The 7C's of Negativity

The backbone of today’s episode is actually from a book called Think Like a Monk by Jay Shetty. This book is a really good read and I’d really recommend it to anyone who’s interested. Welcome to my podcast, Within 5 Minutes. This is Harsh Patel bringing the 11th episode of this series The 7C's of Negativity. Negativity is everywhere. No one wakes up thinking that they are going to spoil another person's day. It comes from within, sometimes consciously, sometimes unconsciously. Have you ever thought to yourself, why is it that bad news draws more attention than good news? Or why criticism has a greater impact than compliments? The 7C’s of negativity are different clusters of negative people we find around us. Complainers, Cancellers, Casualties, Critics, Commanders, Competitors, and Controllers. A fun exercise could be for you to identify and place your friends into these categories and determine what kind of negative impact do they have in your life. Instead of judging these negative behaviors, we should be trying to neutralize them or turn them into positives. Neutralizing people from each of these categories involves a little indifferent attitude as most people who radiate negativity, do not do so purposely.
