SEEING THROUGH ROSE COLOURED GLASSES


The pessimist sees difficulty in every opportunity. The optimist sees the opportunity in every difficulty.

I am choosing to feel good and put the most favourable construction upon actions and events and therefore anticipating the best possible outcome.

Example:

- Tired - opportunity to go back to bed on Sunday morning when I have nothing else to do for the day

- No energy - opportunity to take a rest day from training

- Hungry - opportunity to resist the temptation of junk food

- Stressed - opportunity to practice some deep breathing

- Lonely - opportunity to call my friends and family

- Bored - opportunity to read one of my magazines that I haven't had time to do
