Have you ever wondered why some people
wake up in the morning
as chirpy as the busy birds outside
the window? While others
wake up grumpy. Ever wonder why some
people seem happy most
the time, while others are withdrawn,
sad, depressed or bitter?
Well, I have. And, since I pondered
I went to find out why.
It is all in attitude. Changing the
way you think about things.
Is the glass half full, or is it half
empty? Is the sun bright
and beautiful or is it hot and miserable?
Does the rain falling
day after day drag yours spirits down,
or do you ever look at
the beauty of the rain?
Every situation in life has two sides
as we have good we also
have to have evil, for without evil
we would not recognize good.
Without cold, there would not be any
warm. Without noise, we
could not recognize the beauty of silence.
When Einstein failed,
he didn't think failure, he basically
thought, oh I have found
one more way that my idea won't work.
When Lincoln tried for
president countless times, he didn't
think failure, he thought
about how he could improve his campaign
so he could win an
election.
Attitude, and how you perceive things
are the key to your own
happiness. If you are feeling overwhelmed
in a situation in
life, rather than sitting there feeling
sorry for yourself,
think positive. Find something that
you can learn and gain from
the situation.
A death in the family is a tragic thing.
But, look around, did
the death not bring the rest of the
family together for grieving
and emotional support and closer to
each other as they talked
about memories of their loved ones?
Did not death bring into
mind the frailty of life, and the knowing
that you could leave
this world any minute and that tomorrow
could be your last day?
Did you do all you wanted to do in
this life time yet? Or, have
you sat back making excuses for each
day of why you have not
reached for dreams?
Attitude, wake up in the morning, smile
in the mirror, welcome
each day with the love you would give
your precious child and
savor the day. When things are down,
turn them around. When
things are happy, pile that happy time,
into your mind, where
you can pull it out anytime you need
a bit of cheering up.
Embrace life and be grateful for things
in life.
Attitude. Have you ever noticed how
happy it feels to give?
Giving of ourselves is wondrous thing.
To see the smile of
gratitude upon someone's radiant face.
Or hear the small thank
you for your help, is a great way to
start on an attitude change.
Attitude, don't fixate on small things.
Look at the larger
scale. It is amazing that in a true
crisis, you can rise up to
the challenge, but it is always the
last little small thing that
throws people off into an angry fit.
Remember, many people are born blessed
with good health and
money are not happy. And, many people
who have suffered and
struggled are the happiest of all.
It is all on how you look at
it. So, keep your chin up, and try
to find the bright side to
every situation that life throws you,
for inside yourself lies
true happiness.
