We really need to be conscious on how we use our words, even saying a little negative words can change your thoughts entirely. There are words you should never say to yourself.
Words like,
I'm broke,
I have problems,
I have issues,
I made a mistakes
Should be replaced by positive ones such as,
I'm expecting money,
I just have a challenge,
it is just a hurdle,
it was an oversight .
Your words will reflect whether you are optimistic or anxious over the future. Try your best to remove all negative words from your conversations, use only the positive ones carefully, don't use words to talk down on yourself it has effect.
Some of the words that we use will always create room for negative thoughts and intentions. Imagine having a good conversation and at the end use the word 'but', imagine the impact it will cause to the person you are talking to.
'But' has be proven to be one the most negative word used in English, it just changes a conversation entirely. Instead of using 'but' I recommend you use 'however', it feels more good to hear that.
Another word that portrays negativity is 'No'. Even though we cannot say yes every time, we must know how to say the word 'no' with without creating any negative thoughts. The best way to say no to someone, is by listening to them attentively and sincerely, then at the end you can use words like 'maybe later', 'it is not available now' and other words similar to that, you are still saying the same thing, this time you are saying the 'no' in a positive way.
You must know how to use words properly so you don't live people with negative impression, or feeling of rejection after they finish having a conversation with you. If you want to say no to someone, there are better ways to say it so you don't create enemies for yourself, you must be sensitive in using words that bring rejection thought to others, learn how to stand your ground without hurting anyone.
Words are very powerful, use it well.
