Last
week I talked about not having to be perfect, you can read that post HERE. It leads me on quite nicely to this week’s
post; how to have a good day.
Not
having to worry about being perfect 24-7 helps us to go with the flow and relax
our outlook on life. I attend a creative
writing class every Monday evening, where I have to read out my work to the
group. When I first started, I was terrified that my writing wasn’t
perfect, and I would be laughed out of
the class. What I failed to realise, my
fellow students are in the same position, we all want to improve on technique and find new ideas. I relaxed, and suddenly my writing improved
and I even got a few belly laughs from my homework piece – it was a good day!
We
very often forget to remind ourselves of all the good stuff in our life. It’s human nature to dwell on the negative
rather than focus on the positive. Of
course, when we linger on the negative talk this only increases the negativity we
attract into our daily life. My
favourite quote is ‘thoughts become things, pick good ones’. I try to live by this mantra.
