FAST OR FLOP AT FORTY: EXPERIENCING MUSCLE STRAIN AND FALL INTO THE
NEGATIVE SIDE OF IT

Not Being Happy for Others

With a negative attitude, you will not feel happiness for anyone else because of your
own insecurities and perceive yourself as weak or inferior and see other people as a
threat. Instead of celebrating others' success, you may only feel jealousy and envy
toward them. For example, you may feel jealous someone who has won a contest or
earned a reward for an achievement.

Seeing the Negative Side of Everything

You may see the negatives first in every situation. You may complain about the
negatives about a topic or situation, rather than find something positive to say. You may
also be preoccupied with a fear that something bad may happen, which will stop you
from enjoying a positive moment. This will cause others to see you as a gloomy and
depressing person whose negativity may wear on them.

Insulting Remarks

You may have resentment and anger, which will cause you to lash out at others. If you
find yourself regularly making insulting or derogatory remarks to others, this may
indicate that you have a bad attitude. You may hurt someone's feelings and cause her
to become shy or uncomfortable around you. As a result of your behavior, people with
whom you associate will not want to be around you, especially those who always doing
activities (cycling, competitive sports, etc.) together with you.
Sympathy

You will notice that other people will see you as sad or depressed because of your
negativity and will try to say things to cheer you up. They will usually do this if they
begin to notice that your conversations are mostly complaints about your problems.
However, if they notice that you have the same attitude over an indefinite period of time,
they will give up on these efforts.
