I recently mentioned my list of 101 goals for 2007. One of the many items on it was to create a different list. This time the list was to include all of those things which are good in my life and to start out the list with at least 50 items.50 was a breeze.
I ranged the gamut from the profound to the trivial. I included things from the love of my wife to Thai food, from my business to my memories of Thanksgiving with my family in New York.
That was last night.
Tonight I added ten more. My goal is to add at least ten every night for the next month. Just think, by the end of November, I should have between 300 and 400 "good things" on my list. What a powerful message to myself that I have a truly wonderful life.
With that kind of emotional armor, the slings and arrows of the occasional everyday misfortune won't even be able to touch me.
So, how many items do you have on your "good things" list?
Greg, this is your mother! Sometimes I am sure that I was lucky enough to bring someone else's baby home from the hospital. You make me realize how lucky I am to have such a wonderful son.
