Being Positive

Recently, after going through a personal identity crisis, I had been searching high and low for a meaning of our purpose being alive.

In the Stop Workplace Drama:

The author explained that when we are lost in fog, we need to ask “Who we are” and “What we are committed to”.

In the Energy Bus:

One story told by the Author brought me the eureka moment:

A man goes to a village and visits a wise man and says, “I feel like there are two dogs inside me.  One dog is this positive, loving, kind, and gentle dog and then I have this angry, mean-spirited, and negative dog and they fight all the time.  I don’t know which is going to win.”  The wise man thinks for a moment and he says, “I know which is going to win.  The one you feed the most, so feed the positive dog.”  This is very true of the spiritual battle.

While we think, we need to differentiate between thoughts that need us to address to (real problems to be solved) and negative thoughts.  Once we are consciously making an effort to cut out the negativity and to think positively more frequently, while we solve problems. 

And when we make any decisions, we need to review them based on “Who we are” and “What we are committed to”. 

Yes!
