps.
                    Your  thoughts  get  untangled  when
                    you  write  them  down  and  then  read       NEVER                           FEAR
                    them  out  loud.  This  will  help  you       EMBARRASSMENT :
