A Lesson on Staying Positive

When work piles up, traffic jams occur, or our weekend activities don’t go as planned, it’s easy for us to become upset, disappointed, or even angry.

On a recent flight from Atlanta to Mobile, I met a new friend named Stewart who encouraged me (and now all of you) to look at setbacks in an entirely different way. He said, “I learned a long, long, long time ago to stop worrying about the things I ain’t got, and start celebrating the things I do.”

So as you head into your Wednesday, take a moment to look at all the gifts around you- a hot shower, a warm cup of coffee, the beautiful sunshine, smiling faces. And when problems arise, choose to be like Stewart and just respond, “That’s all right, darlin’!”

Today is your day. Live Inspired.
