Positive Or Negative ?

 Positive Or Negative ?

“There are only two options: make progress or make excuses”

The Strong make progress and the weak make excuses.

Who are you and I?

To be ‘industrious’ and ‘busy’ is good for our health, both mentally and physically. Our minds are too busy planning and working things out, and the exercise is good for our physical health, getting the heart pumping, the lungs breathing and the muscles moving.

Making excuses ‘not’ to do something is lazy, leaving our minds to dwell on negative thoughts, and leaving our bodies to cramp-up through lack of movement.

One has a Positive effect and one has a negative effect.

I know which one I’d rather have.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Do Not Quit !!!

 Do Not Quit !!!

“It’s a slow process but quitting won’t speed it up”

Anything worth having in life is worth waiting for and worth working for.

It may take years, but if you ‘keep going’, you will eventually receive or have it.

If you quit — you’ll never receive or have anything.

Which is best?

When a mother is first pregnant, nine months can seem ever such a long time, but when she holds her new-born baby in her arms, the wait “IS” worthwhile.

A student studying for his or her qualifications does not quit, because the five years of hard studying is worth it to become the doctor who can (and does) save lives.

A ballet dancer starts from a very young age to learn the steps, the routine and the movements for Swan Lake. This takes many years but the end performance is beautiful to watch.

If you ever feel like quitting just remember => you won’t receive anything by quitting.

And it does give you a sense of achievement when you, at last, finish the job.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Make Each Day Count

 Make Each Day Count

“The life in front of you is far more important than the life behind you”

It can be difficult to stop ourselves from thinking about the past, especially when we have been through a trauma.

And yet, the past has gone and belongs to yesterday, where we should try to leave it.

Each and every one of us has our lives ahead of us, and as is always said: “we should make each day count”.

What have you always Wanted to do?

What would you Like to do?

Looking forward to the future and planning ahead will help us to put and keep Positive thoughts in our minds.

Then we will make New and Positive memories to look back on which will have a Strengthening effect on our minds.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Don't Give Them Room

 Don’t Give Them Room

“Laughter and friendship will cure just about anything!”

When we are happy, we feel good.

Mentally — we are in a good place and we don’t seem to feel our physical pains (so much).

Worries and stress seem far away, if only for a short while.

Surely, this can only be a good thing.

It’s been said that: “Laughter is the best medicine”, and when we are laughing we cannot be sad at the same time.

Also, laughter enhances our intake of oxygen-rich air, which stimulates the heart, lungs and muscles.

So the physical ‘act’ of laughing has Positive effects, as well as being good for us mentally.

When we are laughing at a joke, there just is no room for dark thoughts. In fact — don’t give them room!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Be Happy

 Be Happy

“Stay close to anything that makes you glad. You are alive”.

Be with like-minded people and you will all then lift each other up.

When we have that all important “me-time”, do what you enjoy doing, like doing, and what you know will build you up and Strengthen you — both mentally and physically.

Being alive on this beautiful planet Earth is divine. And you need to be alive to appreciate it.

So, whatever makes you Smile => do it!

Whoever makes you Glad to be Alive => stay with that person.

Be with Positive people and you will be Positive yourself.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

Do Your Best

 Do Your Best

“Shoot for the moon. Even if you miss, you’ll land amongst the stars”.

When you do your best, you always ‘reach for the moon’.

Sometimes, when we really want something, we don’t get it and have to make do with ‘the next best thing’ or “the stars”.

I was always ‘taught’ that when you have done your best, you will receive the best => whatever that means to you personally.

Again, how we think affects how and what we will receive.

Think for the Best.

Be Positive that you will receive the Best.

And then => you will DO your Best.

This also means reaching for something ‘within’ your reach.

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

What We Think

 What We Think

“It is our attitude at the beginning of a difficult task which, more than anything else, will affect its successful outcome”.

What we think will affect what we do, which will affect, in turn, whether we are successful or whether we fail.

If we “think” we are going to fail from the beginning, there will be no point even trying.

If we “think”, from the very beginning, that we CAN do something and WILL succeed, there is no time like the present to start.

Our “attitude” affects everything we do.

Attitude means: “a settled way of thinking or feeling about something”.

As it’s a ‘settled way of thinking’, settle your mind NOW that you CAN do something and WILL succeed => every time!

LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!
