“NO NEGATIVE SPEAK” BREAKS THE HABIT OF NEGATIVE TALKING

“Watch your thoughts, they become your words.

Watch your words, they become your actions.

Watch your actions they become habits.

Watch your habits, they become your character.

Watch your character, it becomes your destiny.

WEST OAKLAND STORIES POSITIVE FEELING MOVEMENT BLACK ELDERS HAVE PLAYED A BIG PART IN MAKING IT ACCEPTABLE TO CLAIM BLACK OAKLAND IN A POSITIVE WAY.

We started back in 2013 asking people to say “Oakland is not bad”. From that point we grew into producing the West Oakland Stories Positive film and after that we grew into “No Negative Speak” with each other and from that point we grew into the Non-Profit WOSPFM Organization and now we are beginning to work from the Positive Cosmic Consciousness level.

What is Cosmic Consciousness?

We want you to understand Cosmic Consciousness (CC) to be a state of mind where you actively filter your thoughts through positive emotional currents (NNS) before you engage with other people. This is a technique to provide a greater context for who you are.

How Do I Practice Cosmic Consciousness?

Instead of giving a person or situation the power to make your react from a place of uncertainty, fear, anger, we want you to use your Cosmic Consciousness. NNS and CC are interchangeable. Don’t try to explain NNS, using the words are simply the path to your CC.

1. You carry a lifetime of positivity in you – youare just not aware of it.

2. Remember the big picture – we’re all tasked with being better versions of ourselves over time. Be patient with yourself and others.

TO MANY PEOPLE TELL US WHAT’S WRONG BUT HAVE NO SOLUTIONS

TO MANY PEOPLE TELL US WHAT’S WRONG BUT HAVE NO SOLUTIONS    

We hope that you will take note that the process below we, Oakland Elders, have designed “No Negative Speak” (NNS) to bring Black people together in a positive way, it’s different because we not only tell you we need to become positive with each other and we actually give you a plan, guiding steps, (directions).  We firmly believe if anyone is giving us advice, they should also provide the working details.  Too many people tell us what’s wrong but no solutions.  We believe the simpler solutions provide, the more brilliant the results.

Cosmic Consciousness

The point of this post is to let the world know that Black Oakland Elders of West Oakland Stories Positive Feeling Movement (WOSPFM) have been guiding you into your Positive Cosmic Consciousness when you say the words “No Negative Speak” with each other.  Continue using the words and you will see the positive manifestation of a people that the Slave System made negative.

“NO NEGATIVE SPEAK” (NNS) WITH EACH OTHER IS ESPECIALLY GOOD FOR US DURING THIS COVID-19 PANDEMIC

BLACK ELDERS WISDOM IS MAKING A LOT OF SENSE

We guarantee that if you follow our directions you will grow in a positive direction.

“No Negative Speak” (NNS) with each other is especially good for us during this COVID-19 Pandemic because it keeps the stress level down.  You will feel more relaxed right away as soon as you make the “NNS” commitment to yourself.

West Oakland Stories Positive Feeling Movement Org. (WOSPFM) is giving you instructions that will remove that shield. Just follow the directions and you will experience the shield being removed and you will feel so much better. You can practice what we are teaching, and it does not stop you from whatever you are now doing.

INSTRUCTIONS:

Choose a partner to start you off and you work with each other. See who can keep up with each and keep the pledge of practicing “No Negative Speak” (NNS) when you are talking to each other. When you catch one or the other talking negatively just let them know that you guys are practicing “NNS”.

Choose a partner to start you off and you work with each other. See who can keep up with each and keep the pledge of practicing “No Negative Speak” (NNS) when you are talking to each other. When you catch one or the other talking negatively just let them know that you guys are practicing “NNS”.

Most of us have the time now and we are asking you to say “NO NEGATIVE SPEAK” with each other. “NNS” wakes you up in a positive way if you just say the words. Saying “NNS” makes everyone aware of negativity. Make a game out of this, sing it, talk it and spread it.

“NNS” with each other smooths out that negative attitude that has been embedded in our subconscious by the SLAVE SYSTEM for 400 plus years. When you begin to understand, you will feel compelled to support each other.

The WOS film TRAILER link below was produced so you can see how “NNS” with each other looks and feels In the West Oakland Community.
