Positive Babble - Zoom In On The Good Things Happening In Your Day!

Zoom In On The Good Things Happening In Your Day!

03/29/22 • 6 min

I keep reading that having one difficult, disappointing or embarrassing thing happen to us in a day can keep us from noticing anything good or even great that happens in addition. Well that just sucks. I know I've been guilty of it on occasion myself.
In this short babble I talk about how maybe we can try something else. Let's become more aware of the fact we are zooming in on something unpleasant or obsessing about something we can't control, then like a camera lens, zoom out again and let our whole day come into the picture. Once we do that we can start to list all the great things that went on. Once we see an example of something happy, fun or great, zoom in on that. Focus your attention there.
Repeat this as often as you'd like so you can truly see how much good stuff your day is composed of. Remember the good things are often the little things, so don't pass up that great cup of coffee you got from your favorite barista or the woman that told you how she liked your hair! It all counts my friends.

Have an amazing week!!

What Are You Celebrating?

This week is a little longer of a Babble on celebrating your accomplishments and focusing on what is going right in your life.
I am happy to be celebrating Episode 20 of the podcast among other wonderful things in my life like coffee, fresh air and beautiful Maui days.
I dive a little bit into why I believe so strongly in Positive Mindset practices and how I have put them to use time and time again and have seen the incredible benefits.
I discover a great way to incorporate a new Positive Mindset practice each day at bed time by asking myself "what I can celebrate about my day?" Taking a few minutes each day to focus on all the good things that have been accomplished will definitely help keep us on the path to joy!
I invite you to join me in this little experiment and see how it helps you in your daily life. Try it for 7, days, 10 days, 15 days or 30 days. Just a few minutes each evening think about what you can celebrate. Finishing that task at work, dropping a friend off at the airport, opening a door for someone. It all counts! I think I'll go for 30 days and keep you posted on how it's going for me.
Remember celebrate it all even the little things, maybe especially the little things since those are the things that matter most after all.
DM me on Facebook or Instagram @positivebabble and let me know how it's going for you. You can also shoot me an email at [email protected]
Have an amazing week!

Thoughts of Change! A Tiny Tidbit Babble...

I needed something light and easy this week to share and I found it. I took us back into the Daily Book of Positive Quotations by Linda Picone and this is a real gem.
Straight forward and to the point, if you think you can you will and if you think you can't you won't. This entry is so right on. There is no great mystery behind positive thinking. It is all up to us to figure out how we want to face the world each day. Do you jump in with a smile or trudge in head down. Some days it feels harder than others to gather up the courage to change your thinking, but it's worth the effort. I have proved it to myself time and time again. I hope you know you are worth that effort too friend.
This week I chose a different method of delivering your Positive Babble. How do you like the episode minus the intro and outro and set to music?? I really like it. It was an experiment and again, I did it all myself so I am celebrating that.
I got this idea from a great friend, Beth Lease, over at the So, I Got Divorced Podcast. She does the super cool background music in her podcast too! Check her out anywhere you get your podcasts from she's fantastic.
Thanks for listening!
Have an amazing week!
