Positive Conversation


Words are just thoughts spoken out loud. If we are using our conversations as a way to feel good we have to make sure they are upbeat and positive.

We all have the need to vent at times and this does help us to feel better even though the venting is probably not the best conversation we could have. It does make a difference however if we are repeating it over and over to others. One time to vent is one thing repeating is another.

  • What if we decided to keep our conversations as positive as we could?
  • What if we found the most upbeat way to talk about a situation?

We are in control of how we think and feel about every subject there is to talk about. If we look for the best way to look at things then when we talk about them we are seeing the positive instead of the negative.

Speaking in a negative way fuels anger and unhappiness. Is this what we want for ourselves or can we turn that around by checking ourselves before we start to talk so that negativity doesn't become the habit.

  • What if we ask ourselves is this a negative thought that doesn't need to be brought up?
  • What if we challenge ourselves to do better when it comes to communicating in a positive way?

We are in charge of what we say so let's be mindful of how much we complain, how much we find fault, how much we tear down everything and everyone around us.

  • What if we thought of how to be kinder, more compassionate, and more caring?
  • What if we changed a cynical attitude for a more upbeat and positive one?

These are all possible if we put the effort into it. Imagine if you will if all of us started thinking and talking in a more upbeat and positive way. We could actually change things.

Thoughts about yourself and your life.


It is so important how we think about ourselves and our life. How we view everything really. Isn't it funny that most people don't like how they look or where they are in life when in fact the most important thing about it all is we could be happy if we allowed ourselves to be just by recognizing what we have to be grateful for.

When we find fault with our appearance or our living conditions or our occupation we are sabotaging everything good that is really going on.

What if we saw all the positives in the way we look?

We are not suppose to fit into some kind of mold that makes us look like everyone else. We are one of kind each of us so we get to look the way we do without any limitations. We only limit ourselves when we try to look and be like anyone but us. Find all of your positive attributes ......... you have them believe me. Most of all what is inside of you is far more important than what is on the outside.

What if we decided that we are content with where we live at the moment?

Finding the positive parts of where we live right now helps us to not only feel better about where we are but it also helps us to move forward knowing that things will change as they always do and we will live other places that please us even more.

What if we were grateful for having a job knowing that by appreciating being employed always brings out the best feelings about our work.

Again this is about recognizing the fact that life wouldn't be easy for us if we were unemployed. Just knowing that we have a job to go to should be enough positive thinking to be able to at least work with some peace of mind.

If we are continually unhappy about everything then we cannot open the space for happiness to come into our lives. It is all a state of mind so use your thoughts to find the positive in every aspect of your life. 

Make a list of all the things  you have to be grateful for about your appearance.......your living conditions......your job. Once you see these things in writing it makes them real and trust me once you start writing you will find more than you ever thought about to be grateful for.

Many Blessing to All

Imagination


I have said this many times and everyone agrees: "If we weren't suppose to use our imagination we wouldn't have one."

It is easy to imagine anything anytime of the day. We can slip into a thought of what we would like to have or be or do and wow it is right there a vivid picture in our mind. The key is how do we use our imagination to our advantage. 

Imagination can be used two ways either positive or negative. 

It can help us to move forward with an idea or a solution that helps us to navigate in a positive ways through life. It can also be our worst enemy if we use it to picture the worst case scenario possible.

Of course you can imagine the worst things possible. You can see and feel everything in a bad and unhappy way but why would you do this to yourself when the alternative is so much better.

Once we imagine something positive it begins a thought process of possibilities. It is our mind giving us choices about what we want next on our journey. When we can picture something, when we imagine what it would be like we begin to feel good about where we are headed. When we feel good about whatever we have imagined then we feel hope. The more we imagine the better the thoughts and feelings about life become.

I would ask you to take a moment to think back on your life and remember the times when you have imagined certain instances in your life that have then happened for you. The times when you really could see and feel what you wanted and it became a reality. I know you can think of a few if you focus on it.

Imagination is like a road map if you allow it to be. You think about it you feel it and then you know the difference a positive outlook can make. This is about your bringing into your life without resistance what you want for yourself.

  • What if you used your imagination in the best possible way every day.
  • What if you trusted that you are in charge of creating beautiful thoughts for yourself and your journey?
Just think of what your energy level would be if you were using your imagination in the best possible way.

Let your imagination be creative and fun. Let it allow you the freedom to think and feel the best things about yourself and your life. Clear your mind and begin to see clearly through your imagination where you want to go ......... who you want to be.......what you want in your life.

What do you have to lose by imagining? 

Many Blessing to All

Memory and the energy it brings.


Memories are one of the thought processes that are tricky at best.

Our memories are full of pictures of what was and how we use those pictures are so important not only to our energy but our general well-being also.

If we use them wisely we can think and feel the best case scenario possible and focus on the most positive past we can remember.

The past can be a treasure if we choose to look back and find the positive things that happened to us. There really are so many to choose from if we try to remember the good times.....the good places.....the good people.....the good things.

It is easy to look back and find what was wrong and as humans we tend to do this often.

  • What if we took the time to really take a hard look at what was right instead of what was wrong?
  • What if we focused on when in the past we were happy?

If we use our memories not so wisely we bring into our life a scenario that makes our lives a misery.

The past can haunt us if we use our memories to go back and see things only in a way that helps us remember the hurt or sadness or unhappiness we have lived through.

 If we allow it we can relive these negative times of our lives even blame our unhappiness today on those times if we choose to. But as you can see just by reading this the energy level drops to a very low point. We give life to something that is only a memory.......a time stamp if you will that can never happen again in the same way.

  • What if we let go and let those unhappy memories become a nonstarter in our thoughts?
  • What if we allow ourselves the opportunity to heal from anything in the past that still affects us just by not giving them attention?

It is up to us to choose where we want our energy to be focused. We can feel good about our lives if we choose to use our memories in a positive and upbeat way.

We can choose to not forget but to stop giving life to something that is behind us and is over. It is really a choice about living in the now in a way that brings light and love into our personal space.

It is about the choice to be vital with positive energy or to be negative and living in the past with unhappiness.

Many Blessings to All
