Here it is. I thought I was a fair minded person until I tried to do this seemingly simple task to change my life each and every day. The book claims that if you do this "seemingly" simple task your life will change drastically! I mean DRASTIC! So, I'm game right? I am....
However, easier said than done (or easier read than done I think). Ok, do you want to know what this easy task is, the one that I thought, "Hey, not a problem!" Ready? Ok, here goes...
Think Happy. That's it.
The catch...it literally means that...it means that, all the time. All the time.
So I thought, "Hey, this will be really great for me, I need to think more positively, and all the time? Perfect!"
My Goodness!! It is really, really, really difficult!!!!!!!!! You are not supposed to even have one shred of doubt because doubt will fuel more doubt; negative thoughts fuel more negative thoughts and so on and so forth.
I was amazed at all the negative thoughts I think every day. About myself, our finances, my parenting skills, my kids, my husband...all the doubt, all the worry, all the negative thoughts, words, or messages I send out to the world about my life! It is really crazy!
So, I'm continuing to work on it, I'm not giving up.... but wow, it is more exhausting than being 35 weeks pregnant with two kids. Really.
So....I challenge you to try it seriously for a full 24 hours. And then let me know your thoughts. If you don't struggle with it, I'm comin' over to feed off of your energy...just a warning.
