Let Bad Thoughts and People Go Bye

Welcome to the Soul of Innovation podcast. I am Thomas Anglero, and life will throw things at you that you absolutely don't want. You're going to be hit with health situations, family situations, love situations, confidence situations where you will question your own confidence in who you are, what you are, how do you exist. These are moments that are normal. This is part of life. The key is how do you respond to it. Just a few moments ago, I was doing some morning stretches and exercises, and thoughts came into my mind that weren't positive. And what I did was I let it flow through my mind, meaning I didn't dwell on it. I just said to myself, these are thoughts that are passing through. It's sort of like when you're stopping at a street corner and a car goes by or a bus goes by or a bunch of— a group of people or a person go by and they have an interesting color hat, or the car is playing loud music, or the people on the bus is a very crowded bus with different colored people with different color clothes. It's just going by. It's not a part of you. You experienced it. But it's just going by. It's the same thing with any thought, any negativity that comes into your mind, which happens all the time. It's just going by. It's not who you are. What most of us do is we have these thoughts that we don't like and we dwell on it and we play the thought back over and over again. And now instead of that thought just going by and you continuing with your amazing beauty life, you thinking of your life as beautiful, you are spinning in a track that's not even your own song. Let negativity go by. Let negative people and their comments go by. When a negative person says something to you that is meant to hurt you, or that you think hurts you, think one thing. That's a reflection of them. That's not a reflection of you. The key to your happiness, the true key, is to let everything go by. Don't let anything settle inside of you unless you want it to. Things get trapped, but then let it go. Thoughts get trapped. Let it go. Bad people you choose to be with get trapped in your life. Let them go. Let go of a bad job. Let go of a bad relationship. Let go of a bad marriage. Let go of a bad moment. Just get up and walk away. Sometimes we think it's impolite right now if I just got up and left. You're worried about hurting someone else's feelings. Think about it. It's more impolite to you. You're selling yourself out. You're cutting yourself short. You're disrespecting who you are just so you're not impolite to someone else. Prioritize yourself, protect yourself, love yourself, but be nice to people. Go forth and spread beauty and light. I'm just reminding you of what you already know, but I think these are lessons that are important to be repeated because we forget so much with all the noise out there, with all the social media, the TV. I was going to say the radio, but I don't think anybody listens to the radio anymore like we used to. But with all the distractions, let those distractions go by and only let the things that you love, that you appreciate, and that appreciate you stay within you. This simple mindset will make your life so much more happier. You'll attract more people that you want to be with, and you'll attract events in your near future and far future that reflect who you are. I'm Thomas Anglero. Simple words. But words to live by. I love you. Until next time.
