Although some of these things may seem like a waste of time I think it is crucially important to continually remind ourselves of all the good that exists in the world.

Every day in magazines, on the news, and on the internet we are reminded of all the evil, terrible things that happen on a daily basis and when that is the only information that we take in, it is very easy to get bogged down by negativity.

The internet has all manners of information on it and if you want to be weighed down by negativity and hate, there is plenty of it out there. But if you choose to realize that there is just as much good out there, and you seek out those sites, you will find that your mind will suddenly be filled with great thoughts that bring you joy, new inspiration, and fond memories.

Realize the power that exists in your choices and your attitude. The power in attitude is the reason that two people can experience the exact same thing and one can be furious while the other can be smiling, shaking their head, and laughing.

Today, challenge yourself to be conscious of your thoughts. What are you letting occupy your mind? What thoughts are you allowing to dwell in your mind?

Start identifying the negative thoughts and stopping them before they ever become a complete thought. Then when you have a positive thought, don’t immediately squelch it out. Dwell on it, build it up in your mind, imagine how you could make it real and then go out and give it a shot!

Its incredible what simply making the effort can do for a person’s life!

What is your best positive thought today? Tell us in the comments below!
