10 Great Ideas to Reverse the Negativity in Your Family

November 12, 2015 by Tom Davis 3 Comments

Ok everyone – for this, I NEED YOUR HELP.

My wife had a great idea this morning. She said, “Wouldn’t it be great if we could gather the TOP 10 best ideas people use in their families to reduce negativity.” I thought it was brilliant. That woman’s intuition thing. 🙂 Photo-BIRDCAGE

You know, that kind of environment where you can’t get your kids to stop arguing – or your spouse is getting on your nerves so bad you want to explode – or you wake up on the wrong side of the bed and have to deal with yourself before you face your family. (This happens to me more times than I would like to admit. My neuro-chemicals must be off) These real world issues are what Positive Psychology helps to solve.

So here’s the skinny – from research I know you need 3 positive things to occur in order to make up for 1 negative [Read more…] about 10 Great Ideas to Reverse the Negativity in Your Family

Why Hard Things Can Be the Most Positive Things In Life

November 10, 2015 by Tom Davis 6 Comments

I started studying Positivity because of the problem I have with negativity. Notice I said, “have” not “had.” I’m a work in progress.

It’s rooted in many things: being a child of divorced parents, abuse, starting in a new school every year, and feeling like a complete loser most of my life – I could go on and on.IMG_8599

Those things are certainly negative. But one of the most positive things I ever did was to begin the journey of facing the pain and rejection of my childhood. I needed to accept responsibility for my life and work through my issues in the present so I could have the kind of future I desired. It helped the healing process begin and helped me grow. It was painful, it was hard, but it was incredibly positive. [Read more…] about Why Hard Things Can Be the Most Positive Things In Life

What is Positivity?

October 21, 2015 by Tom Davis 3 Comments

Life can deal us some tremendously negative blows. Think about how many times you have to overcome discouragement – even in a single day. Your child didn’t make the top soccer team, that promotion didn’t come through, you discovered that someone you thought a friend is gossiping behind your back, you just have zero motivation to get on with your day. The list goes on and on.

photo-MountainManReflectionMany research studies show that the best way to overcome discouragement and disappointment is to live a life of Positivity. This is not pop-psychology or guess work. It is live-able truth confirmed by scientific research. But what exactly is it? Positivity is a derivative of the Positive Psychology movement – a scientific study about what makes life worth living. And it’s been the focus of my Doctorate for the past 5 years. [Read more…] about What is Positivity?

How Positivity Rewires Your Brain

September 20, 2015 by Tom Davis 3 Comments

There’s a reason I’m focusing my Doctorate on Positivity. It has the power to rewire your brain.

balancing rocksAccording to a recent psychological article, “new scientific research on neuroplasticity (experience-dependent change in the neural circuitry of emotions) suggests that positive emotional states may trigger lasting, durable changes in the structure and function of the brain.”

Here’s what this study means: if you are a negative person – in your thoughts, words or actions – it has a tremendous impact on how you think, how your brain functions, and even your health. Conversely, if you can learn to be a positive person – in your thoughts, words, or actions – it can work wonders for your brain, how people treat you, your ability to accomplish your dreams and goals, and your health – just to name a few benefits.

Negativity Can Destroy Everything You Care About

August 22, 2015 by Tom Davis 2 Comments

Negativity is a constant struggle for every human being on planet earth, and it’s taken over almost every area of our lives.

GoodAdvice.picTurn on the TV – is it positive or negative? When you listen to conversations at coffee shops, it’s typically about how someone screwed another person over. Social media thrives on bad news.

Negativity is at work when we judge someone else for doing too much of something or too little of something. Its tentacles squeeze their prey and create is stress at home and work. It sneaks its way into conversations and sinks its teeth in every time we throw someone else under the bus and criticize their actions – always from our “high” perch. It’s a plague that has infected us all, and it has a profound impact on how we are perceived as leaders and how we feel internally as human beings.
