Think Positive Thoughts Every Day

Always Be as Happy as You Possibly Can Be

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Wed, 5 Oct 2011 22:23:00 -0700

Love yourself every day
and remember
how many people love you.
Do good things for others,
but also give to yourself.
Release the child within you
so you can sing,
laugh, and play.
List the things
that you do best,
and give yourself a hug.
Accept compliments.
dance barefoot.
Plan to fulfill a secret wish.
Laugh at yourself.
And above all,
remember you are loved.

- Jacqueline Schiff

There is no difficulty that enough

love will not conquer; No disease

that enough love will not heal; No

door that enough love will not open;

No gulf that enough love will not

bridge; No wall that enough love will

not throw down; No sin that enough

love will not redeem.

It makes no difference how deeply

seated may be the trouble; How

hopeless the outlook; How muddled

the tangle; How great the mistake.

A sufficient realization of love will

dissolve it all... If you only could

love enough you would be the

happiest and most powerful being in

the world.

- Emmet Fox

Have Faith, and Expect the Best

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 23:04:00 -0700

Faith begins
by believing
in your heart
that what is right
has chance.

Faith is knowing
in your heart
that good can
overcome evil,
that the sun can shine
in a rainstorm.

Faith is peaceful
and comforting,
because it
comes from within
where no one
can invade
your private dreams.

Faith is not something
you can demand
or command;
it is a result of
commitment to belief.

Faith is believing
in something
you can't see or hear,
something deep inside
that only you understand
and only you control.

Faith is trusting
in yourself
enough to know
that no matter
how things turn out,
you will make
the best of them.

How to Grow Happiness

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Mon, 3 Oct 2011 23:02:00 -0700

Step 1:
Plant yourself deep in a bed of faith, and pack it down solid and tight. Drench daily with positive thinking, and keep saturated just right. Mulch often wirh forgiveness, for this will help you grow.
Quickly remove any seeds of worry, for they will soon germinate, and keep out the weeds of despair. Nourish disappointments with hope whenever it is needed, and always stay cool and shaded when you feel irritated or heated. Trim away guilt or depression, for they create decay, and cultivate with happy memories as pften as every day.

Step 2:
Harvest the lessons of the past; just dig, pick, and hoe. And nurture the roots of the present, for now is when you flourish and grow. Start planting for the future; set your goals in a row. Spade the bed well for all your dreams to grow.

Step 3:
Remember the grief is a natural predator, so learn to tolerate some damage. Protect your garden with daily prayers, for this will help you manage. bury the criticism and complaining, for they are injurious pests.
Sow the seed of love wherever you may go - for joy, love, and laughter are surely bound to grow. Although the thorns of life may be here to stay, just sprout a smile along the way... and be thankful for what you have today!

Never Give Up Hope

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 23:24:00 -0700

Life doesn't always give us
   the joy we want.
We don't always get our hopes
   and dreams,
and we don't always get
   our own way.
But don'tgive up hope,
because you make a difference
one situation and one person
   at a time.

Look for the beauty around you -
in nature, in others, in yourself -
and believe in the love
of friends, family, and humankind.

You can find love in a smile
   or a helping hand,
in a thoughtful gesture
   or kind word.
It is all around, if you
   just look for it. Give love,
for in giving it
you will find the power in life
along with the joy, happiness,
patience, and understanding.

Believe in the goodness of others
and remember that anger
   and depression
can be countered by love and hope.

Even when you feel as though
there isn't a lot you can do
to change unhappiness or problems,
you can always do a little -
and little at a time
eventually make a big difference.

Keep on Believing!

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Tue, 13 Sep 2011 22:56:00 -0700

Keep believing that you have
   what it takes
to make your dream
   into a reality.
Keep thinking positive thoughts,
and know that you have the ability
   to do anything.
Find the encouragement
   inside yourself
to know that you're worthwhile
   and distinct -
someone who deserves
   the very best there is.

