Day 18: Move

Day 18 of "21 Days of Distinction"

It's so easy to be a pessimist. It's so easy to be negative. It's so easy to jump on the complain train. How come?

Why is it so easy to focus on and embrace the bad stuff more than the good stuff sometimes? Managing loss, by choice, has become an art form for many. Much more challenging is the choice to search for solutions.

The Way I See It: Life is too long to wallow in the past negative, and too short to procrastinate the present positive.

The beginning of a new year births the anticipation that things will be OK... that things will be better... that things will be good. Choosing this unspoken optimism enforces those feelings and influences those outcomes throughout the rest of the year.

Now is the time to act on them...

Your move.
