Positive Thought for the Day

I will be trying to put Postivities on daily. A lot of self help authors say to repeat Postivities daily and put them in the present as if it is already a reality not in the future because the subconsious mind will keep what your working toward in the future. So I will be posting Postivities that you can repeat daily

Positivity
The more I give, the more I receive, and the happier I feel.

I am a valuable and unique individual. I am loving and powerful. Each
day I get better and better.

I claim my divine inheritance of love, health, success, prosperity and
joy. I have more than enough and share my blessings with others.



"I cannot give you the formula for success, but I can give you
the formula for failure—which is: Try to please everybody."

-- Herbert Bayard Swope


"No one lives long enough to learn everything they need to learn
starting from scratch. To be successful, we absolutely,
positively have to find people who have already paid the price to
learn the things that we need to learn to achieve our goals."

-- Brian Tracy



What makes 100%? What makes up 100% in life?

Here's a little mathematical formula that might help you
answer these questions:

If:
ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ is
represented as:
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20
21 22 23 24 25 26.

Then:

H-A-R-D-W-O-R-K
8+1+18+4+23+15+18+11 = 98%

and
K-N-O-W-L-E-D-G-E
11+14+15+23+12+5+4+7+5 = 96%

But,

A-T-T-I-T-U-D-E
1+20+20+9+20+21+4+5 = 100%

So, one can conclude with mathematical certainty that
while hard work and knowledge will get you close,
Attitude will get you ALL THE WAY.

"Get your eyes, words, and thoughts OFF of what-is,
and put them purely on what you now want. The

Get ok
One way to lower your stress level is to get away from it all. Another way is to get ok with it all.
Stress becomes more stressful the more you fight against it. Keep in mind, though, that you don't have to fight it.

You can actually choose to welcome and accept whatever is going on. As soon as you do, you put yourself in a position of power and control.

By accepting the stressful situation instead of running away or fighting, you give yourself more positive options. You become able to make use of whatever is going on and to direct it toward a worthwhile purpose.

Accepting the presence of a difficult situation does not mean that you're in favor of it having it continue. It means that you're ready to clearly see and deal with reality.

Instead of making the stress worse by fighting it, step calmly and confidently forward to make the best of it. Choose not to let it get to you, and you'll be able to accomplish so very much more.

-- Ralph Marston

















Joke

Red Wagon
It was the day after Christmas at a church in San Francisco. Pastor Mike was looking at the nativity scene outside when he noticed the baby Jesus was missing from the figures.

Immediately, Pastor Mike turned towards the church to call the police. But as he was about to do so, he saw little Jimmy with a red wagon, and in the wagon was the figure of the little infant, Jesus.

Pastor Mike walked up to Jimmy and said, "Well, Jimmy, where did you get the little infant?"Jimmy replied, "I got him from the church."

"And why did you take him?"

With a sheepish smile, Jimmy said, "Well, about a week before Christmas I prayed to little Lord Jesus. I told him if he would bring me a red wagon for Christmas, I would give him a ride around the block in it."

From The Daily Motivator

Mystery
There is extraordinary value in knowledge. And there is also much value in what you do not know.
For in the unknown, there are possibilities that have no restrictions. When contemplating the unknown, your imagination has no limits.

Though the unknown can be frightening, it can also be magnificently beautiful and inspiring. You can put into it whatever you wish.

In the realm of things you do not know, there is plenty of room for the joy of discovery and the enlightenment of learning. There is ample space to dream, to envision, and to grow.

To act as if you already know everything is to deny yourself all the good things that are yet to be imagined and discovered. Mystery gives life a depth and richness that you would not want to be without.

As each moment passes, make good use of all the things you know. And be thankful that you don't know it all.

-- Ralph Marston

I Know Something Good About You.

Wouldn't this old world be better,

If the folks we meet would say:

I know something good about you,

And then treat us just that way !





Wouldn't it be fine and dandy,

If each hand-clasp warm and true,

Carried with its assurance -

I know something good about you !





Wouldn't things be more pleasant,

If the good that's in all of us,

Were the only things about us,

That folks bothered to recall !





Wouldn't life be lots more happy,

If we praise the good we see !

For there's such a lot of goodness,

In the worst of you and me.





Wouldn't it be nice to practice,

This fine way of thinking too;

You know something good about me,

I know something good about you !

