New Attitude

So for the new year I am focusing on a better more positive attitude. I have made it my goal to make this year more productive and not let the little things get to me as much. Many people have said that the more positive you are the more positive things that will happen to you. Well I am going to test this out in the new year. I am going to make it about being positive and making more time for me and my daughter to do things we enjoy together.

So why am I taking the time to write about this. Well after hearing and seeing so much negative and being so frustrated for so long I have found it very difficult to stay possitive during some things. Like today when the woman waited until I was entering the intersection to make the right turn into my lane and then gives me a dirty look. Ummm Hello I had the right away. I have severe road rage and I will admitt it so that was hard to put it away. I did though and finished my trip and came home to have fun.

So it is said that if you surround yourself with possitive thoughts and possitive things then your life will be filled with possitivity. I am going to do my best to make this happen for me and my daughter this coming year. I am going to do good things to make possitive things happen in my life.

SO what do you do if there is already negative in your life? What if you have negative that has surounded you for years what is the best way to turn that around. That is the question for me. How do you turn years od bad thoughts and energy into good. I know it can not be done over night since the negative didn't happen that way. Also what do you do if what you want clashes with the people that you know and are close with. How do you stay close with these people but still make yourself happy?

This will be my challange for the year turning my life into a positive. Trust me it will be interesting with the things that are going to be happening but I am determined to not live with anger anymore and not have the hate that I used to either. I am determined to let go of the anger and resentment and be clean and have a better me happen this year. I just do not feel like being angry anymore.

So I will be on a journey to clean up myself I guess you would say. I may even document it as I go. The hard part is how do you forgive people that you never had any intention of forgiving? That will be the hardest part. Also I may forgive them but that does not mean I want anything to do with them because they are still toxic. Do you have to tell them or do you just forgive them in your own way. I have never done the forgiving thing before so I really do not know how it works. They say though that the longer you hold a grudge the longer you let that person keep a hold on your life and control you because they are taking over your thoughts. I am tired of giving my thoughts to other people. I want them to be for me and my daughter from now on.
