Let's do this!

I've decided to give up negativity for 40 days. I am choosing to live outside of complaining and negative thoughts, conversation, etc. I recently realized just how critical I can be sometimes and how often I claim defeat before I even reach the starting line. More often than not, I find myself regretting something I said or thinking to myself, "where did that come from?", as I swallow the awkwardness and try to move on. I believe God has so much more for me if I'd only trust him and choose the joy I so easily pass up every day. I know this is going to be a difficult task and I won't quit if I slip up, I will only try harder to be more aware of these things.


I've decided to blog about this in case there's anyone else out there that might struggle with the plague of negativity like I do. I hope this encourages you. I anticipate challenging moments and glorious revelations. My hope is that I will come out of this with a renewed sense of faith and joy. I don't want to be the nay-sayer. I don't want to be the negative person no one wants to talk to. I want to give life. I want to speak life. I want to be freed from the plague of negativity.


Ready.


Set.


Go!
