Positive mental attitudes are not just for New Year's Day or Mondays, but for every day of the year. Like a campfire that has a good bed of coals to it, you don't need to have a ten-foot blaze of flames shooting forth at all times, but once the flames have gone down to embers, all you have to do to keep it hot is to add a little bit at a time. Our attitudes are the same. Being "on fire" all the time can be done, but it is work, and can get a bit irritating to those around us.
Instead of going "gang-busters" all the time, add a bit of fuel every day.
* Have a bit of quiet time to reflect each morning or evening before you head to bed to take assessment of where you are and how you are going about to get there.
* Find the good things to think about. If you are tired from working all day, be thankful that you have a job. If you are exhausted from mowing your yard, be thankful that you still have a home with a roof over your house. If your clothes are becoming more snug lately, have a grateful heart that you have plenty to eat.
* Hang around with other positive people. If all you do is hang around hateful, sullen folks, you too will soon become hateful and sullen. Other people can become an influence to you, so choose your friends wisely.
Keep the faith and keep working on getting out of credit card debt because you CAN do it! Have a GREAT day!
