What Will They Say About You
You do not have to be at the mercy of fate. You are the author of your own life. Begin now to create the life you want to be remembered for.

It is easy to keep your mind positive when everything is going well. Good times beget good thoughts and feelings. Unfortunately, life is not always full of roses and skipping through the park. Life happens. Things occur. Tragedy strikes.
Expect the best but anticipate the worst. You may have heard this expression. It was (and still is) my mother’s great advice. Unfortunately, by planning for the worst, you are short changing your potential. I am not suggesting that you run out tomorrow and spend your life savings. Nor am I suggesting that you fail to act responsibly. What I am saying is that by anticipating the worst, you are creating a conflict in your brain. Abraham Lincoln said a house divided against itself cannot stand. The same is true for your brain. Your brain can not remain positive while contemplating the worst. You cannot remain focused on reaching your goals if all you see are the obstacles. Expect the best. Focus on your goal. The rest of the story
You can train your brain to always think positive and you can teach yourself to always react in a positive way.
“A body at rest tends to stay at rest, a body in motion tends to stay in motion.” Many people are familiar with this paraphrase of Newton’s First Law of Motion.
