I've left the TV off during the day now for nearly two years, and I don't listen to the news on the TV. I find the more I don't listen to negative things, the more I don't want to hear it. But, for some reason that rule doesn't apply to the things I tell myself - I need to fix that!

Needless to say, we all have or had issues (negatives) with ourselves. This was a great re-enforcement to be positive and push away the negatives in our lives!!

I have read also that positive self talk is so much better for us than negative and that the negative can actually be detrimental to our health. Why do we find it so hard to do? I don't know but I think it is something we need to strive for.

I've longed believed that a positive attitude is more healthy than a negative one and have tried to be a 'glass half full' kind of gal but it doesn't always work. There are some real words and wisdom to ponder in your post today and a great take on our theme this months. Words do matter ... to everyone.Dottihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00811399388989716265noreply@blogger.com
