***Find Joy in the Little Things
Legacy signals
Legacy popularity: 1,640 legacy views
Recently I had a client ask me how I remain positive all the time. I believe that I am optimistic and positive because I choose to foster a mindset of gratitude and celebrate the littlest joys in life regularly throughout the moments in my day. My loved ones smile and shake their heads at the excitement, giddiness and sometimes outright goofiness I display as I celebrate life experiences that seem trivial, silly or ordinary. By choosing to greet life this way, I foster a positive mindset filled with hope, optimism and joy. Try it you might like it!

***WEIGHT LOSS
Oh, how I punish myself with New Year’s Resolutions. This year, for the 57th year in a row, I have decided to get fit, lose the fat shaped like an inflated inner tube around my abdomen, and not be afraid to take my shirt off in public this summer. Yeah, right. I can say that I am a warehouse of facts on nutrition, genetics, exercise, supplements, self-analysis and articles on losing the fat and getting ripped like the professionals. I still have self-image issues despite all of this knowledge.

***Nonjudgment
Many books, seminars, workshops, and meditations concentrate on the power of forgiveness. Even I have taught numerous workshops and written about forgiveness. Forgiveness allows us to let go of resentments and negative thinking that will eventually make us sick. The notion is that we have to forgive everyone who has harmed us, including ourselves. I have come to the realization that philosophy only scratches the surface and needs deeper analysis.

***PRACTICING NON-VIOLENCE
I had an experience with another driver in Atlanta, Ga. The driver had tailgated me for miles, and then passed me on the right of a four lane local road and cut me off at an intersection. I blared my horn at him to let him know how much I did not appreciate his aggressive driving. He got out of his car and started screaming at me and I actually thought I might have to defend myself. The traffic light turned green and he got back in his car and drove off at a dangerously high speed.
