Feeling Good Tip of the Day ~ Shine on & Shine Brightly

by

“Make your morning great. Wake up to something that makes you happy and the rest of the day will follow suit.  When you wake up, try to spend a few minutes looking outside of your bedroom window.  Having a connection with nature, or starting your day in a self-affirming way, are very important to having a bright and positive outlook.” Source

NOTE: It almost sounds too good to be true. It is. The attitude we take to the day is the attitude that will guide our thoughts and actions throughout the day. Why choose to be a hot burning coal when you can be the sunshine? One will drag you and all around you down. The other will lift you and all near you up. Shine On!!

Feeling Good Tip of the Day ~ Make a Great Choice

by

“Set intentions for your day: Have you noticed that when you’re shopping for a new car, it suddenly seems that every vehicle you see is the exact model you’re considering? That’s because your brain can only actually consciously perceive part of what’s going on around you at any time. What you notice is whatever matches things that are already top-of-mind. It’s a phenomenon researchers call “selective attention” and it’s why Webb suggests you become more deliberate about setting your intentions for the day.” Source

 

Note: What is your primary intention today? The intention you choose is consequential for the kind of day you’ll have. When we chose to get even with someone, our day will be filled with anger and recalling past grievances. Conversely, if we choose an intention to do a good deed for someone or to successfully complete a task, we’ll be filled with positive energy. It doesn’t seem to be a difficult choice. Yet, to make it, we have to be awake to what is happening in our minds when we start the day. We have the power to set our intention.

Positive Thought of the Day ~ What Are You Doing with Your Life?

“The only person you are destined to become is the person you decide to be.”

Ralph Waldo Emerson
NOTE: One of life’s great journeys is to discover who we are. We discover it by finding the meaning in our life and having the sense of knowing that this is what I was born to be and do. When that day arrives, you’ll know and nothing will stop you from living it to its fullest.

Feeling Good Tip of the Day ~ Discover the Good in Your Life

by

“If you’re struggling to find joy, there’s one simple yet powerful thing that can help: digging for joy. “Take a moment once a day to recognize the things that are good in your life. At the moment I’m calling it ‘having a dig for joy’ to find the little moments that make us happy in our day,” . . . These little moments can help to buffer against stress and anxiety. It’s a simple practice to do even on terrible days.” Source

NOTE: Instead of asking or thinking about ‘what’s wrong’ try asking and thinking about ‘what’s right or good.’ For each moment in your life you conjure up something wrong, with a bit of effort you’ll discover ten moments where something good happened. These are the times where it all came together and turned out right. You’ll feel a lot better.

Feeling Good Tip of the Day ~ Your Cup is Overflowing

by

“Constructing an optimistic vision of life allows one to have a full interpersonal world in spite of unfortunate circumstances … [it] reduces feelings of sadness/depression and anxiety, increases your lifespan, fosters stronger relationships with others and provides a coping skill during times of hardship. Being optimistic allows you to handle stressful situations better, which reduces the harmful health effects of stress on your body.” Source

NOTE: Instead of looking at your cup as half-full, look at it as overflowing, spilling off the table, running across the floor and out the door flooding the street where you live. Now, that is some kind of optimism and it is available to each of us. The key is within us. The more we reach out to help others and bring benefit to our world the more we are filled with an optimistic spirit. We are no longer powerless, we are empowered. What are you waiting for? The world is waiting for you.

Positive Thought of the Day ~ Push Forward, Never Quit

by

“It does not matter how slowly you go as long as you do not stop.”

Confucius

NOTE: The most successful people I’ve met are those who have dogged persistence. They don’t quit. They keep moving forward even if their goal always seems a bit out of their grasp. They put their head down, dig a bit deeper, and push forward. One day, they look back amazed at how far they’ve come. Do the same.
