Another twist (but not my ankle this time)

Friday, June 4, 2010

The power of positive thought is said to have unheralded benefits.  Last week when I felt that my week would only get worse, it did, because I thought it would and I let it. 

Today is another day and the positive attitude I have maintained for the last week has paid off and last week seems like a distant memory.  Order has been restored and I am able to function again without the bitterness I carried earlier last week.

The music was pumping on my ipod this morning on the way to uni. I am wearing my new gumboots and it is pouring rain today in Sydney (AND yes I have managed to fit my sprained ankle into a boot!) AND it is the last day of semester!!  I have stepped in every possible puddle I could find today - much to my childish delight.  Speaking of childish delight - how cute is this pic below? I saw two little girls in their raincoats walking to school this morning and it was so sweet!


Despite the huge uphill battle ahead of me in terms of preparation for exams, I'm banking on the power of positive thought to keep the confidence and momentum going so that come exam time, I'm feeling as good as I do today.

Happy weekend - I've got plenty of study to do (starting tonight).

BTW - I do not believe in that book/video "The Secret" or anything of that kind, I'm just suggesting you have control around how you react to situations to improve it them (which is entirely to your advantage).  I'm not suggesting I changed my thinking to bring me a nice new car or anything  but that would be fun too ;)

Oh and here is an iphone pic of my boots.

What a great post! And thank you for making me feel the same way. My week has not been the best of weeks, but after reading this, it will allow me to put a positive feeling into my thoughts, and concentrate on the wonderful things happening this weekend.

I agree, all you need to do is think positively and your mood will instantly shift out of that negative territory.

Nice boots!

p.s. Is the new SATC movie worthy of a write up blog post? Would love to hear what you thought!

Snappystreet - glad to know I'm not the only one who has those weeks.

Thanks Em.

Yes - I am writing one as we speak actually. I loved it.
