Ordinary Thoughts

 Ordinary: with no special or distinctive features; normal.

I don't think that any of us have ordinary thoughts. We are too creative and imaginative to have such bland thoughts. 

In fact our thoughts are really extraordinary. 

Extraordinary: very unusual or remarkable.

The reason I say this is because with our imagination we see our lives with distinctive features and we do have special thoughts about everything.

When we actually focus our thoughts on the things we would like to have happen for us that makes them so powerful. If we stay in a positive frame of mind and see just how life would be and feel the good feelings those thoughts bring to us this makes what we think extraordinary.

• What if you imagined your life the way you would like it to be and just held those thoughts and feelings in your imagination?
• What if you made your focus on yourself with thoughts of wonderful experiences ahead?
• What if you stopped seeing life in the negative and zeroed in on all that positive things possible for you?

It is up to you how you use your thoughts but I would recommend using them to your advantage by seeing and feeling great things for yourself.

Your Power

 Power: the ability to do something or act in a particular way, especially as a faculty or quality.

Most of us don't feel very powerful. We look at ourselves and our lives and we think there are so many other people who have more power than we do. That may be true in their own lives but in our own personal space we have all the power and we fail to use it for our greater good because we are always looking somewhere else for it.

Your power comes from within. It is linked to your thoughts and feelings about every single thing in your life. 

If you are using your thoughts to bring up the positive feelings you want to feel, good for you because that is the secret to it all.

When we think the most positive thoughts about ourselves this gives us the power to feel good about who we are. If we find all the positive things about our appearance, our personality, our abilities, we then have power to envision the best things in our lives.

If you are in a negative train of thought you can feel it. It is like a dim lightbulb that has the ability to shine brightly but needs to be turned up to do so. Negative thinking never ever brings good things to us because there is no power there. When you feel the negativity taking over tell yourself: "These negative thoughts are not for me, I want better thoughts and feelings for my greater good!"

The more positive you think and feel the more power you give yourself to move forward in a direction that not only suits you but brings you the joy in life you deserve.

Consideration

 Consideration: careful thought, typically over a period of time.

I think the key words here are careful thought.

How many of us take the time to think about what we are going to say before we say it? I bet if each of us would consider our words first the world might just be a better place.

• What if we considered other people's feelings?
• What if we took the time to think about what it might mean to someone else if we were more considerate?
• What if we were kinder and more compassionate about people and their circumstances or lifestyle?

Life could be so much easier and much more joyful if people thought before they spoke on so many levels.

We as humans would feel better too. A person cannot feel good about themselves or their lives when they are belittling or criticizing everyone and everything. There is just no way that it can feel good to be constantly using negative words and thoughts towards others.

I would challenge everyone to make your words count for something kind, considerate, and pleasant.

Words Matter

 Word: a command, password, or signal.

Words matter. They are thoughts spoken out loud. We can use them lovingly or harshly it is our choice.

What if we made the effort to you them for kindness?

What if we made the effort to not use them in a hurtful way?

What if we used our words in gratitude and happiness?

What if we used them to point out the good in others?

These are ways to use your words in a meaningful way and because of those small changes life just became better for it.

Kindness

 Kindness: the quality of being friendly, generous, and considerate.

It seems lately that people are complaining about everyone being rude, selfish, and inconsiderate. 

Funny that, as each of us has the ability to be friendly, kind and considerate yet we expect everyone else to be while we don't put those actions to use in our own lives.

• What a difference it would make on our planet if we just used kind words and actions towards each other.
• What a difference it would make within ourselves if we felt the kindness and compassion towards our fellow man. 
• What a difference it would make if we were friendly towards each other and respected each other without question.

I would challenge you all to find kind words, a smile, and consideration towards others. It will make such a huge difference in our world and within ourselves.

One Positive Thought After Another

 Positive thoughts are sometimes hard to come by but you always have them stored in your mind somewhere the secret is to use them to your advantage.

There have been many times in your life when positive things have happened for you so those positive experiences are a part of your mind set you just have to bring them up and remember how great it was to think and feel positive.

• What if you decided to focus on the good things that have happened to you in your life?
• What if you decided to appreciate life with a very positive mind set?
• What if you remembered all the things you have accomplished both big and small in this life?

Believe me when I tell you that once you start thinking positive thoughts about yourself and your life, one positive thought after another keeps coming to show you, that when you are in this frame of mind more and more positive things happen for you.

Your beautiful spirit will be incredibly happy to feel so uplifted and happy.

Being Content

 Contentment: a state of happiness and satisfaction

Most of us could really feel good if we used our thoughts in a way that brought us contentment.

If we are continually looking at our lives as if we are lacking in ways that make us unhappy then we make feeling content out of the question.

If we feel we are lacking;

• Money
• Love
• Happiness
• Self Esteem

These are super negative thoughts that bring us down emotionally.

It seems that we would prefer to see what is missing instead of what we would like to have in our lives.

• What if you were to start seeing yourself in a better way?
• What if you were to notice that when you think positive thoughts positive things happen?
• What if you feel worthy of love and affection?

It really is about seeing things in a more positive and uplifting way so that you can create a more positive and uplifting life.

If you always focus on the negative not only will you produce more negative things in your life you will never feel the joy and happiness you seek because  you are not allowing it to be a part of you.

I challenge you all to take the time to use your focus on what is right in your life, to envision and feel what you would like your life to be like, and to know that positive thinking brings positive results.

Thoughts Are Leading You Where?

 Just think about the title for a moment and you will begin to realize how one thought starts you thinking about a subject and then another follows with some kind of pattern that matches the first thought and before you know it you are on a path of thought that either helps you to feel really good or really bad.

Thoughts are truly a pattern. We have so many of them streaming constantly so we are always thinking of something.

The important thing about this is how are those thoughts making you feel? This is the key to where you are at mentally and physically because with thoughts we picture everything, feel everything, so these thoughts are constantly affecting our well-being.

Be aware always of where your thoughts are taking you. Be careful to keep those thoughts the best they can be so that you control how you feel.

Just take a moment to look at where you are and how your thoughts got you to this point.

• Are you angry and dissatisfied?
• Are you unhappy and downhearted?
• Are you still thinking of something that is in the past and over with?
• Are you still blaming a person, place, or circumstance for an issue in your life?

If any of these are true I can honestly say I bet your health is suffering, your daily life is unhappy and you are not moving forward in a way that would help you.

If any of this is true I would challenge you today to change your thoughts for the better. It is most certainly a choice that you can make to reach for thoughts that are positive about yourself and your life so that your mind and body respond in a way that helps you in every aspect.

Change is good for the soul and changing your thought process to feel happy and content, to be grateful for all good things in your life, and to realize how much there is to be thankful for is a huge step forward to knowing the joy you deserve every day.
