The benefits of being Positive

This past week I read an article from my church’s monthly magazine about a woman that was struggling with a life trial. As I read this article the benefits of being positive when everything around you seems negative came to my mind. Being positive is a state of mind. Turning a frown upside down into a smile may seem difficult but it is possible.

Today I thought I would list out the benefits of being positive. Perhaps this list will help you when you feel discouraged or down.

1. Troubles seem lighter
2. Attract more positive happenings
3. Attract more positive individuals into your life
4. Less stress
5. More money
6. Healthier relationships
7. Fulfillment
8. Better health
9. Clarity of mind
10. Possibility mindset

These benefits are immediate once you choose to embrace positivity. The power is within each one of us. We have the ability to be positive. The benefits of being positive impact us in every facet, stage and season of life. Positivity equates to abundance. Isn’t abundance and happiness what we all are seeking?

Celebrating Accomplishments

Celebrating Accomplishments

This past week I spoke to an incredible group of professionals that have been hit hard by economic times. It was a great experience and went really well. Sometimes I have a tendency to pick apart my performance and miss the opportunity of celebrating my accomplishments. Celebrating accomplishments is our way of honoring the positive and encouraging more opportunities along our journey.

We can be our own worst critic and quite frankly the goal is to NOT listen to internal trash talk. We have to guard the internal messages and truly celebrate all the good we are and the accomplishments we achieve.

Realizing that we are in control only of ourselves and no one else, this control is best realized by controlling our thoughts and what we let penetrate. Don’t take anything personally! This is a great mantra and will help keep us clear and balanced.

What do you need to celebrate that you have put off?

Water, Sun and Music – Energy Fix

Waterfall

What feeds your energy level? Water, sun and music are my elixirs! Water: I love the peacefulness of a waterfall, the strength of the ocean and the creativity of a creek. The sun provides light and joy to my spirit. When basking in the sun my heartbeat lowers which calms me. Basking in the sun also allows me to meditate and create. Lastly, music in all varieties but especially big band! The mood that music creates is energizing in a variety of settings.

It’s important to realize where we can tap into our energy source. If you don’t feed your energy source then you run the risk of not functioning at the highest level or at all. When you need that extra energy boost and realize where the healthiest avenue exists, it will aid you in overcoming blocks – mental, emotional and physical.

List out today what energy source turns you into the person you desire to be. Then let the ideas and opportunities flow to endless possibilities.

Mistakes and Big Oops

Mistakes-and-Big-Oops-e1378493521644-764x1024

Have you ever made a big mistake? My Mom would occasionally make a salad that consisted of a pear, scoop of cottage cheese and Miracle Whip on top. This may sound unappetizing to some but it is actually tasty. Sometimes when I am longing for my home I will make this concoction.

One day I made this for lunch and went to put a little paprika on it and I goofed! Instead of opening the lid with the sprinkles I opened the larger lid that you pour from. This was a big oops – see picture! No matter what we may do to prevent making mistakes, they will come.
mistakes
The trick is to laugh at them, learn from them and sometimes start over. That is exactly what I did with this little salad. What mistakes do you need to move on from? Start today and enjoy the fruit of your labor.
