Default Lets be Positive

I dont know if anyone would be interested in this thread, but i think it would be nice if we all took some time and wrote down inspirational quotes or sayings or stories to get us all into a better more positive mood.

Ok I will start some and I hope others can join in.

Focus on Making things BETTER not BIGGER

Never underestimate the power of love and forgiveness.


Remember that a successful marriage depends on two things {1} finding the right person and {2} being the right person

Dont forget, a persons greatest emotional need is to feel appreciated

I got these from a book called Life's Little Instruction Book....i have many more but want to hear yours too...

Alt Weight Loss Surgery Insurance
Yes, you can often get insurance cover for your Weight Loss Surgery.
Our own Craig "Big-T" Thompson has been there and done that, and he's written an e-book about it.

Count your blessings instead of counting what you don't have.

It pays to be patient, patience is a virtue.

If you are in a rush, then take the long route. (This is an old Japanese saying. The more in a hurry you are, it pays to slow down and take a good look at things.)

Ok let me think for a minute.........

You always pass failure on the way to success.

You become strong by defying defeat and by turning loss into gain and failure to success.

"You can do anything if you have
enthusiasm."

Those are great ones.....

Here is one...

You get to fill the blackboard of your life with whatever you want. If you have filled it with the baggage from the past, wipe it clean, erase everything from the past that does not serve you, and be greatful it brought you to this place now and to a new begining. You have a clean slate and you can start over, right here, right now. Find your joy and live it!

I love that one from the book the secrete...

Here are some from the book called "life's Little instruction book"

When someone is relating an important event that has happened to them, dont try to top them with a story of your own. Let them have the stage.

Avoid negative people.

Resist telling people how something should be done. Instead tell them what needs to be done. They will often suprise you with creative solutions.

Never give up on what you really want to do. The person with big dreams is more powerful then the one with all the facts.

Measure people by the size of their hearts not by the size of their bank accounts.

Become the most positive and enthusiastic person you know.

Dont be afraid to say "I dont know"

Love you guys.

LittleLisaMarie
