"Thoughts, beliefs, and self-talk."

Can you believe that as many as 90,000 thoughts a day pass through our brains! Most of those thoughts are the same ones, over and over. The trouble is, that if the majority of our thoughts are negative, repetition will make them seem like truth.

The good news is that since we have the ability to program ourselves to believe negative things about ourselves, we also have the ability to program ourselves to believe in positive things.

As you go through your day, focus on the chatter going on inside your head. If you don't like what you're hearing, then stop, and consciously choose a brighter thought. As you become aware of your thoughts, it will become easier to program yourself to think in positive ways that serve you better!

Focus on what you have, not on what you havent

You are who you are and you have what you have, right now. And it cant be that bad, because otherwise you wouldnt be able to read this. The important thing is simply to find one POSITIVE thought that inspires and helps you move forward. Hold on to it strongly, and focus on it. You may feel like you dont have much, or anything at all, but you have your mind to inspire you. And thats really all you need to start moving forward again.

Welcome life as it comes

What you fight against, fights back. What you're able to welcome and embrace, you're able to influence and direct.

When you welcome the day with genuine enthusiasm, you're already on your way to putting it to valuable use. When you welcome the challenges, you've already begun to transform them into achievements.

Welcome the complaints and criticisms, and you'll discover pivotal avenues for improvement. Welcome the beliefs and opinions of others, and you'll markedly strengthen and focus your own beliefs.

Welcome life's beauty, even in the most ordinary things, and that beauty becomes a part of you. Welcome the unexpected surprises, and they'll lead you to unexpected treasures.

Get in the habit of welcoming what life brings, and you'll get out of the habit of fearing what might come. Choose to welcome both the ups and the downs, and even the setbacks will eventually lead you forward.

Instead of figuring out ways to run or hide or fight, welcome life as it comes. Welcome life, and you'll find great richness in what it brings.
