What Are You Grateful For?

Growing up I was a very selfish and negative individual.  I never set out to become selfish or negative, but that is still where I wound up.  Why is that?  The answer is simple.  We live in a selfish and negative world.  I did not have to set out to become selfish or negative.  I simply had to not be intentional about not becoming selfish and negative and the downstream current of the world just led me there.  Is this something you struggle with at all?  If so would you like to know what you can do about it?

Do You Talk To Yourself?

This probably sounds like an odd question, but I will ask it any way, “Do you talk to yourself?”  You are probably thinking that is an odd question.  Most of society thinks that talking to yourself is a bad thing and there are definitely many instances where it is.  When I ask this I am not referring to someone who is having a psychological break from reality.  The context I am asking this question in refers to speaking specific positive messages to yourself.  You may or may not be aware of this, but most successful people talk to themselves regularly.

You Are Right

We live in a day and age where everyone has very strong opinions about politics, religion, finances, parenting, etc.  If you ever turn on the TV or check your social media you can hardly escape it.  There are “talk shows” where the left argues with the right and the right argues with the left.  As time has gone on I have become more and more aware of something that is happening as a result of all of this arguing – nothing improves.
