Day 71
To me “being positive” feels impossible at times because being positive is an action, not a feeling. So, if I’m not feeling good it is more of a struggle to be positive in my actions.
For example, Tuesday I wasn’t feeling good and making a choice to be positive seemed impossible. Wednesday I choose to try observing the positive things going on in the world in even the simplest activities by animating and enlivening to the best of my ability. This happens to everybody. We can choose to get stressed and yell and scream at the other guy (who also is stuck!) or we can take the time to chill, do the time and observe what we’re feeling and why. Remember, every day is not promised to be a great day!
Choosing a brighter outlook, one where your thinking expands in a positive direction can be one way to finding a new horizon, a new position in the world. How can that possibly be bad?
Quotation for the Day
What happened yesterday is history. What happens tomorrow is a mystery. What we do today makes a difference – the precious present moment. ~ Nick Saban
