Awaken Your Day - July 26, 2018 - Count Successes

AYD - I like to practice what I speech. So please accept this AYD revisit this morning as a practice that should be repeatedly used. Like a new tool in the tool box. The more we use it- the more tough situations are handled with ease because our personal skill has grown. Good Morning.

"Sometimes I lie awake at night, and I ask, 'Where have I gone wrong?'
Then a voice says to me, 'This is going to take more than one night.'"
- Charles M. Schultz

Sound familiar? When we find ourselves in a rough time, we do not realize it but out of nowhere, this magic shovel has appears, and in our regretful or worrisom thoughts we do not realize that on our worry hill, we are digging a hole. I dare say we could be called professional diggers. And the hole gets deeper. The point of view gets darker. The tool we have is wrong, the direction we are going is incorrect. We need to turn the blueprint around.

Often what starts as just a rut we are walking along in the path, becomes deeper as we trudge along with our head down and our focus on the trench evolving in our heart and mind. At these times we need to reset, refresh and refocus. Never lose touch with a little list of successes you have climbed to in this life. This list will be the rope to help you climb up.

Find three or five or ten times and events where you Have Gone Right in your life. These times are the fuel we need to keep exploring and to keep on top of the edge that tough times pull us so close to. Three, Five, and Ten. Why not Three times you Got it Right, Five feelings you have when you are successful and Ten... Ten minutes whenever you need it to reflect on the Power Within you just found in your 3 and 5.
Just a thought, for a good morning.
Good morning, Greater Day. Greater You - throwing away the shovel.
