I try to remember to be grateful for everything- the more I practice this, the longer my list gets! And I have noticed how infectious attitudes are- I used to work with a nurse I privately called a 'psychic vampire'. By the end of our shifts, I was drained and cranky!
I think that positive attitudes are contagious. I have been thinking for the past 10 years or so that people seem to be nicer and more courteous than they were before. I finally realized that this was because I was a nicer and more positive person and they were reacting to my smiles or greetings.
There is an affirmation which goes: Every day and in every way, I get better and better and better. Just saying it to yourself can help it become true. :-)
I also remember the phrase from Bambi, "If you can't say something nice, don't say nothin' at all." I think it was Thumper who said it.
I have such a hard time counting my blessings.I do indeed have so much to be thankful for;a saying that goes round in my head frequently... There but for the grace of GOD,go I...
