Six Powerful Thoughts for Monday

2009 June 1

Every daily post in June will be devoted to fostering the creative spirit with us.

Here are a few thoughts to contemplate to help smooth your ride into your workweek:

  1. You can be compassionate with EVERYONE you meet—especially those who give you a hard time. Despite appearances, everybody is doing the best they can. The inner and outer battles of human beings are great and many.
  2. You can let go of unnecessary struggle. You can allow everything and everyone to be as they are—even just for today.
  3. You can change your metaphor for life. Life doesn’t have to be a struggle, a series of problems, a Lifetime-channel drama or a pain in the ass. Life can be a divine comedy, cosmic entertainment, a wondrous adventure or a cherished gift.
  4. You can realize the power of love. Love is everywhere—whether you currently see or experience it or not.
  5. You can take control of your inner adventure. How you experience an event depends on your perspective and how you “hold it.” You can choose to hold it differently.
  6. You can smile more often. Smiles and laughter are contagious gifts we share with each other. It’s a beautiful thing.

For a reminder of this last point invest six minutes and watch this:

    Mondays will always give us a tough time. But once surpassed, I believe it gives us enough will and inspiration to get through the whole week. Starting the week with a positive outlook makes us see the rest of the week in a different light.
