positive thinking

As the Dawn Breaks…..so did my attitude

As I got up with a little attitude today 🙂 , I looked out the window and saw the dawn breaking …..and today, it felt different.  Why? I don’t know? Was it because it was completely dark when I got up and I am witnessing the day getting lighter and brighter?  Was a revelation coming that I am about to receive?  I don’t know…….

First, I’m sick and tired – no, literally, I don’t feel well and I am exhausted and my normal sleeping like a baby routine was interrupted by an hour and half of being awake and no way getting back to sleep ?  And let me note, I LOVE my sleep so when there is some interruption, I’m not particularly happy.  🙂

But as I saw the dawn starting to break in my little attitude, a thought hit me…….it’s a start of another day and I GET TO BE IN IT, a part of it and simply put……. I woke up!  I don’t want the alternative, not at this point in my life as I am living each day to the fullest and enjoying the smallest of occurrences.

As many times throughout my life and especially through certain circumstances, I chose to think on the positive things, the things that encourage, lift up and the blessings I have versus what I don’t have. Believe me, it works even if you have to dig in and think of the blessings you have 🙂

So, thought for my day……another day……another blessing!

MOMENTOUS MONDAYS!

Making it a Momentous Monday!!!

Ok my friends……. we are embarking on making Monday’s Momentous.

First, the definition of momentous – 1) sufficiently great    2) important to be worthy of attention  3) noteworthy.

Second, the synonyms of momentous – notable, worth of attention, remarkable, important, of importance

Are they NOT powerful words and meanings?!  What did that do to you just reading those definitions?  A little different than what we are used to when we are thinking about Mondays, right?

But what if?

What if we started thinking about Monday’s in a different way? What if we didn’t have such a negative perception of Mondays? Where did that even come from anyway?

Why not make Mondays something different?

I can’t wrap my head around why we don’t embrace it at times as a beautiful day just because we are getting up!

Hold on please……. am I saying that I wake up every Monday so hoping to run into work and get my work on?   No! Not every Monday!    🙂 HOWEVER, sometimes I feel like that on a Wednesday, Thursday or Friday!  So, what’s the difference of waking up and charging the day or waking up and already can’t wait until nighttime?

Gratefulness………. gratefulness from our heart………. deep within our hearts….. that’s where its at my friends.  Gratefulness and thankfulness.

Ahhhhhhh, when we have that, it so changes our perception on just about everything we have, we are and what situation is going on in our life.  Yes, even the most challenging seasons in our life make us who we are and stronger.

What I do think we need to be reminded of are the great things we do have…………family, friends, loved ones, a job, the ability to work, think, grow, make money and so much more!

So, how can we make this a Momentous Monday?

Take time, sit and just think for a moment of the things you do have, the things you are thankful for, the things you couldn’t imagine your life without and some things we possibly take for granted.

If we learn to be thankful in the smallest of things, our attitudes will change to be thankful in the bigger things and possibly even the most challenging of times.

Food for thought!  Go ahead….. make today a Momentous Monday!  Hope your day is great!
