I used to be very vocal about what I perceived to be people and organisations who messed me around.
I found that I spent a lot of my time angry and would voice my thoughts regularly.
I read on here about the failings of the Fed and formed an opinion about them that was mostly negative.
I spent 5 years screaming at my windscreen for slow drivers to get out of my way. I could go on.
The reality of negativity in your life is that it will only affect you and those that you come into contact with.
One day you may just need some one or something that is linked to the company that you have wished ill on.
I know need to be a member of the Fed and am joining - the use is not obvious but the necessity is there.
Somebody you speak to about Little Chef may be sitting in a room one day that you take a quote into and they may remember your negativity.
I am not perfect but I do my best to show a positive outlook and I strongly believe that what you put out you will get back.
If you display negativity you will get it back.
If you show a positive attitude at all times then you can never be caught out and people will notice that you are different.
I never want to show people how I feel, if I find myself in a negative situation, I go out of my way to accept that the doorway closed and I move on building positive allegiances.
I lost a contract to clean 85 HGVs twice per year, we had cleaned them succesfully for two years running.
I would go back and clean for the company tomorrow, its just business.
