This morning I've found myself feeling a little down. That happens sometimes. Amazingly, I am not always happy. Occasionally I get discouraged and my internal negativity tapes play a little louder than usual. Some of that is going on today.

What helps: remembering my many, many tools for this. Hitting the exercise hard, but not so hard that I pull or break something. Listening to my fears and speaking them to someone I trust. Allowing them to be and simply accepting them until they shift and change---always, if I do not grasp at them, they will become something else.

And of course, redirecting myself towards the many good things and people in my life: I am very fortunate, and since you get more of what you focus on, I think I'll focus on that.

You're so right, and I think it works in both directions, negative and positive. If you focus on your worries, you get more. If you focus on the happy things, you are able to see more opportunities for even more happy things. It's like a filter for "good" or for "bad."

p.s.

I borrowed that "focus" quote for my post today. Hope you don't mind, eh? (Gave you credit for it.)

I suppose that if we didn't have sadness and frustration and grimness in our lives, we wouldn't notice the joy.

Ed says it's pretty rare that you're not happy.
