Okay, ‘fess up! Who hates a member of their family? Who has an ex-lover or an ex-spouse that they would gladly see go before the firing squad? Who has a co-worker that they want to see working for a competitor just to get them out of your hair? Who has a neighbor that they wish would show up on the back of a milk carton?
If you identified with one or more of the examples above, or if you have someone else in your life who rubs you the wrong way, then congratulations – you are part of the “moral majority”.
But you can remove the negativity that each of those people brings to your life, and you can do it right now.
How? By realizing that when you talk about how someone affects you, you are actually talking about your feelings, not theirs.
Whether or not the level of dysfunction in your family has reached epic proportions, it is your reaction to them that matters.
Even if your ex-love interest is well-deserving of every disparaging comment that you can make about them, it is your feelings that are causing your thoughts of that person to be negative or positive.
If your co-workers are actual demons who have manifested on earth just to torture you, it is you who decides whether or not that torture is successful.
Even if your nosy neighbor with the obnoxious dog and the 10,000 watt stereo is trampling all over your civil rights, it is you who is allowing those things to get under your skin.
Do you see a pattern developing here? YOUR reaction. YOUR feelings. YOUR decision. YOUR allowing.
The simple truth of the matter is that NO ONE, and I mean no one, can control what goes on inside your head! No one can control what emotions you experience! No one can control whether you are happy, sad, mad, or glad!
If no one else can control these things, who do you think IS in charge of your reaction to these people? Of course, the answer is you!
So what does any of this have to do with self improvement, positive thinking, or the Law of Attraction? Well, it goes back to the fact that we are all made up of vibrating energy.
Whenever we feel an emotion – any emotion – we vibrate in a high frequency (good), or we vibrate in a low frequency (bad). Plug those vibrations into the very simple definition of the Law of Attraction – “like attracts like” – and you will start to see an opportunity to either create a positive future for yourself, or to doom yourself to misery.
Whenever someone invokes a negative reaction in us – no matter how justified that reaction may seem – it is absolutely imperative that you remember that you are the magnet. What that means is that if you experience a negative emotion, then the Law of Attraction – which is always on – will immediately start to attract more negative energy to you.
Remember, you are the magnet, not the other person. No matter how much you “perceive” that someone has done something bad, your perception is all that you are experiencing. From their point of view, they may not even be in the wrong!
Not to worry, though. If they are experiencing any negative emotion as a result of their behavior, they will ultimately get their just rewards from the Law of Attraction, just like you will.
So, going back to your perception of this person or this situation. Whether or not your perception is correct or incorrect is completely irrelevant! The only thing that matters is how your perception makes you FEEL.
If you will attract negative energy by having a negative reaction, and that negative energy will manifest itself by making something unpleasant come into your life, what do you think will happen if you have a positive reaction?
Positive energy will be attracted directly to you (the magnet), and that positive energy will manifest itself as something pleasant that will happen to you.
Here’s the Bonus Tip: You can do this ALL the time!
Remember, the Law of Attraction is always on. Whether you understand it or not, or if you even believe in it or not, it is constantly affecting your life. It is always working anytime that you are experiencing any emotion, which is pretty much all the time, right?
You may not be constantly jumping for joy, or you may not be in a constant depressed state, either, but your emotions are “running” pretty much any time that you are conscious. If your emotions always attract energy that matches up with whether or not those emotions are positive or negative, then it stands to reason that you want your emotions to be positive as often as possible.
A hard thing to do with some of the relatives, ex’s, co-workers, and neighbors that we all have in our lives, right?
Actually, it is much easier to do than you might think. In fact, when you practice it, you will almost immediately start to see and feel the results. Everytime you successfully avoid a negative reaction or a negative situation, you have successfully “dodged a bullet”.
After practicing this bullet dodging technique for awhile, you get very good at it! In fact, you start to look forward to the opportunity! As you learn more and more about how to have positive reactions to perceived negative people or to perceived negative situations, you will start to see more and more ways that you can do this.
Ultimately, you may even help some other people to do the same. In a giant leap of faith, I want you to imagine for one minute what it would be like if everyone in your family became infected with your positive attitude and your positive approach to life:
- Think what it would be like if your Ex called up and offered to do something nice for you.
- Imagine what a day at your office would be like if no one was stressed out, angry, frustrated, or troublesome.
- Think of coming home one day to find out that your neighbor sold his stereo, traded his dog for a cat, and took up meditating during the time when he was normally all up in your business.
Sound like a fantasy? Believe it or not, when you attract enough positive energy into your life, it MUST manifest into something positive.
However, if you continue to bring in negative energy, that energy must also take some form equal to it’s negative vibration.
So, is it possible to never have a negative reaction to the people or circumstances in your life?
Possible? Yes! Difficult? Also yes. However, the ball is in your court. Remember, it is your reaction that determines whether or not a person has a positive or negative effect on you.
It doesn’t have a thing to do with them!
Aaron:
I found this article through one of your “flashback” posts where you outlined past articles that are buried deep in your archives. I picked this topic because no one is immune from meeting people that you don’t exactly like.
It reminded me of what happened many years ago about this boss I used to have while working on Wall Street. He positively hated my guts for whatever reason and tried to make life miserable for me. Through the grace of God, I found Norman Vincent Peale’s book, “The Power of Positive Thinking” and it shook my world.
Thanks to Peale’s book, I began to take control of my emotions, my feelings, my thoughts and completely turned it around. One year later this nasty boss actually promoted me! Would you believe that? Yes, sir, it’s true. You can read about it here: https://adversityuniversity.blogspot.com/2006/07/harry-bank-boss.html
Thanks for reminding us that it’s YOU who controls your thoughts. It’s like what Eleanor Roosvelt once said about how no one can make you feel in a certain way unless you let them.
