It’s dark. It’s cold. It’s raw — and it’s before 6 a.m. The rain has come down in buckets for hours. The world seems to be choking you with its frigid, unforgiving arms.
I can promise you this:
The gloomy weather will weigh on you.
You will run into idiots on the interstate — and you pray they literally don’t run into you.
A coworker WILL annoy you — even if you work by yourself.
The news on the TV will be bad.
A man on the radio will tell you how someone is out to get you.
Someone on Facebook will have a crisis. Or worse, make you mad.
You will get an unexpected bill.
Something will break.
Do you allow these to drive your day? Or do you drive your day?
It’s your choice. Some of those things I’ve listed are real problems. But if you focus on what is in your control and make them better, you will have a happier, more productive day.
Make today special. Make it your signature.
It’s 5:49 a.m. I’m making my list right now on how to just that. What will you do to make your day the best one ever?
Thanks Marshall. Today I will start by choosing to look at the positive side of every situation.
It’s 6:45 and I try to get out of bed on the right side every morning and to keep that attitude all day. My hardest challenge to keep my positive attitude is with current politics
I understand — I comment on politics for a living! But I know, at the end of the day, this country is stronger than the yahoos who are trying to screw it up for personal gain. At least that’s what I keep telling myself! I see us (as in people, not gov’t) do the right thing when pushed against the wall– (9/11, Katrina)
Yes, your political cartoons bring humor into the situation. Thanks for making my mornings great
