By way of the ultimate rule of positive energy, we get some insight to the conundrum of dealing with negative people that aren't going to get rid of. For me, if you take nothing else from this book, take this rule to heart:
Your positive energy and vision must be greater than anyone's and everyone's negativity. Your certainty must be greater than everyone's doubt.
Joy herself says this rule is so important that it is separate from the Ten Rules. Do your best to heed this mantra as you deal with life's energy vampires.
I feel the book was enjoyable for various reasons, but mainly because of the quotes like the one above. Whenever I'm in a bad mood, positive quotes are definitely my kryptonite. I find it difficult to read the above statement and not feel re-energized about accomplishing my goals!
ReplyDeleteIt is definitely a true statement. If you don't believe in yourself, you are easily sucked into other's negativity. It is a constant battle and it takes practice. As I am learning how to make it a habit, I need many reminders to stay positive.
