Think Positive
Psalm 118:24 reads, “This is the day which the Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it.” The writer of this Psalm understood that if he was going to be a happy person, he was going to have to encourage himself. His determination however was that he was not going to allow his circumstances to determine his outlook on life.
Only you can decide for yourself if you are going to be a positive and happy person. There is much in the world to worry about and be sad about, but that does not mean that you have to live a sad or worried existence. It’s up to you to make the determination that you are going to be happy.
Happy people are contagious. When you look around your Family do you see happy people? If the family is happy and cheerful, it may well be that you are happy and cheerful. However, if they are discouraged and struggling to keep a smile on their face much of the time, you might take a long look at yourself in the mirror. Happiness is contagious
Enjoy life. We all have different interests, hobbies, and things that we enjoy doing. Whatever it is that causes you to enjoy life – do it! Don’t let someone else’s expectations for you be what you do on your day off. Enjoy the life that God has given to you. If you enjoy golfing, take the time for it even if you are only pitching balls in your backyard. If you enjoy gardening, plant a flowerbed or vegetable garden that will put food on your family’s table. If you enjoy fishing, take your tackle box and drown a worm.
Allow others in your family to have their own hobbies and interests. If you are jealous of the time they spend doing what makes them happy, they will begin to resent things at home. A happy home is an encouraged home.
When you enjoy life, it’s easier to be optimistic. Breathe the fresh air. Get some sunshine. Enjoy the precious life that your God gave you. You might just become a more positive person because of it. Think positively. If you do, it will affect those around you.
