Random Thoughts is just that~ blurbs on random thoughts that I have in my life. A outpouring onto "paper" that which is in my head...

Good Monday Morning!
This morning when I woke up I tried a little some thing new~ this is part of the positive thinking stuff~usually when the alarm goes off I roll over smack the snooze button and groan that I don't want to get up yet. So today I tried a little something different. The alarm went off, in automatic pilot I reached over and smacked it, then I remembered...

It is a NEW day! New things to look forward to, new memories to create, new people to meet, new joys to discover! How can one be grumbly when there is so much to look forward to?

Although I didn't JUMP out of bed with enthusiasm, instead of grumbling and trying to go back to sleep, I made a mental list of all the great things that I had to look forward to today. Getting coffee made (mental note that when I buy my new coffee maker I want to buy one that will coffee ready for me when I wake up!) sitting down to that first cup of coffee and my email from friends, and so on...

Today is a "boring" stay at home sort of day~ yet even with that I know there are things to look forward to and things that will be special.

My new goal is to start each morning instead of grumping that it is morning and I don't want to get out of bed... I want to change that. I want to wake up thinking about all the great things that I have to look forward to!

For me, to help me really focus on being positive, I decided that I needed music that got me going in the right direction to start with. So I have downloaded "Walking on Sunshine" (just the chorus) to be my new morning alarm :) I'll get it added on my clock sometime today.

Then to help a little more with the really being positive first thing in the morning~ I am going to look for some really inspirational type pictures (or take them myself) to put on my bathroom walls and that way I have even more positive influence first thing in the morning (and through out the day too!)
