A positive attitude is what lights up the sky!
One that says ‘whatever the weather, I am happy’, ‘whatever the weather, I choose peace today’ , ‘whatever the weather, I’m having a great day!’.
Such an attitude does not depend on ‘good’ weather, things to be going one way or another, other people’s reactions or any outside occurrence.
A positive perspective is an inside job – one that everyone can benefit from having. And the domino effect it has is incredible! See your smile appear on the faces of others!
On too many occasions, you put your happiness on standby because of the way you see things and the way you want things to be. From the very moment you look out of your window in the morning you decide what feeling you’re going to take around with you through the course of your day. How many times have you said ‘Oh no it’s raining!, how awful, it’s going to be a dreary day’ A dreary day you ask for, a dreary day you shall get! And blame it on the weather you may, but do you really think the weather deserves a pointing finger?
What is it that makes rain so miserable and sunshine cheery? The answer is, you do.
Because the truth is the weather brings neither happiness nor sorrow. This meaning you attach to it is to suit you, to excuse you, to keep you firmly fixed in a blanket of edgy comfort.
But now is the time to throw the comfort blanket down! Because it’s smoldering your perspective. Take responsibility for your days, your moods and claim back your happiness – come rain or shine!
Choose to have a spring in your step no matter what the circumstances be! Imagine all the fun and exciting things you could be doing and feeling if you made a decision to love each moment, whatever the weather…
So next time you look out of the window at a grey cloud or feel a splatter on your raincoat, take a second to adopt your positive attitude, put a smile back on your face and jump joyfully in the closest puddle! And in doing so, you will inspire others to do the same!
Find happiness in all weather. Create puddles of joy. And take this healthy attitude with you through life.
