Be in the Top 1% in Mindset – Leadership – Personal and Professional Growth
Horrible things happen to all of us, things beyond our control. But developing winning traits can change the questions we ask when we meet challenges. We stop asking, “Why me?” Instead, we ask, “What steps can I take today to make things better?” ~ www.jaywren.com

“The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.” Marcus Aurelius.
How do you direct your mind for better thoughts? A gratitude list is a good place to start.
“If you’re growing a garden, you need to pull out the weeds, but flowers will die if all you do is pick weeds. They need sunshine and water. People are the same.” From “The Score Takes Care of Itself” by Bill Walsh on the importance of Positive Coaching

“You wouldn’t worry so much about what others think of you if you realized how seldom they do.”
― Eleanor Roosevelt
I don’t worry about what other people think. I can’t control what people carry around in their minds. The mental obsession over what other people think doesn’t improve how people see me. Additionally, I can think about better things, the good things in my life and solutions for making my life better.
“Give every day the chance to become the most beautiful day of your life.” Mark Twain
I decide every day what kind of day I am going to have. I can either dread it or stay in the present movement and only think about things as they happen.
Depending on what was going on the day before and what I expect to happen today, I may get out of bed feeling frustrated, grateful, full of great expectation, or not aware of my feelings at all.
My instinct is to grab a cup of coffee and sit down at my desk and dive into my work. This is not a good routine. If I want to love my day, I need to clear my head and decide that I am going to be happy and grateful. Making a gratitude list is a good place to start to brighten my day.
