CHAPTER 4 , PAGE 3

Attitudes that can be turned around…

 

Rather than being annoyed, be amused.

Instead of getting angry, become curious.

In place of envy, feel admiration.

In place of worry, take action.

In place of doubt, have faith.

Negative energy is just positive energy

that's flowing in the opposite direction.

There's no need to fight or run away

from that negative energy.

All you need to do is change its direction.

The more negative you are,

the more positive you can be.

An automobile that can travel

70 miles per hour to the east...

can also travel just as fast when going west.

But first, someone must turn it around.

When you sense yourself becoming negative,

stop and consider what it would mean to apply that

negative energy in the opposite direction.

Turn your sadness into caring.

Transform your complaints into useful suggestions.

Change your bitterness into determination.

The energy is already there,

All you need to do is change its direction.

GOOD MORNING

We have been blessed by two beautiful days to start the week off. I have to tell you that Spring in Ohio is not very often this pleasant. We usually have pretty cool weather right up to Memorial Day in May.

We rarely get very few days over 50 degrees in April. I’m not complaining that’s for sure. I’m enjoying every single minute of them. I do count my blessings every day. They are many and I am thankful.

TODAY’S THOUGHT

Attitudes are contagious is yours worth catching?

Thank You for this will start my day off in the right direction.  So many times we are told what to do but not how to do it.  How do I turn my negative energy in the other direction?
