Positive Thoughts

There's not a single person in the world that hasn't
had to struggle with something or overcome
difficulties at some point in life.  We all face challenges
and adversity.

 

At this very moment you may be facing one, whether
They are related to money, health, children, family, spouse
or careers.  It's all part of being alive.
 

Recognize that obstacles are just part of your journey. 
Don't let them stop you and never give up.
Instead, think of them as milestones that once passed,
will bring you closer to your goals.
 
Remember that with every challenge passed, you're
a little stronger, a little wiser and more prepared for
the rest of your journey.

 

Remember when you last cleaned out your clothes closet?
It was tough at first, but afterwards you felt great. 
You got rid of those impulse buys that never worked
and retired those too-tight jeans that you knew
you would never fit into again. 
Remember how you felt?  No guilt or regret just
wonderfully cleansed and organized.

A mental cleaning is even more effective.  It's
a great time to get rid of the bad and the ugly. 
Throw out all your old beliefs,
memories, limitations, guilt, fears, doubts,
and images that are no longer serving you.
Make room in your mental closet for all the
good things that life has to offer.

When you start afresh, with an open and
positive mind, you'll instantly feel energized
and uplifted because all the negativity is gone.
Try it!

 

Do you ever avoid what must be done because you're just not in the
mood? How many opportunities and possibilities are never fulfilled because
you were not in the mood when it was time for action?
Whose mood is it, anyway? It's yours, and you have the option of
adjusting your mood to serve your purposes. There are times when the best
things in life will not wait until your mood happens to be right. There
are times when it is in your best interest to put yourself in the mood
for what must be done.

If you're not in the mood to do some particular task, there's a quick
and easy way to put yourself in the mood. Simply visualize, clearly,
richly and in full detail, how great it will feel to already have the job
done.

The more you don't feel like doing it, the more you will want to have
it done. Focus intensely on the benefits of having it done and that will
put you in the mood to go ahead and get it done.

Your feelings have a powerful influence on you. So focus them in a
positive, productive direction and let them push you forward.
