Make Your Day Go YOUR Way

What kind of day are you going to have today? Every day and actually every moment we can choose to either have a crappy day or a good day.  Whatever we believe about our day is going to come into fruition.

I am inspired to write about this because yesterday I had a crap commute into work that could've easily ruined me for the day.  I spilled something all inside my bag while waiting for the subway train in 19 degree weather (which I didn't dress appropriately for)  I waited forever for the next train to arrive only to learn that they were single-tracking the train due to a cracked rail on one side, which more than doubled my travel time into work.  There was nowhere to sit on the train so I had stand the whole time--which made my back hurt.  And when a train is packed like that, hostility inevitably ensues and tends to get me all stirred up.

The old Brooke Baker would've been thrown by all these annoyances...BUT yesterday I deliberately chose to have a good day despite the morning mayhem.  I got into work, shook off the tension from the morning, greeted my beautiful co-workers and clients with a loving smile and got on with a wonderful day!

So your mantra for the day is "I choose life, love, and goodness."  Say this mantra to yourself to maintain the calm peace in your soul and to not be rattled by setbacks and stressors throughout the day.



Now go have yourself a beautiful day!
xoxoxo,
Brooke
