Be like Pollyanna. 

 

We can learn a lot from characters in children's stories. Take Pollyanna, for example. If you haven't heard the story, it's about a young girl who endures many hardships, yet she still finds something to be happy about. She calls it, "The Glad Game." 

Have you tried playing The Glad Game? Sometimes negative thinking is simply a habit. People often act more like Eeyore than Pollyanna. But, you don't have to. 

Action for the day: Whether you feel like it or not, play The Glad Game today. When you feel like complaining, find something to be glad about instead.

I'm going back to my "thankful for" journal entries. I'm journaling at least 3 things each day I'm thankful for. The Devil will NOT win.

I had not considered doing that - thanks for the idea.

Might be a great reminder.