Stephen,
I’m glad you found this post through the Way Back Machine. That was an idea inspired by Darren at Problogger.net and I am ecstatic about it. Why keep past writing buried in the archives?
As far as positive thinking, it is AMAZING how powerful it is. As you said, everyone is going to run into people that they don’t like eventually. Being able to control your emotions when you are around those people so that they don’t effect you in a negative way is tantamount to nothing less than self defense! 🙂
Amen to that!

A couple of weeks ago, a colleague of mine sent me an email noted “Important Notice not a joke”. Normally, this would have been sent immediately to my trash bin, but since I actually knew this guy I decided to go ahead and give it a look. Based on his email, he’s seemed to be extremely excited about an opportunity that he considered to be a “gift” from his well-trusted friend (keywords) and naturally he wanted to pass it along to others. So I listened to a 2-minute and a 20-minute recording, curious to see if I would reach that same level of excitement as he did. Well did I? Not so much…
Fast-forward two weeks later…
As I prepared to attend my daughter’s basketball game, I received a phone call. I wasn’t sure who it was, but the number shared the same area code as mine so I answered it. It was him calling from his landline (that explains why his caller ID didn’t show up…smh). I already suspected what he’d might say, so I just prepared myself for the “pitch”.
“Hey, Mike! Did you get my email that I sent to you a couple of weeks ago? What did you think?”
“Different person, different opportunity, but similar pitch.” (Well, this is what I thought to myself anyways)
So I asked him what I typically ask everyone else that presents me with a new opportunity, “What kind of marketing does this company have in place for its distributors?”
The reason I asked him this question is because I find that most companies out there would rather “hype” you into their opportunity rather than actually train you on how to market that business should you decide to join.
Here are a couple of things that I believe many of you will see when searching for Narc That Car Reviews on the internet:
1.People bashing Narc Technologies or any network marketing company for that matter. There are those who will never understand the network marketing industry and would rather dish out all sorts of negative comments regarding the industry. They believe everything is a scam and would rather complain about having no money, yet refuse to take action.
2.People who have built successful organizations in their own companies and have decided to coach others to do the same with various e-books, webinars, etc. It’s not uncommon for them to sponsor people effortlessly into their organization.
3.Narc That Car distributors explaining how great their company is, their exciting compensation plan, or what leaders are a part of their company.
If you have been introduced to Narc Technologies and are considering joining, I’ve taken a look into the company and want to give you an unbiased review and why I personally decided not to join. (…and no I’m not telling you that you shouldn’t join)
What Is Narc Technologies?
Narc Technologies is a Dallas, Texas based company that has been in business since 2005. Ford, Nissan, Toyota, and other finance companies have been getting assistance from Narc Technologies to locate delinquent vehicles from a network of thousands of consultants (being you) who will submit license plate numbers into a national data base.
What Is Required Of A Narc Consultant?
This part seems fairly simple. As a Narc Consultant, it is your responsibility to write down 10 random license plate numbers per month from grocery stores, shopping malls, restaurants, apartment complexes, etc. After the information has been submitted, lien holders will crosscheck their information from their super-confidential “Watch List”. (Ok, I’m reaching a little bit.) Consultants of this company may become offended for me saying this, but it almost seems as if you are being paid to become a snitch.
How Is A Narc Consultant Compensated?
There are 2 primary ways that a consultant can get paid. A commission will be paid every month when ten new license plate numbers are entered or when new consultants are sponsored, management overrides will be received based on their production. I’m not going to go into every little detail of the compensation plan, but you can find the complete comp. plan in pdf. format by clicking here. However, from viewing the comp. plan it seems that you will absolutely need to have a fairly large organization if you are planning on receiving a nice-sized monthly income. Downline attrition combined with the inability to sponsor new reps on a consistent basis will quickly put you out of business if you’re not taking action.
Should You Join Narc That Car?
This is entirely up to you. However, I would advise that you evaluate this company thoroughly and make a smart business decision. Don’t make a silly decision to jump on board just because you attended one of those hotel-hype meetings and got overly excited about the opportunity.
Is Narc Technologies A Legit Business?
You have to wonder if randomly selected license plates from narc consultants will hold any significance to the repo agencies. How do you actually know if they are actually paying for the license plate information that is being entered into the national data base…or is the real cashflow coming from the constant recruiting of people combined with the $24.95 monthly website fee? So, is this company a scam? Well I wouldn’t go that far, but seeing that there isn’t much of a product involved has made me raise an eyebrow. In order to make an substantial income with this company, the emphasis is placed on recruiting rather than the selling of products…and well you be the judge.
Why I
Wouldn’t Join This Company
#1 -I would more than likely never join a company that doesn’t actually show its distributors how to market their opportunity. One thing that a lot of network marketing companies are missing is a duplicatable system in place for its distributors. (Telling anyone with a pulse and getting them to tell anyone with a pulse about your opportunity is NOT a system!) Narc That Car is no different. Systems can be duplicated, people cannot (Just ask McDonald’s). All of that “you get 3 and help them get their 3 and so forth” is out of the window.
#2 – 95% of companies fail in their first 2 years and their Network Marketing Go Live was started in July of 2009 so personally I wouldn’t invest in a company that hasn’t shown me some type of stability. However given their low start-up fee of somewhere in the range of $75-$100, you wouldn’t be losing too much if the company takes a turn for the worse.
Look if you’re a were thinking about joining this company and came across this review, understand that it’s not meant to sway you in either direction. If you join I wish you much success for you and your family. Take out the time to learn how to market effectively and literally explode your Narc Business. If you decide not to join, you already know that there are numerous companies out there that you can join after thorough research.
