Let me share with you a strategy I use to

avoid being flooded with feelings

of gloom, depression and fear.

Every day is a good day.

But when I'm experiencing a day full
of frustrations, I don't call it a bad day,
I call it an "interesting" day.

This habit keeps me from being overwhelmed
with negative emotions.

Why does this work?
Repetitive thoughts and words
create feelings.
Those feelings create a positive Or
negative behavior pattern.
If I tell myself it's a bad day,
I began to feel defeated And exhausted.

If my day has one issue after another,
If I tell myself it's an "interesting" day
this keeps my open to gratitude, hope,
solutions,
Resiliency, and sometimes even a
sense of humor.
I try to monitor my words when
I'm feeling in a slump so I can
avoid those "knot in your stomach -
stressful - Anxious - sickening -
I'm losing it" feelings.

I had one of those "interesting" days
recently and reminded myself to Stop,
do some deep breathing and re-group.

If you're having an "interesting" day,
let these words minister to you.

Some times the children are
screaming, the boss is irritating,
the traffic Is slow and
the bill collectors won't go.

Some times you feel strong
and confident.

Some Times you're full of regrets
and wonder where all the time went.
Sometimes You feel like you want to
give up.

Sometimes you're too tired to move
'cause you have so much to do.

Some times you're lonely and
wonder if love will ever come.

Some times you're glad to be Alone
to think your own thoughts.

Some times life is easy and
sometimes hard.

Today be grateful that you've
come this far.
Breathe in peace, faith and hope.

All the answers...I do not know.
But I'm here to say, count your Blessings.

Don't give up.

You can make it. Little miracles
happen each day.

Don't miss them because you're focusing
on your pain, frustrations and fears.

Constantly work on the five main things
you need to

1- live in peace and harmony
2- faith
3- family and friends,
4- finances, Good health
And 5- your life purpose.

Without these in your life....
life can drive You crazy
