I never realized how unhappy and negative people can be untill I began to enforce positive thinking in my life. The world isnt always perfect - but how often do we really take the time to appreciate what we have and how we live ?

I’m so grateful for being able to see the brighter side of life . Positive thinking has really changed my mood and outlook on life. I can’t imagine going back. I only began using postitive thinking about a week ago and already I can see the benefits of it - it truley is a secret to a better life.

So I went to the doctors today to get the test results of my blood work - everything came back negative so I’m healthy and my blood is doing good ! haha

 It’s actaully really great news - I want to be healthy and knowing that I’m in a place of good health makes me really happy. My therapist gave me a book to read this week - its called the secret and I had no idea what it was about but after reading it I find myself feeling like I have alot of answers about my life. I used to think about the negatives so much and worry about what I didnt want - but the concept of this ’secret’ is to focus on the positive and believe that you can have the life you really want . It’s really inspired me to stop worrying and get on with my life - decide what I want , and not fear having it !

It’s an exciting time - knowing that im happy, healthy, strong , and feeling at peace with who I am ! Now I just need that call back from the garden center I applied to so I can start working my excellent new job !

So I went down 5 pounds over the last few weeks . More then likley it’s just my weight leveling out- but hey it’s nice to see anyways. Recently I’ve realized that a lot of how I look at my health and body is negative - I dont think about how great it feels to be happy and healthy - I only really focus on how it feels to be unhealthy and sad. It’s not good motivation !

With that in mind - I plan to focus on the positive things in life - what I have , what I love, and what I want for my future (not what I dont want !!). Already I’ve seen a shift in my day-to-day life, positive thinking really is much better !

There seems to have been a shift in my outlook on life. This week went very well, ever since I went off birth control & began taking some herbal supplements - I’ve been feeling alot better.  On tuesday I got a pet bird ! He is a dove & his name is Oakley . It’s nice to have something to take care of and show affection towards - I haven’t had a pet since I was a child. I also found myself eating well & exercising every day this week . It feels great to know Im doing something good for my body. I’ve already seen a shift in my mood , probobly because of the exercise , its nice to care about myself again.

I even applied for a job this week! It’s at a garden center - I hope I get it I’ve always enjoyed working outside & with plants ; I’m considering studying to become a florist so maybe I should be applying to flower shops . I’m happy to see myself looking forward to life again !
