What's the difference between looking forward or backward, up or down, to the right or to the left? Not very much, it just needs a SMALL adjustment. Yet, SMALL adjustments in how we view the world have SIGNIFICANT effects. When we get up in the morning, we not only decide what clothing to wear, but what attitude to have. Granted, for most of us, we just act out of habit, so we don't think of it as a choice. But it is. We don't have to act as robots. We can stop and think before we act and choose our attitude.
We can complain about the rain or be grateful for the free carwash. We can view the obstacles and challenges we face during the day as a pain or see them as training for a better, more powerful life. Instead of viewing others with suspicion or as a threat, we can see everyone as our teacher, for we can learn from everyone. It's all how we look at things. But how we look at things spells the difference between happiness and misery. It's just as easy to look for the good as it is to look for the bad. That being so, does it make any sense to look for the bad?
In a rapidly changing world, some panic about change and uncertainty. But aren't the changes swirling around us full of surprises? Doesn't that make life a surprise party, something to celebrate? Sure, we are standing at the door of the unknown, but doesn't that make life an adventure? That should fill you with thrills, not dread. Can you see how a SMALL shift in the direction we choose to look can make the difference between leading a life full of fear or full of joy? The differences between champions and mediocre men and women are those SMALL shifts in viewpoint.
With that said, it's time for me to get on my ride n enjoy my day;)
Have a wonderful day with a wonderful attitude ...HUGS!!!Ride Safe Harley
