Positivity: Positivity

Positivity cannot be created by thought alone. It cannot be forced. Over the years there have been numerous concepts presented to us about the “power of positive thinking”. What many take away from this notion is that if you think positive, you will create a better life for yourself. The problem is, that’s only half the battle, so to speak. It is not just thought, but feeling. If you think positive but don’t feel positive, the end result is not

Positivity: Thanks Giving

This week we will be celebrating Thanksgiving (at least in the United States). I want to ignore both the moral issues of the Colonists and Native Americans, as well as the modern-day commercialization of the holidays overall, and focus on the words and the intent. Thanks.
