Positive or Negative?


Your reaction to a situation determines whether it will be positive or negative. If youre determined to label a situation positive, no matter how it appears, the result MUST be positive. If you label something negative, that MUST be your experience. Its never too late to change a situation because you have an unlimited supply of positive sticky labels! Your life is always your call!
Rhonda Byrne

Loved this!!!

Yep... reminds me a lot about the discussion around perspectives, and what WE bring to any situation greatly influences the outcome....

One of my favorite sayings - "words can be used for two things - to build up, or to break down".....

Wiser words may have never been uttered...

Thanks for sharing.

I like to say... When you get up in the morning, it can be a good day or a bad day. The choice is ALWAYS yours. :)

Yep, completely agree.  I "get it" now.  In the past, I recall reading similar statements and going, "HUH???  But what about ........ And what about....... How can that be postive?"   

But now, I go, "RIGHT!"  Paying attention to my own experiences. specifically my way of looking at situations and how I responded, okay, reacted to them,  has shown me this is a universal truth.

I'm a believer now  wink

Thanks for posting.
