Sunny Side Up....


Helen Keller once said,  Life is either a daring adventure or nothing!” Oh how true this is!! Do you live your life like it’s an adventure or like your just waiting for it to end… Ladies, do you realize how blessed you are each and every day when you open our eyes?  It’s a new opportunity to have another day to start over, to make new decisions, to make a difference to someone and to matter! I encounter people all the time that have something bad to say about everything,  It’s too cold outside!  Uggh, why did my day have to start off so bad?!” or “I hate my job so much!”

Look at things with new perspectives


Does this sound like you or someone you know? I have learned to see the beauty in life and I try my best to always look on the bright side because no matter how bad I may think things are, it could always be worse or I’m betting someone else has it rougher than me at that moment! Why not turn your complaints into compliments!
So it’s a little cold outside, well what a perfect opportunity to stay in and spend some time with your family or to relax and have some “me” time!  Your day started off bad, really, do I have to tell you how to turn this into a positive? So if it started off bad, well make sure it ends GREAT!! There are 24 hours in a day and maybe the first 3 or 4 didn’t go as you hoped but you still have plenty of time to turn the day around!  You hate your job? Who doesn’t but think about this, at least you have a job and can pay your bills, buy food and every now and then treat yourself to a cute pair of heels and as much as you may hate it, there has to be something you like about it, fins out what that is!
Never seeing the righter side of things will only make things harder for you, people won’t want to be around you because they’ll fear your rotten attitude toward life will bring them down and ruin a good time!
Ladies, now’s the time to step your game up! Every time you’re faced with negative thoughts about something, try to find at least 3 positive things about it and believe me, you’ll start to appreciate your life a little bit more! I have been living with this motto for a while and it completely turned my way of thinking upside down (in a good way)! I’m more in love with life and passionate about things, I see the bright side before the negativities have a chance to seeps in and when they do, I know how to counter them! This is your new challenge for today!

  4. I'm now following you from Weekend Wanderer. I just had a wake-up call last weekend, which has changed my perspective. I agree with you - try to look for the positive - it sure makes life more enjoyable. If you get the chance, check out my blog to read about what happened last weekend and you'll see what I mean - things could have turned out much differently (www.wiimom.blogspot.com). I feel lucky. Have a great weekend!
