Wow - Hard to Stay Positive

This week has been the pits!

It's not just me either. Everyone has been put through the obstacle course, and then it was the rack! Was it a full moon or was the sun doing something weird to us defenseless humans?

I have to be honest - I didn't keep a positive attitude while going through this week. I dreamed of escape! Funny thing about this temporary lapse into escapism - it didn't help!

Nope - this dreadful week just proved there's only one way to deal with adversity... head on and with a full head of positive attitude!

I had one really GREAT experience this week that alone was able to counter-balance all the unpleasant things I was going through. I spoke with a room of bright college students. Wow! I wish these students could realize how truly great they are. I was there to give them career advice, but it was I who left charged up! Wish I could bottle that energy and take a sip when I need a pick-me-up!

Hey! I can keep this positive feeling alive and well in my mind and in my heart.

So, I'm pledging here and now that I will carry my virtual vial of positive energy into the battles of next work week and I will have a better go of it.

Oh, yeah - I'm ready... after the weekend, that is!
