This
post is here just to encourage you to focus on something good!
Sometimes
life sucks. It’s really that simple. Life can be downright
dreadful. Just when you’re expecting it to go one way, BAM, it turns left and
by left I mean, you blew your budget, broke a nail, dropped your lunch, and
found out your cousin needs a kidney all in the same 3 hour span. Like a whole
bunch of random things that each by themselves wouldn’t be so bad but they just
popped up ALL AT ONCE and you’re like, LIFE! CHILL YO! You have to bring
out your rehearsed New York slang on life so it can stop and give you a moment
to breathe.
*takes
deep breath*
Now you take one.
I will wait.
Go ahead.
Life
be trippin’. The slang was intentional lol.
But one thing is true, and I say this often;
just like things can change for the bad, they can get better. In the midst of a tough time, all you need is
that one piece of good news to keep you going.
But what do you do when you cannot find the good in your present
happenings? When it’s not available, I want
to encourage you to choose something good to focus on.
I am asked how I manage to stay so positive. If you ask my husband, he knows the real lol. I am not ALWAYS positive. That’s impossible. But I take my moment to complain or cry or
both and then I focus on something good.
I speak what I want to see and write it down. I do not focus on the negative. Unfavorable events will always happen. Saying statements like, “oh what else can go
wrong,” simply invite more negative activity because it’s what you’re speaking
and focusing on.
Focus on something good.
What is a goal that you have?
Where is a vacation destination you will
visit?
What compliment did you receive lately?
Who do you have in your life that is
irreplaceable?
If you have no answers for these
questions, I encourage you to go be the things you feel you are lacking for someone
else. You will not regret it when the
focus isn’t getting something in return but simply giving someone else something
good to focus on.
