       To get a sample of what I am talking about, I would say to those who suffer from a negative mindset to just spend one evening, when you drive home from work, at just focusing on the present. When a thought comes to your mind about anything outside of the present, just cast it down. Don’t think about it. And trust me, many thoughts will come! Just try on your drive home to only focus on the present. If you are able to pull it off, and I’m sure many of you will be, you will find that you have gained a substantial amount of rest. Your brain will feel so at rest that you’ll realize how much you’ve been overworking it by considering thoughts of worry and fear. Then once you realize you have a problem, you can work with God on correcting the problem. The Bible tells us that God will help us to grow and bring us to completion (see Philippians 1:6). You see, God wants to help people overcome negativism. You shouldn’t feel that God doesn’t want to help you. He wants us to go to him in prayer and discuss these things with him. He loves us; we are his children.
