HOW CAN WE BE POSITIVE IN A NEGATIVE WORLD?

"Don't make money your goal. Instead, pursue the things you love doing, and do them so well that people can't take their eyes off you. All the other tangible rewards will come as a result."
-- Maya Angelou

       Hi friends, It has been quite sometime since I have last blogged. So much has happened, I am not sure where to begin lol. Well a few weeks back I lost my 10 yr old dalmatian "Rucca" to cancer...this devastated me for a while...she was family. That is the second dog child I have lost this year. Moving on past my pets..I personally have been going through many personal issues that have been hurtful, eye opening,  and challenging during the past few weeks mainly. Through times like this...it sure does show who is who and WHO is a true friend. Most importantly, to me it shows genuine character on the behalf of a handful of people that I know out of ALL the many many folks I talk with, work with, and so on. I was letting the negative thought pattern take over for a short time and let me tell you that is not healthy at all. So I have been going full force to make some life changes for the positive and to learn to think and live and BE positive...its much too easy to be negative.   Our lives can be full of problems. Each and everyone of us have experienced trouble but you don't have to let that trouble or problem(s) define who you are and what you can achieve in life. One of the keys to a successful and happy life i think, is positive thinking. Positive thinking is a motivational tool used by many to achieve greatness. If you've ever wanted to be successful in live, take time out of each day to think positive and put your intentions on something Positive. Intention plays a key role in  everything we do, I believe that personally.  When you have the opportunity to complain about something that is going on in your life, take all of that negative energy and turn it into a positive life changing force. Focus on the solution to your problems.  I know this is all easier said than done, but can't knock it until you try it right? Friends try to always keep your eye on your prize/goals because that will keep your mind from wondering and thinking about the issue that is troubling you so much.
 Try Using Affirmations.
If your a regular reader, you know I use affirmations a lot lol.  Using affirmation(s) is a great way to overcome negative thinking and that kind of thought pattern in your life. An affirmation is an declaration that something is true. Here is a generic example, you may be having trouble finding employment after graduating from college. You stumble upon a website that show you ways to improve your life using affirmations. After taking notes, you decide to affirm that you have a great job working with people who are very kind and helpful. After a time of using that affirmation, you may get a call from human resources requesting your presence for an interview..See Our Intentions will manifest into the physical..so be careful what and how you put your intentions on things and such.
 Try Goal setting?
Goals setting is  another form of positive thinking that will enhance your life and journey. Set long term and short term goals to help you achieve greatness in your life. When you set goals, you focus your attention on what is positive and make your intention positive and self-less. It helps you to get your mind off of your problems. Goal setting and affirmations work together. I suggest to have a goal set  before you use your personal daily affirmations.
Remember friends,  never give up on your hopes, visions and dreams. Giving up is NOT an option..trust me I know lol.  No matter how hard things may be at the time, or how no hope may be in sight, don't go by what we see with our physical eyes instead always believe in yourself and the power of positive intentions. You don't have to live in sadness, depression, lack or anger, etc. because of the problems that you are facing. When times get tough and you are searching for a way out of turmoil, use the power of positive thinking and a good support system. It will turn a frown into a smile. It will turn your negative into a positive. Make a decision TODAY friends to use positive thinking and it will change your life inside and out. Remember Rome wasn't built in a day, so do not expect instant miracles lol, But start TODAY and see what happens :-)  THANKS FRIENDS FOR STOPPING BY!
