Positive Thoughts

How positive thoughts improve my life :

  1. Mind – This morning I woke up feeling blessed thankful and grateful. Lately I have been doing things that are godly. I do my best. I ask God for direction and guidance to help me live a life that He wanted me to live. My mind is filled with good thoughts. I decided to share these thought with you.
    • a. I found out my thoughts come from things I’ve been doing like reading, writing, people I hang out with and talk to, what I watch on social media and television.
    • b. Hanging out with positive friends and family lift me up. I improve my thinking. I feel relax, loved, wanted. and supported. As a result, my mind can make better choices and decision. I am able to say no, when it is necessary. It increase my confidence. With God’s help, I am able to do things that are align with God’s will.
    • c. I am not ditching my negative friends and family. I am spending less time with them though. Praying that they will see the light. Prayers works, in God’s timing.
  2. Body – Positive thoughts improved my health. I have to keep in mind that I am 72 years old. I know I don’t feel 72, but I am. I have to choose activities that are more appropriate for people my age. So far it is very helpful. It helps me cope better with stressful situation, which reduces the harmful health effect of stress on my body
    • a. I go to the gym to attend at least 1 class in most days. Before I know it I have done at least 45 minutes of exercise.
    • b Exercise definitely affect my positive mood and reduce my stress.
  3. Spirit – Being optimistic has help me in many areas of my life. I know God is working on my behalf.
    • a. When the door closes on me, I know God is protecting me from doing ungodly things or stopping me from eating poison they are about to serve me.
    • b. I try to find humor in everything , especially in my difficult situations. When I go through difficult times, I make myself smile. I fake it till I make it. I love that saying.
    • c. I do my best to focus on 5 things (1) God (2) health (3) family, friends, pet
    • (4) create (5) serve (It is hard to keep this 5 balance)

I ‘ve been told that I have a positive attitude. I thought I did too. But there is much more to learn. I get excited everyday looking forward to what I am going to enjoy or learn. If you are one of those who have a negative outlook, don’t expect to change overnight. It takes time to practice. It is worth working towards positive attitude. It will bring joy, peace, hope, love and blessings to you, your friends and family. That alone is worth the time and effort to cultivate a positive attitude.

POSITIVE THOUGHTS TURN MY LIGHTS ON

    Mistakes Made By Me

    Gratitude changes everything!!! I always thought I was a “glass half full” kinda gal … but back in December it’s like things finally clicked for me even more! Going from saying “I’m sorry” to “thank you”. I think it’s basically the difference between feeling ashamed and taking from people (their negative energy, their opinions, their validation, ect) to giving instead. Giving thanks, giving positive energy, adding good to the world compared to accepting the bad. Great post! Good work! Keep it up! You got this!! Thank you for sharing! It is an entire mind shift that you’re right does NOT happen over night… but the more you practice it the easier it gets. I, personally was put in several positions in life where I had to fight for what I believed in… and NOT just accept the “crap” I was dealt anymore. With work, drs, family, relationships… I had to stand up for myself or let myself get taken advantage of over and over again. Once I realized my side mattered also in all these areas in a sort amount of time I think that’s why my out look switched. I didn’t even realize a year or two ago at how much I just accepted the “crap” I just thought I was lucky to be alive and I was ok with that… but there is still soooo much good in this world… the more you focus on it the easier it becomes to see! Kinda like fake it till you make it… see the good and the good gets easier to see! Thank you again for being the good!

      You are awesome
      Thank you so much for the comments. I love reading your story. It teared me out. Negative thoughts and wrong thinking can ruin our lives. There’s a lot of people who are not aware of what’s happening. It’s because of tradition, their culture, and how they were brought up. Pray. Talk to God. He is the truth the way, and He will set you free. You are blessed, beautiful, and have been struggling. Time heals. Read and watch inspiring uplifting books and screen time.
      The devil wants us to suffer. God is love. He will help us through. Just believe in God. We are God’s creation. We are not perfect, but we are forgiven ❤️
