Change Your Thinking with Some Positivity

Too often we focus in on all the negative things that are happening around us. Things like:

• "I ate too much over the holidays and have gained all this weight"
• "I am way behind on work"
• "I don't have enough money"
• "I hate my job"
• ... etc

What if today you challenged yourself to think about the positive things that are happening in your life? How might that impact your day and how you feel?

Try this... Take out a sheet of paper and write down 5 things you are happy about in your life. Actually write it down. Then stand in front of your mirror in the morning and look at yourself in the eyes. Repeat the following for each of the items on your list, with conviction of course, "I am proud of... X"

If you really want to challenge yourself do it again before you go to bed.
