Congrats on your win(s)! It always pays to stay positive. It's a free hobby that bring happiness to many.
Remember an acronym I learned in a sales class....PMA positive mental attitude...then say, " I feel happy, I feel healthy, I feel terrific" repeat.
A is for attitude.
Yeah, but....this, that...pops up....reasons we cannot remain positive, happy, hopeful....circumstances...perception.
Someone told me to make a gratitude list....10 things daily and we will see just how much we have.
I haven't done this in a long time. I think I will today and post it where I can see it.
My Grandfather used to say, "You have two arms and two legs, two eyes, and two ears, you are not in the hospital." What have you got to complain about?
But, you don't understand, I would say....and list my reasons for what was "wrong". Silly me.
I think I was born this way! He said I used to complain if my socks were not put on straight. LOL
+ Thanks for the reminder to practice being positive.
Reminds me of the song, Be optimistic, don't you be a grumpy, when the road gets bumpy, just smile.... Shirley Temple
Then there is a great song from a musical called Little Miss Sunshine...Look for a sky of blue.

"Whenere a cloud appears, filled with doubt and fears, look for a sky of blue, Whenere a cloud of gray seems to waft your way, look for a sky of blue,
Remember sometimes the sun is shining, it may be shining someday for you, So til that happy day, we must learn to say, look for a sky of blue."
