Signs You Are A Negative Nancy

If an individual doesn't take the time to take note of their shortcomings, it is easy for them to keep making the same mistakes repeatedly.

Thus, it is possible you might be a negative Nancy without realizing it. Take a look at these serious warning signs as indicators you need to change your ways.

You Are Always Worrying

An individual who is naturally negative tends to worry a lot. They might not even realize they are always worrying, which means it's second nature to them.

Take a look at your thoughts. Are you constantly thinking about the future and what's going to happen? If you are constantly thinking about everything that could go wrong, you are a habitual worrier, which is a mindset you'll need to shift. The brain creates muscle memory. When it's not occupied with a specific task, it will go back to the most comfortable or familiar thought. Instead of dwelling on everything that could go wrong, focus on the immediate moment. The present is a gift, one you do not want to miss out on. If you plan correctly, you don't need to worry about the future, and all you need to do is focus on the present. Sit down and do a brain dump. Write out all the things you need to remember and the things you're concerned about. Create a plan and a schedule. Once you do this, focus on the moment in front of you. The rest will sort itself out.
