Always take the optimistic outlook over everything, and banish all gloom and negativity. You are surrounded by many wonderful people, things and experiences in life. Why not concentrate on them and give thanks for them, letting go and releasing all that is unpleasant, unhappy or difficult? By your attitude and outlook you draw to you the very best or the very worst in life. Therefore, if you are blaming your circumstances, life or people for your misfortunes, look within to see what you can do to change your attitude. As you start doing it, little by little you will find changes taking place, and you will begin to realise how mightily blessed you are and how truly wonderful life is. What a joy and a privilege it is to be alive, to be where you are, doing what you are doing, surrounded by so many wonderful things and people! Start right now looking for them. They are right there, so you will not have to look very far.
總是對每一件事持有樂觀的態度,並且消除所有憂鬱與負面。我在生活中被很多美好的人們、事物與經歷所包圍著。為什麼不關注於他們,並感恩他們,放開以及釋放所有不愉快的、不開心的、和困難的一切?通過我的態度與觀點,我會在生活中吸引來最好的或是最糟糕的。因此,如果我將我的不幸怪在我的環境、生活或是其他人身上,朝內看,看看我能做些什麼來改變我的態度。
當我開始這樣做時,一點點地我會發現改變正在發生,然後我會開始意識到我是多麼地被祝福,以及生活是有多麼的美好。活著、處於我所在的地方、做著我正從事的、被如此多美好的事物與人們包圍,是多麼的愉悅與榮幸啊!從現在開始就去尋找他們。他們就在那裡,因此我無需找得太遠。
