the magical powers of positive thinking!

 ...or how to keep smiling! :)

So this year has been pretty rubbish in a lot of ways, it's kinda starting to feel like one thing after another is going wrong...particularly for my dad :(

I learn't something a little while ago that has really helped me not get too dragged down by everything.

'If you fight against what is, you fight against the entire universe'...and that sounds pretty exhausting!

By accepting that sometime bad things happen that we have absolutely no control over...(such is life and we are all fighting our own personal battles) we start to focus on the things that we can actually control. Primarily our own outlook.

Looking at what we do have, rather than what we wish was different is much more rewarding and allows us to appreciate what we have.  It also means that by taking control of the situation we can make positive/proactive changes to improve our life and the situation rather than just sitting and being miserable.

In short negativity gets us no where, it perpetuates the situation and often makes the problem seem much much bigger than it really is.

Positive thinking gives us the power to improve our situation, or at least keep us smiling when times get tough!:)
