Gosh, do I understand that one. I spent years spinning downward, ever trying to get up and everyday, I started at the bottom again. I could never understand how to reach a bit of elevation, make it grow, even a little, each day. How did others do it? It was something I guess that just had to run its' course, and, what a long course it had.

Someone once said to me, it seemed so profound at the time, that it stuck with me for a long time and I repeated it to myself again and again. It's really simple, like so many truly profound things are.

They said, whatever your first thought of the day is, that's how the rest of your day will go.

Try it. Try to make your first thought positive, even if it doesn't feel true or seem to fit. It will affect how the rest of your day goes.
