Day One of Positivity!

So as you may have read in the last post,

I am striving to have a more positive attitude.

Starting this week and then hopefully

realizing what it takes to be more positive and then becoming a positive person.

[It's another new year's resolution!]

Well, today was day one and I decided to do a quick update.

It is kind of amazing to me that despite how crazy things can be positivity is possible!

There are so many times today I was ready to break down and give up,

but as I did my best to realize that the little things aren't a big deal, 

and that whatever may have gone wrong,

through Christ there is hope for a brighter future,

and that's where the positivity and optimism comes from.

Another lesson I realized throughout the day is that selfishness creates pessimism.

At the times where I was most focused on myself is when I had the worst attitude,

but the moments when I let the concerns of others be in place before me is when I found the most joy and happiness through out the day!

By no means was I one hundred percent optimistic and positive throughout the day, 

or am I anywhere close to being so.

I just am grateful for the lessons I learned today and hope to learn many more as I continue on this positive journey!
