7 days and counting....

Dealing with the Christmas Funk.

First step out of a Funk...Focus...look for the sparkle or light in every situation.
Second step out of a Funk...Position...live above circumstances rather than under them.
Third Step out of a Funk is to STOP Being Negative.

Life happens. Life is hard. Sometimes life hurts.
It's easier to be negative than positive.
Often we gravitate to the negative place.
But, Christmas is the birth of Positive Possibility through Christ.
Celebrate Christ today by refusing anything negative.

  • No negative comments
  • Push away negative thoughts
  • No negative projections of problems
  • No negative expectations
  • Nothing Negative Today.

Hint: When negative thoughts come to your mind think of them as a ember from a fire landing on your sweater. Just flick it away or else you will catch on fire. Catch it quick and stop the burn of the Funk.

Remember: You will be as moody or as merry as you choose to be.

Christmas Prayer
Jesus, I want you to be my reality and Christmas to be the celebration of new life in you. You were born in a manger in a shepherd's field... nothing glamorous about your birth, your life, or your death. Yet, you came, submitted to the will of God...you came to save me. I have much to be thankful for. Today I choose to be positive and choose to flick away all negative thoughts or actions before they start a fire that can not be contained.
