Regaining Positivity

 Some days it's sooo hard to be positive, to get that positivity back when it fails, when a careless remark causes your heart to break and all positive thoughts to flee. 

>Insert depressive thoughts here<

STOP!

Before depression overtakes, it's time to reach out. Seek out things or people  that make you happy or do some research on how to lift yourself up. 

I know depression is sometimes a comfort place, if that doesn't sound too weird, but it is something easy to wallow in. 

DON'T!

Step out of the swamp that is depression and negativity and shake yourself off and look around. Seek nature, friends, hobbies and if you don't feel like it...TOUGH! Do it anyway. Seek your path and take a chance on finding something to make you feel better. 

There are so many self help books out there a quick google search will pull up lots of suggestions. I think if you go this way you kind of need to try them on for size. Don't discount them just because one didn't speak to you. I've read/listened to a few and some resonated and others left me dry. 

One thing most books have in common is that old Law of Attraction rule. Believe it to be true and it will become true. Then replay, repeat and imagine it already happened. 

What is it you want? Insert here; 

I am happily ___________ my new ___________. 

Now fill in the blanks with "driving, living in, working,"  my new "car, house, job." 

I also think it helps to use words like "dream house" "Awesome car" and other positive words that mean something to you. 

Let's give it a try for a month. Everyday say your new reality. Several times a day. Make it a mantra.

So what's your wish? 

Tell it to the Universe or God or whatever you imagine the higher power or energy source  is out there. Say it everyday no matter how you're feeling. Say it out loud, or in your head or write it down and carry it with you. 

Let me know if it works. 

Little Book of Dreams

 One of the prime recommendations in all that manifesting stuff is to write it down. See it, believe it and make it happen. 

I think keeping that belief alive in your heart is one of the hardest parts of manifesting. We all have good and bad days, ups and downs and everyday worries. It's part of our nature. It's stuff we're bombarded with every time we turn on the TV. If the last two years have taught us anything it's that we just have to muddle through the mess to come out on the other side. 

"We'll figure this out."  

One of my favorite sayings and I think I must have gotten it from my mother. Her life wasn't easy but she was always positive. She believed money always came when you needed it. That things work out one way or the other. Of course she had all those Mom related worries, but she was overall a positive person. 

So I've got this "Little Book of Dreams" now to record those manifestations every morning. I'm writing it down and making it happen. 

What's your favorite manifesting tool? Do you write it down? Chant it? Pray? Or just send your wishes into the universe?  Let's share it & hopefully inspire others.
