Looking for Negativity to grow your website or business

so for the past few days now I’ve been very negative well I’ve been looking for negativity within my website my youtube channel and my business in

general so why have I been looking for negativity sounds a bit strange right let’s get into this [Music] Hi and welcome back to the channel again I know this is a bit of an unusual video for me but I’m going to tell you why I spent

the last few days looking for everything negative within my business so let me break down what I mean by negativity so that can be negative feedback could be negative comments it could be poor click-through rate on my articles unopened emails feedback in general from Facebook from my

discord group anything that somebody’s had to say that instantly triggers a reaction from me now like I said it is not just a comment or a nasty email it could be negative things that are happening within your website so maybe your traffic is going down that’s negative maybe people aren’t clicking on a title that you’ve created that’s negative so not just looking at negative

comments and nasty emails or anything like that it can also just be negative effects within your website or your niche website maybe your sales are down maybe your amazon revenue and commissions have dropped all that is negativity but by diving into the negative things that are happening you can

actually, find some positive things to take out from that and improve on how the human brain is focused on ignoring the negativity we’re focused and wired to actually look at positive things so we publish an article that gets a really nice comment on it and we focus on that and yeah we feel really happy

and it elates us and it lifts us and we feel great but then we see the negatives comments all the negative things about it and we push them aside we ignore them and the brain is focused and wired to do that it’s kind of a survival instinct we have now when you see anything negative let’s take for

instance a comment on youtube so I, in the beginning, I still get them now but in the beginning, I got a lot of negative comments about the audio quality of my videos now I’m not in the perfect environment to film so I’m never going

to have perfect audio until I can get a recording studio or a room that’s really built and designed for recording youtube videos so I was always expecting to see some of the negative comments in these videos however some of them were really really justified when I look back on some of the videos how

terrible the one the audio was horrendous and certainly even in the environment I am now could have been improved but I chose for months and months and months to ignore those comments now you’ll know when you have spotted negativity because it triggers three reactions in the human

body and the first reaction you’ll get is one that’s called a truth trigger now a truth trigger is something that you will spot in some feedback and it’ll be related to the truth whether something is right or wrong so somebody may say cal your videos are not about making money online and your instant reaction are yes they are it’s about making money from online businesses

youtube websites it is about making money online so instantly I’m fighting there because that truth triggers kicked in and I’m reacting to the fact that they have got that information wrong the second trigger that kicks in is one that’s called a relationship trigger now the relationship trigger is the

the relationship you have with that person so let’s say a comment or some feedback is from somebody you know then that reaction instantly is escalated so let’s say your competitor has commented so somebody’s commented on your website saying this article is rubbish and you know that somebody in the same niche is you that instant relationship trigger kicks in because you know that you have a personal relationship with that person so

if it’s let’s say a friend or a family member giving you some feedback again it’s escalated because you know them and it’s hard to hear negative feedback from a loved one right if your wife or your husband or your partner says to you you’ve done that wrong it hurts right it hurts so much more than

somebody in the street just going I think you’ve got that wrong mate and you just go oh whatever and you brush it off when it comes from your partner it’s a lot deeper it hurts a lot more and the third one is called an identity trigger

now an identity trigger is is you it’s how you are wired and built to react to comments feedbacks or anything that’s happening in your business life or your WordPress website or whatever that may be is how quickly you as a person can react to that feedback and either find the good things within it or

find the positive things within that feedback or how long it takes you to actually dwell on it until the point where eventually you do realize okay maybe what they said is right now I know many people react differently and a friend of mine who’s a YouTuber again he suffers quite a lot with this I’ve

noticed in a few videos now if he gets any negative comments he kind of takes it to heart and it takes him a long time to get over it so his identity trigger is is really long it’s it’s a longer period than it is for me so if somebody comments on mine yeah it hurts and yeah I want to put up that

brick wall but I can get all of them relatively quicker than I think he can so my identity trigger isn’t as affected as much as his so I’ll probably hear you saying okay kyle what is this all about this how is it going to affect you and how can you use that so what I’d like you to do is actually go into your let’s

see it’s a WordPress website you’ve got a niche website go into your niche website and have a look at why are some of your articles not getting traffic to have a look be honest be critical ask for feedback send them to a friend get

somebody to read them and find out why are people not enjoying them that’s one thing you could do why are you not getting enough amazon commissions again ask a friend take a look at your articles where you think you should be earning more amazon commissions why you’re not getting

them look in the comments on your blog what are people saying about that are they saying the information’s incorrect are they saying this article is useless they may be right they may be wrong they might trigger one of those

reactions from you but they’ve taken the time to comment so something must be wrong it’s very rare unless you get the trolls that people comment or give you feedback that doesn’t have some sense of truth to it there is usually a reason why they’ve done it if they’ve taken the time to give you that

feedback there must be some truth in it somewhere so take my videos you know all the comments on my initial first dozen videos that said your audio mic is terrible they were right 100 there was right it was and I chose to

ignore it until you know I got a better mic or can get a better location so it’s okay understanding that there is something wrong and if you can change it great if you can’t then you know you can’t but at least you need to identify

that what they’re saying and that that you see as negativity is not it’s positive feedback if you’ve got a youtube channel scroll through all your comments and have a look and pick out those negative ones, yes you are

gonna have the trolls you’re gonna have something there that there are some people you just can’t please there are some people that just want to give bad news want to give nasty comments and obviously you do need to ignore

those or just delete them but there are often some comments that come across where straight away my trigger is reacted and I put that brick wall but then when I take the time to actually read it and process it you start to look at the things and go okay so maybe they are right so it’s very rare that I

say be negative or look for the negativity I’m probably one of the most positive and go get the kind of people you’re never gonna meet but you know there are times where you do need to sit back okay let’s process some of this

the negativity that’s going on and see what we can get out of that and really drive and push our business forward so I wouldn’t say spend forever doing that you don’t want to dwell in negativity forever but it is worth taking a few

hours out each month just to look at some of the things that are going on your traffic’s gone down your sales has gone down your comments are bad your emails are not getting opened your youtube videos getting loads of thumbs down have a look at that and see if you can pick out the positive things

within that negativity to grow your business so I hope you like that something different from me I just wanted to share some of my business practices that I’m doing I don’t want it always to be about WordPress products and plugins and tools and all these things I want to actually share

my journey this is my business journey this is my youtube journey and I want to share with you some of the things I do in my daily life I don’t want to get too deep or guru-esque or anything like that but it is something that I do now and again about once every two or three months I dwell on the

negativity for a few days just to actually find the positivity within that and it actually helps me and it actually helps me process all the bad things that are going around in my head why am I not getting the sales why do they not like

my videos I managed to be able to process them and then move forward and that then picks me up and helps me do more positive things so I hope you like that if you’re new to the channel please subscribe I have a ton of videos

in my playlist and if you like the video give it a thumbs up and for now thank you very much for joining me and I’ll see you in the next video