From The Daily Motivator

The whole of life
Everything has an influence on everything else. All the seemingly separate aspects of life are tightly intertwined.
When setting priorities and making choices, consider the whole of life. Attempting to play off one thing against another will never work for very long.

When you shortchange one part of your life, other things suffer. When you work to add value somewhere in your world, that value is reflected in other places too.

Eventually, the good, sincere, authentic things you do will exhibit their influence throughout your world. There's a way to live through each experience that will enhance and improve all the other experiences.

Think of your decisions not as discreet events, but rather as interrelated expressions of who you truly are. Realize that each action has an influence that spreads far beyond its original context.

Live as though the universe is connected to itself in ways that you cannot begin to imagine. Know that what you do is not just for here and now, that it contributes everywhere and always to the whole of life.

-- Ralph Marston

One little corner
There's one little corner of your life where you can make an improvement today. Take the opportunity to do so.
There's one little corner of the world where you can make a difference right now. Go ahead and be the person to make that difference.

One little corner may not seem like much. One little corner may not appear to be worth the trouble.

And then you start looking for other little corners where you can work the same magic. One little corner after another, you begin to have a major positive impact.

To achieve great things requires no great effort, just a modest effort repeated again and again. Start right now by improving one little corner, and you're on your way to change the world.

Joke

Learning to Talk
There was a man who couldn't talk and he wanted to learn how.

So he went to an oprera and heard the singer go "Meeeeeeeeeeemeeeeeemeeeeeeee."

Next he went to a pottery store and heard a salesman going "Forks and knives, forks and knives."

Next, in the street he heard a kid go "He stole my lollipop!"

He walked around all day learning these phrases. While he was practicing he accidently walked on a murder scene and practically tripped over the dead guy in the street. Before he knows it, he's talking to a policeman who asks "Who killed this man?"

"Meeeeemeeeeemeeeeee"

"Well, how did you kill him?"

"Forks and knives, forks and Knives"

"But why did you kill him?"

"He stole my lollipop!"

"Okay, you're coming with me mister!"

Life itself
Appreciate beauty, and suddenly you are the beauty. Experience joy, and you become the joy.
There are times in your past that can bring a smile to your face whenever you recall them. Though those particular circumstances have long passed, the joy from them is still with you.

That joy continues to live within you. It is a part of who you are.

Because you are who you are, joy is able to experience itself again and again. Beauty is able to know how wonderfully beautiful it is.

Through your life, love is able to feel its presence. Truth is able to know that it is so.

You are life itself. And in this moment, the magnificent possibilities beckon.

Joke

New Flight Attendant
An airline captain was breaking in a new flight attendant. The route they were flying had a layover in another city. Upon their arrival, the captian showed the flight attendant the best places for airline personnel to eat, shop, and stay overnight.

The next morning, as the pilot was preparing the crew for the day's route, he noticed the new flight attendant was missing. He knew which room she was in at the hotel and called her up wondering what happened.

She answered the phone, crying, and said she couldn't get out of her room.

"You can't get out of your room?" the captain asked, "Why not?"

The flight attendant replied, "There are only three doors in here." She sobbed, "one is the bathroom, one is the closet, and one has a sign on it and says "Do Not Disturb!'"





Ice Fishing
An old man walked out onto a frozen lake on a bitter cold winter day. He drilled a hole in the ice, sat on his bucket, put his fishing line in the water and eagerly waited for a fish to bite.

He was there for almost five hours without even a nibble when a young boy walked out, drilled a hole in the ice and sat on his bucket not far from the old man. It only took about one minute and BAM! A huge walleye bit his hook and the boy pulled in the fish.

The old man couldn't believe it and figured it was just luck. Yet, the boy put his fish line in again and within just two minutes he pulled in another huge walleye!

This went on and on until finally the old man couldn't stand it any more. He hadn't caught a fish all day. He went to the boy and said, "Boy, I've been here nearly all day without even a nibble. You have been here only a few minutes and have caught TEN huge fish! How do you do it?"

The boy said, "Oo af o rep ra rums rm."

"What," asked the old man?

Again the boy said, "Oo af o rep ra rums rm.”

Freezing and impatient the old man yelled "Look, I can't understand a word you are saying."

So, the boy took off his gloves, spit a clump of stuff into his hands and said, "You have to keep the worms warm!!"
