Smile
Some of us are smile challenged. It's amazing the difference a smile can make-particularly in situations where we are challenged.
Your smile is a messenger of your good will. To someone who has seen a dozen people frown, scowl, or turn their faces away, your smile is like the sun breaking through the clouds. Especially when that person is under pressure from their bosses, their customers, or their families, a smile can help them realize that all is not hopeless-that there is joy in the world.
Move to Action
All this week, try to smile at someone once every hour. Notice any changes?

Attitude
from www.aarondavisspeaks.com
That’s the thing about life; you never know what the future holds but you must refuse to live in fear of something bad happening. My brother would often say “It’s gonna be a good day”; I couldn’t agree more. Your daily attitude is a key factor in how you respond to the storms of life.
A positive attitude is nothing more than processing the things in your life with a positive mindset. This does NOT mean that you will “always” have a great attitude because that IS impossible. It was impossible for me to have a great attitude after finding out about something bad. But the way that I “choose” to process it has made all the difference in the world.
Maybe you’re facing one of the following issues:
• Lost job causing financial stress
• Strained relationship with your spouse, son or daughter
• Frustrated with your current place in life
None of us can control what happens “to” us; but we all can control how we “respond” and the attitude we use to process it all. Yes, storms are a sure part of life but don’t forget my friends that eventually the sun will shine again!
