Make Up Your Mind
Most folks are about as happy as they make up their minds to be.
--Abraham Lincoln
Our negative thoughts can be like pebbles rolling down the mountainside. One pebble bumps into another one. The second begins rolling and slams into a third. On and on it goes until thousands of pebbles, rocks, and even giant boulders are hurtling down the mountain.
When we find ourselves stuck in a rut thinking a negative thought, we can decide to stop and replace it with a positive thought. At first our single positive thought may not dislodge another one. We may have to think of several and start them rolling down the mountainside. If we practice, we will find it becomes easier for that first good thought to shake loose others. We will see our lives change when we begin to look at the positive side of things.
How can I begin to shape my outlook today?

Every single morning I wake with a smile. Thinking good thoughts= good things will happen.
Nothing to do with other people, but everything to do with ourselves.
I can shape my world just by changing how I think about anything. We need to exercise the mind. Let positive thoughts dance in your mind.
