Thankfulness Anyone?

One health problem after another, no money, no job, I can't drive, I don't know if I will still be here tomorrow...if I sat around and complained about all of my problems I would be so miserable! If I sat around and complained about all of my problems every single day, I would have been checked into the nut house by now! Rather than focusing on anything negative, however, I have chosen (yes chosen, because it is a choice) to think only of the positive. It doesn't matter if the positive is being out negatived 5 to 1. As long as there is a single positive, I work hard to only focus on it. 
This morning after spending some time on Facebook I am saddened by all of the negativity! Venting is one thing, but I am not seeing any positive  Not only am I not seeing any positive, but I am not seeing these negative things going around even being worked on. We have gotten so caught up in the negative that we have decided that it is all we know and we allow it to continue in our lives, defining who we are and what we do. Why not fix it? Of course it isn't easy, but time is going to keep on moving forward regardless, so why not at least try? 
Is it a negative influence in your life holding you back? Get rid of it. Much easier said then done, I know! But work on a plan of action and then implement it! 
Are you having negative things happen that you can't really change? Then, I challenge you to find and focus on anything positive around you and only look in that direction. Make your goal today to find one good thing in your life and all day keep reminding yourself of that one good thing. Tomorrow, find a second good thing and all day keep reminding yourself of the one good thing you found today, and the one good thing you will find tomorrow! For some, it is easier to keep a journal. Write your positives down. Write out your plan of action as well. It is a new year. Why not create a new you?! I have so much experience in almost every area. Please, message me and we will figure it out together. I would love to be able to help!
Let's flush out all of the negative in 2013! We will be so much happier! Trust me!