Keep on trying.
Accept those things that you must,
change the things that are the worst,
and learn to find security and peace
   within your heart, your strength,
     and your self-assurance.
Keep on being the person
   that you are -
the one who gives those around you
such a feeling of reassurance and hope.
Keep on believing, because you deserve
the joy, peace, faith, hope, and love
that you're seeking.
You deserve every fulfillment
and satisfaction in everything you try.

Think Positive Thoughts Every Day

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Tue, 6 Sep 2011 05:51:00 -0700

   If your life feels like it is lacking the power that you want and the motivation that you need, sometimes all you have to do is shift your point of view.
   By training your thoughts to concentrate on the bright side of things, you are more likely to have the incentive to follow through on your goals. You are less likely to be held back by negative ideas that might limit your performance.
   Your life can be enhanced, and your happiness enriched, when you choose to change your perspective. Don't leave your future to chance, or wait for things to get better mysteriously on their own. You must go in the direction of your hopes and aspirations. Begin to build your confidence, and work through problems rather than avoid them. Remember that power is not necessarily control over situations, but the ability to deal with whatever comes your way.
   Always believe that good things are possible, and remember that mistakes can be lessons that lead to discoveries. Take your fear and transform it into trust; learn to rise above anxiety and doubt. Turn your "worry hours" into "productive hours." Take the energy that you have wasted and direct it toward every worthwhile effort that you can be involved in. You will see beautiful things happen when you allow yourself to experience the joys of life. You will find happiness when you adopt positive thinking into your daily routine and make it an important part of your world.

Promise Yourself Only the Best

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Tue, 6 Sep 2011 03:14:00 -0700

to dream more and hesitate less.
To believe in yourself more

the accomplishments of others.
To appreciate you family
and friends
for all the wonderful ways
they make your life better.

to accept life as it comes
and truly make each day special.
To become more independent
and more willing to change.
To fill your life
with special times,
and make your dreams come true.

Look in the Bright Side

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Tue, 6 Sep 2011 02:53:00 -0700

When life seems overwhelming
   and you can't seems to get
   everything done...
When there isn't enough time
   to relax and enjoy...
When there is little reward
   for all your efforts and
   you wonder if it's all worth it,
   if this is what life is all about,
   and if this is what the future
     holds in store...

Try to keep a positive attitude attitude by looking
   for the little blessings that happen
   every day yet often go unnoticed.
Keep your mind open to humorous situations,
   because humor can rescue you
     from being overwhelmed.
And never forget that there are people
   who love and care about you;
   people who want to help and support you
   through life's difficult times;
   people who think you're pretty special;
   people who care a whole lot about you.

- Barbara Cage

When Difficulties Arise.... "Hang in There"

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Mon, 5 Sep 2011 21:58:00 -0700

Difficulties arise in the lives of us all. What is most Important is dealing with the hard times, coping with the changes, and getting through to the other side where the sun is still shining just for you.

It takes a strong person to deal with tough times and difficult choices. but you are a strong person. It takes courage. but you possess the inner courage to see you through. It takes being an active participant in your life. but you are in the driver's seat, and you can determine the direction you want tomorrow to go in.

Hang in there.... and take care to see that you don't lose sight of the one thing that is constant, beautiful, and true. Everything will be fine - and it will turn out that way because of the special kind of person you are.

So.... beginning today and lasting a lifetime though - Hang in there, and don't be afraid to feel like the morning sun is shining... just for you.

10 Suggestions for a Brighter Future

noreply@blogger.com (yatz) — Mon, 5 Sep 2011 20:47:00 -0700

Realize that life isn't always fair . Accept what you must, and change what you can.
Think before you act. A moment of carelesness or anger can cause years of anguish and regret.
Look for the beauty in life, in people, in nature, and in youreself.
Appreciate what you have: the people, the opportunities, the material possessions.
Make the effort to have fun.: it's a great way to bond with others, and it makes some of the best memories.
Set aside some time for yourself. Do someting you enjoy without feeling even a little guilty.
Accept others without judgment. Everyone is unique, and it's okay to be different.
Forgive. Bitterness and resentment hurt you more than the person you direct them at.
Learn. Open you mind to new ideas and activities, and don't be afraid to try.
Dream. Make plans, believe in yourself, and go for what you want.
