THINK POSITIVE


Such beautiful rainbow colors only make you happy and feel positive about your life. In other words, the "somewhere over the rainbow" feeling.......My favorite one minute mantra whenever I feel a paralyzing stress response kicking in, is to take a deep breath and say to myself "Betty you can do this".....as you brace in the dentist office or force yourself to do one more set of leg exercises in physical therapy. This psychologist-approved strategy pulls your body away from animal response to stress ( you know that shallow breathing and muscle tension feeling) and toward the human one ......using your intellect! 'To get something you never had, you have to do something you never did.' When God takes something from your grasp, He is not punishing you, but merely opening your hands to receive something better. "The will of God will never take you where the Grace of God will not protect you" Believe something good will happen to you, something that you have been waiting to hear. This is where the practicing positive thinking can come in hardy.
I like the follow: There comes point in your life when you realize........Who matters......Who never did......Who won't anymore........And who always will. So, don't worry about people from your past, there's a reason why they didn't make it to your future. If you can just get up every morning with positive thoughts it can make each day great......well, maybe better......or, not as bad as it would have been if your jumped into negative every morning! Try it..........
