Good morning and hello there again from Tim, in my home office in Cottage Grove, MN where it is a chilly 28 degrees! Where are you Spring? Hope this email finds you doing great and had a wonderful weekend. Wanted to share Tim's Time Outs with you again.
WHEN LIFE SEEMS DIFFICULT:
When live seems difficult, it's because you are comparing the way things are to how good you know they can be. That's actually a GOOD thing, because it connects you with our positive expectations.
Each time you encounter what feels like difficulty, REMIND yourself to also notice your positive expectations and possibilities. Let the feeling of difficulty lead to a feeling of empowerment.
You know, without a doubt, that things can be better...and knowing that, you are just one step away from beginning to make things better. Yes, you could choose to become dismayed about the difficulties, yet a much more powerful choice is to become excited about the positive possibilities.
The challenges(my mom always said challenges are opportunities for growth) and difficulties can give you something very valuable. They can give you specific ways to make a positive difference.
When life seems difficult...respond with GRATITUDE and ENTHUSIAMSM! Then get busy transforming those difficulties into POSITIVE, MEANINGFUL VALUE!~Ralph Marston
"In the midst of hate, I found there was within me, a invincible love. In the midst of tears, I found there was within me a invincible smile. In the midst of chaos, I found there was within me a invincible calm. In the midst of winter, I found there was within me a invincible summer...and that makes me happy. For it says that NO MATTER HOW HARD the world pushes against me, within me, there's something stronger-something better, PUSHING RIGHT BACK" ~Albert Camus
Today and this week, may your smile be big, your gratitude and enthusiasm be plentiful and your attitude be positive! Have an awesome week!
All the best,
Tim
