Remember
when you were kid and you had contorted your face into some silly
visual concoction and, invariably, an adult said something like...”you
better watch out, your face might stick like that”?
That
saying came to mind recently as I was pondering how some people seem to
be smiling even when they’re not...and others seem to be hiding a
frown...even when they’re smiling.
It occurred to me how profoundly that warning applies to my attitude and general approach to life.
“If
my attitude, in this moment, got stuck like this...what would life be
like?” I’ll tell you that a lot of times the future would not look very
bright!
A
moment of negativity doesn’t mean I’m a negative person...but moments
add up. When it all adds up, what kind of person am I? Am I encouraging
others and spurring them on to love and good works? Or am I draining the
life out of them?
“You better watch out, your attitude might get stuck like that!”
What
goals have you set this week? And what one thing are you doing today to
reach that goal? Let me know if there is ANYTHING I can do to encourage
you or help you reach your goal!
And remember “tomorrow is always fresh with no mistakes in it!” :)
