Preparing with positive thoughts and emotional imagining.
When you wake up in the morning do you prepare for the day to come? No … I don’t mean the usual grooming, dressing, breaking fast, and so on. I mean do you prepare for THE DAY – as in … “this is the first day of the rest of your life” day.
Do you think on what you will bring to the day today? Do you imagine the potential for making new discoveries about yourself and others?
Do you see yourself exploring new boundaries by shaking off the old, tried and true, unchanging parts of the past that you find yourself caught up in?
Your emotions are key to letting go the negative that can affect you. Remember what you feel inside are “your emotions” created by “your feelings” about what has been happening in “your life”. The common denominator here is YOU. And what you’re going to do about it.
Do you think about the personal power that you own? This absolute power you have – a power that hovers inside each of us – waiting to burst forth to inspire and influence. Do you think about who you can become? Right now! Just by taking control of your emotions and directing them towards positive thoughts and action.
Do you know in your heart-of-hearts that you can and will have a good day and that you will help others to have a good day also? Do you know that you will be there if a friend or stranger has need of you?
Do you prepare for possible adversity by planning to be brave and strong?
Are you preparing yourself for laughter? At yourself, at other’s whimsies, at life’s misadventures and for no reason at all except that it makes you feel good to laugh and hear others laugh around you?
And when you’ve finished preparing for the day … do you begin? To make your life happen?
…If not, than you haven’t prepared for the day at all. It will be someone else’s preparation that you will follow and adhere to: Someone else’s power, someone else’s opinions. And your dreams?
Well, I guess they’ll wait until another day! But I hope not. Because I know and believe inside you is something great just waiting for a signal from you to come out and begin!
Just imagine what happens then!

The Why About This 
I wake up & thank God for another day & hope that I can find more time in it as lately – I’m running out of it before the day ends.
Make sense?
xo 🙂 🙂 xo
Yeah, that seems to be the going thing right now. Too much of too much (to do) and not enough time for all to happen. Keep waking up and thanking God though, RoSy, I’ve found these patches do pass … 🙂 xo
Once again Penny, you cause me to consider how I start the day and walk through it as well. Thank you.
In my life, Valentine, I’ve had a fair share of …well let’s just call it unfortunate personal circumstances that I lived through, and the weathering of some truly sad and horrific emotional experiences, where I had to hang on and be there for others. I guess like steel, one gets tempered to a degree. The truth is I’m just so happy to wake up to each new day that I do tend to stay in a grateful and positive mode. And I am pleased I can be of value to you, most sincerely so! xx
This is brilliant, and we do forget often to prepare like that for the day! Wishing you a love filled day with lots of potential!
Thank you dear friend and the same to you. I hope your week ahead is all you would wish it to be Ute!
There are so many to do in a day and can’t complete all.

No worries, Yoshiko. The main advice was to start off by being grateful and thinking about the difference you can make by having a positive attitude! 🙂
I see. Thanks, Penny 🙂
