” When confronted with life’s challenges, take a few moments to appreciate them for what they really are: opportunities to define ourselves as well as constructing the person for which we will be remembered! These moments will indeed allow us to show the world what we are made of; our legacies and triumphs forever forged into history!”

5 Tips On How To Use Motivational Thoughts To Stay Happy

1. Choose your company well… Associate yourself with people that have positive and motivational thoughts. That may sound like a cliche to you. But PLEASE don’t dismiss it. Be VERY selective when it comes to choosing your friends as they can set the wrong course for your future.
2. Be intentional. Don’t waste your time making friends with people that can bring you down. The right friends can trigger the right motivational thoughts for you. I don’t care how positive you are, people can have a negative impact on you.
3. Monitor your thoughts. Catch yourself thinking negatively and reverse those thoughts to positive and motivational thoughts. You are constantly thinking. It’s your duty to monitor your thoughts. Every now and then, wake up and catch yourself thinking. Deliberately think some motivational thoughts. Think of something pleasant… Something you want to happen to you. By default, we are always thinking what we don’t want to happen to us.
4. Read something positive. That’s right! I’m asking to read positive books, listen to CDs, and watch DVDs. I guarantee you if you put a bunch of CDs in your car and listen to them to and from work, your attitude will be different. They will cause you to think motivational thoughts. You will be more productive. Try it.
5. Plant the right seeds then watch for the weeds. Your mind is like a backyard. If you neglect it, weeds to take over and ruin it. Weeds are automatic and so it negative thoughts. You are have pull those suckers out. You see, negligence is really bad. I remember seeing a few weeds three years ago in my backyard. I neglected to pull them out. Guess what? Now they are trees that I need to pay someone to uproot for me. Do you see my point? Zap the negative thoughts out early. Then, plant a bunch of positive and motivational thoughts to overtake the negative ones.
