Fighting The Negative Snowball

One of my dearest friends wrote this the other day regarding her own life,

“I’ve been working on being positive but it’s amazing how one negative thought can get the ball rolling.”

It’s really easy to let negativity creep in. I know I let it happen. I’m doing so well and being positive then I make a mistake like eating cookies for breakfast. Suddenly my knowing what I’m doing and certainty in my future success fades a little. And once it fades a little, I sure can heap onto it a lot of other negativity.

But that’s not what I want out of life.

I don’t think that’s what anyone really wants out of life.

My day yesterday had a miserable tone to it after I let one little thing in the morning start my own negative snowball for the day. Today I want to be different. So I made sure the first thing I sent out to the world (literally, on Twitter) was,

Another new day to be grateful for! And I am! :)

I’m grateful for the fact that every new day is an opportunity to make new and good choices. Every new day is an opportunity to start fresh. It’s a new opportunity to feel positive. It’s easy to let the negative creep in, but not really worth it.

So today I am once again choosing to be positive. It’s a new day and I’m going to fill it with positivity and good choices for my health and life.
