shift

it is amazing the difference in mood you can have when you just shift your perspective. sure, the bad things are still there but when you change your mindset to fixate on the good things and the ways you can fix the bad you become a MUCH more content person.

rarely do we concentrate on the good and the skills it took to get said good outcome. research shows we analyze everything negative because we realize what we did or didnt do to get there. our brain either consciously or subconsciously feels guilty for doing poorly. when is the last time we realized what we did to get a positive outcome? why doesnt our consciousness feel amazing? and if it does, why is the high so short before we focus on a low? i dont, for the life of me know why we are such a cynical society, when we're built on the foundation of "the american dream". [The American Dream is a subjective term usually implying a successful and satisfying life.] i realize the lows are what pushes us on, and helps us achieve greater success, but WHY are we shortchanging ourselves when we do achieve that success?

the better we feel, the more we do. i think wed all be in a much better place, if we learned to shift our focus and remain positive.
