Surrounded by doom and gloom

How in the world are you suppose to get in a Happy Zone when you are surrounded or should I say incased in a cloud of gloom and doom? The answer may not be clearly seen but unless you look for it you will never find it. You wouldn't feel doomed or always gloomy if you flushed out those negative thoughts and gave positive thoughts room to get in. A change in your life can only happen if something changes.

Girl Scout cookies

As I watched a group of Girl Scouts selling their famous cookies, it brought a warmth to my heart to see people stop by with a smile for them. In a time when it seems the world had no compassion for anyone. The Girl Scouts brought out their sleeping caring hearts. That was beautiful to watch over and over again as it was hard for people to ignore. Although going door to door is too dangerous, the Girl Scouts still safely bring a smile.:)

Flush out the anger

When all you think about is everything that has happened in your past that angers you, then anger is all you will feel in your present. And guess what? Every word that comes out of your mouth because that is all you are filled with, will be full of anger, that is then spread onto others as you go through your day. Now just like spreading the flu, that anger is spread, that you started throughout our streets from one person to another. If you want to stop the insanity we see on our streets you first have to flush the anger out of your mind. "JUST FLUSH IT"

Over and over again

You need to realize that when something makes you angry it puts a strain on your body and mind. If you think about it over and over again then over and over again you put your mind and body under stress. The damage that it does is done over and over again. Stop getting angry over something that happened only once. If you think of it 100 times then 100 times you will feel it, live it, and pay the consequences that will affect your over all well being over and over again. "JUST FLUSH IT"

Roll with it

If someone steals part of your lunch, are you going to refuse to eat the other half and starve? Of course not you still got to eat. Take what's left after the economy has devastated you personally and financially and carry on. If someone steals your joy take comfort in knowing how to laugh. In life you just got to roll with it and adjust.

The first sign of anger

Too much stress in your mind will put your body in physical distress. When you feel your jaw tightening recognize that as the first sign that you are too angry for your own good. Stop it before your jaw locks tight as you grit your teeth and the veins in your neck pop out. Stop it before it clamps down on your forehead like a vice that takes over your brain function. Stop it before your heart gets squeezed physically by your muscles and organs that are reacting to the anger. Stop it when your jaw starts tightening before your heart stops because you are too uptight.

Don't let others knock you down

Instead of allowing others to brainwash you into thinking that they know you better than you know yourself, use your brain to wash away your doubts and make your mind up about what you want to do and build on that the foundation for your life, your future goals. Set your own standards that you will live by that will keep you on track to success. You will stand on your own if you stop letting others knock you down.
