So I actually wrote this one on Christmas Eve, with the intentions of getting on here and posting it, as well as the full intentions of doing my readings on Christmas day...buttttt I got busy :( anyway here goes.
So I was a bad child, I brought my book, notebook, pen and highlighter to work. But its Christmas Eve for craps sake! Anyway I was reading and the quote Arnold Palmer had in his golfing locker sticks to me. It goes:
If you think you're beaten, you are
If you think that you dare not, you don't
If you'd like to win, but think you can't,
It's almost certain you won't.
If you think you'll lose, you've lost,
For out in the world you'll find
Success begins with a fellow's will.
It's all in the state of mind.
Life's battles don't always go
To the stronger or faster man;
But sooner or later the man who wins
Is the man who thinks he can.
How I think effects how I feel and how I will perform. On day three of this positive thinking I noticed I didn't dread getting up to go to work, which for the record puts me normally in a pretty shitty mood. It was surprising to me that the positive thinking at night wakes me with brighter spirits. So even though I'm hand writing this at noon, I won't upload it till just before bed. I'm sure I'll Mind Gym some more..but if three days makes me wake up happier, maybe 7-10 makes me stay happier. I also need to figure out what my positive thinking goals will be for tomorrow. I really need to assess what at work makes me tick, and figure out how to turn it into positive thinking.
Merry Christmas Eve
