Today's Gift
Today's Gift
One way to become
enthusiastic is to look for the plus sign. To make progress in any difficult
situation, you have to start with what's right about it and build on that. --
Norman Vincent Peale
Beginning our days with a positive mental outlook is
a great depression chaser. Simply lifting our heads and looking up and out
instead of down will make us feel better. Although we can't spend all our time
staring at the sky, we can train ourselves to look for the best in ourselves and
others.
Even in the middle of difficulty or pain, we have
choices. We can choose a gloom-and-doom attitude and endlessly replay the
thoughts that accompany it. Or we can step back and find the one good thing. We
may be blinded with pain. The situation may appear hopeless, utterly bleak.
But life guarantees that we are equal to it; that in our pain there is at least
one good thing.
We are the masters of our fate. We can change even
the most difficult situations with an attitude of hope and positive expectation.
Approaching each day with a hopeful heart will give us a different approach to
our troubles.
Today help me find the one good thing. Help me
let go of fear and negativity.
