Triumph Over Hardships

Triumph Over Hardships
by Jane Powell on March 24, 2010

Think life is hard, and it's hard!

When you dwell on your problems or what you don't have, you generate negative energy, and chances are your life won't change for the better.

Why not focus on the possibilities?

When you make up your mind to do something, you'll find you can.

Instead of thinking about barriers in life, reach out after opportunities.

Instead of seeing a locked door, see a key.

Instead of thinking about the rough mountain climb ahead, see yourself standing on the summit.

Today, resolve to let go of the struggles and embrace your potential. Your shift in attitude will shift your life from the shadows into the sunshine.

No Mail For 2 Days!

One of the things that I most definitely have to work on is worry!

Even my astrological sign says that I do tend to worry alot!

I did not get any mail for 2 days! A lot of people would probably consider this a blessing because it would have meant no bills and no advertisements! But for me it made me worry. The thoughts that came in my mind was that 'well maybe the mail stopped delivering here' - now why would I think of something like that!

Instead of dwelling on the negative aspect of my worry - what I'm supposed to do in a situation like this is to turn this around.

Instead of worrying about not getting any mail I should be glad to know that my mail is in order and that I haven't done anything to cancel my mail. I just didn't get any mail for two days.

On day three - I got mail!

I Decided To Start This Blog Because.....

I have been having such a bad day!

There are so many things that I want in my life right now that I do not have right now and not having them is making me crazy, angry and bitter! But I know that this is not the way that I should be feeling.

What I should be feeling is gratitude for the things that I DO have and not focus on what I don't have. I am supposed to focus on what it is that I DO want and not focus on what I don't want. Now the fact that I know what I am supposed to be doing helps but I have to continue to work on those negative thoughts that keep coming into my head.

What I want is wealth, financial abundance, security and not having to worry about my bills! Now this sentence tells me a lot. I have written down what I do want but in the same sentence I have "not having to worry about my bills". Now I know that the solution for this is to focus on what I do want - which is finacial wealth and abundance - and not focus on what I don't want which is my worrying about bills. The solution for that is for me to focus on having financial wealth and abundance so that I have the money to pay my bills.

I have seen many times online and from other sources that one should keep a journal and that is exactly why I started this blog.

I know that there are many other people who are in the same situation as I am and want to be out of this kind of situation.

So hopefully my journey will help you on your own journey too!
