Boy, have I been in a mood the last few weeks. Lots of negativity creeping in, lots of filtering things out and weighing them.

Everything seems to be going down the drain (not personally) and I keep yelling at the clouds. Becoming an old man earlier than expected isn't working out so far.

Daily Inspiration: "If you keep waiting around for bad things to happen you'll never be ready when good things happen!" - Futurist Jim Carroll

Negative people are a downer. They kill innovation; they wreak havoc on momentum; they damage enthusiasm; they slow down initiative. When it comes to an organization trying to move forward, they destroy great ideas. They bring everyone down - not just themselves.

The buzz-kill the buzz of killer concepts.

Negative people are one of the most significant challenges that organizations face when it comes to leadership teams trying to align with the future. If you read my post last Friday - "At what point will you realize you've wasted time waiting for a recession that never happened," you will know the problem has accelerated as a whole bunch of people slid into a mindset that the world right now is all downside, with little upside.

Stop it.

How widespread is negativity? Take a look at the people who surround you, or check your own attitude. It's pretty clear that there are some people who just grab onto negativity and cling to it like a sodden life preserver. As soon as they are triggered by anything, they reach for their negativity. If you praise them, they focus on their flaws; if you suggest a great idea, they'll shoot it down; if you point out a mistake, they can freak out on you.

Is that you?
