Today I decided to change the name from #negativethinkersanonymous to #redpillanonymous 1) I want the name to be based on the goal, not the challenge to overcome. 2) I want to incorporate the question: “Did you try the red pill?”

Negative thinkers crave negative thoughts. Positive thoughts are repelled because they feel unnatural, which to negative thinkers, they are.

I didn’t plan today, but I did start reading. I highlighted “…sanctuary of your mind…” It led me down a path to this:

#negativethinkersanonymous is for those who desire for their mind to be a sanctuary- a place of refuge, a safe & peaceful place…

I’m starting Negative Thinkers Anonymous. The idea has been on my mind for years. But today it took complete hold of my mind. I’ve been reading, writing, researching and brainstorming all morning. I will build in public. #negativethinkersanonymous #buildinpublic #Build #building

Negative Thinkers Anonymous is highly influenced by AA and its 12 Step Program. I started reading the book today, which I purchased through Amazon in Dec 2020 when I first had the idea to create #negativethinkersanonymous #buildinpublic #build #building

Just ordered this book to help influence the 12 step program for #negativethinkersanonymous

Also ordered some highlighters and sticky notecards to help with the research and design process.

Just purchased the domain for #negativethinkersanonymous !!! It’s getting realer and realer.

I’m roughly drafting ideas about characteristics of those who could benefit from being a member of #negativethinkersanonymous

For example, those who are more comfortable hoping for the best yet expecting the worse.

#negativethinkersanonymous is perfect for those who think odds are rarely in their favor. #Build #buildinpublic #Building

#negativethinkersanonymous is perfect for those who routinely watch their local news station to stay informed about their community and the world at large.

#negativethinkersanonymous is perfect for those who spend little to no time enjoying the outdoors. #Build #buildinpublic

#negativethinkersanonymous is perfect for people who roll their eyes at quotes like this….

#negativethinkersanonymous will be a safe haven for people to socialize with other negative thinkers who have solid intentions to improve their outlook on life.

#negativethinkersanonymous will have sponsors and chips that mimic and embrace some of the tangible accomplishments that are earned in Alcoholics Anonymous. “Who knew how fun and rewarding thinking positive could be?”

I think watching the local news and giving it a negativity score might be an example activity that members will do as part of the program.

I would love for the first location for #negativethinkersanonymous members to meet be somewhere in nature or a surrounded by nature. Grass, trees, shrubs, sky with big open windows. I want the environment to make it harder to think negatively. #buildinpublic #Build

Got my supplies delivered today. Now I can start planning my sprints for the #negativethinkersanonymous program.

I have another excel project I’m wrapping up today, so sprint planning for this project will start tomorrow.

People who self identify as “pessimistic”may find value in becoming a member of #negativethinkersanonymous, if they have a desire to change that.
