Your Glass Is Half Full!
a change in their lives that they didn't want, such as death or divorce, negative feelings start setting in. These people start looking at everything in their lives with a "glass half empty" attitude. Are you doing that? Are you looking at every aspect in your life with a critical eye? Are you finding that you are dissatisfied with everything in your life? Are you wondering why you don't have more? Do you look around you and only see everything you don't have? We all want more. We want more for us, more for our children. We see the best on the rich and famous and we want that for ourselves. Realistically we all know that it isn't possible. Yet we are still hoping, buying lottery tickets by the millions. Some how we equate money with happiness. When we see those rich and famous people with their big white smiles.... they sure do look happy! Of coarse money can't hurt! We should always try to improve ourselves, our lives in every way, personally and monetarily. But these things don't happen overnight, it takes time to build and rebuild. In the meantime you must be happy with your life the way it is now. You must look at your life and say, "If this is all there is, I am happy, I am content." By always looking at what you don't have, you are living a dissatisfied life. You can continue to live your life this way but you won't have a happy or content life. You will always be saying, " When I get this I'll be happy." Most people with this attitude are still unhappy when they get what they want. They are still dissatisfied. This current achievement doesn’t mean anything to them anymore. They have already seen something else they want and they are striving for that. Even after a traumatic experience like death or divorce, you must look at the positive side of your life. Don't continually look at what you don't have in your life, there really isn’t any point to that, this attitude is non-productive. Look at what you DO have! Write down on a piece of paper everything in your life that you like. Write down everything in your life that is going well for you. Some of these positive points would be, your children, your health, your family, and your friends. You can expand on that. Get all negativity out of your mind! Write down everything you like about yourself personally. Your kindness, your strength, your compassion, your intelligence. Include what you think is the smallest detail. If it’s part of your life then there isn’t any small detail. Do you have nice eyes? Put that down! Watch your list grow!!! Keep this list and review it every time you feel dissatisfied. Over time you will not need to look at the list on paper, you will have the security of knowing what a wonderful blessed person you really are! Your glass is not only half full, it’s filling up fast!! About the Author
