When That One Thing Goes Wrong

And everything falls apart.

When That One Thing Goes Wrong

Most of us have been in similar situations and the reason for that is our negative thoughts and energy. One thing goes bad and our instincts kick in making us focusing on the threats and we instantly start going into a thought process into what ifs, and we start focusing on problems that don’t even exist.

When we put out an energy like that we give negative thoughts more power. Being positive is the most powerful thing that you can do for your success and for a healthy lifestyle. A lot of people talk themselves out of achieving their goals before they even take the first step because they are so worried about what could go wrong and start focusing on the negative rather than the positive. Keep in mind negative thoughts are just that, thoughts not facts.

One thing we tend to forget is No matter how bad our situation is there is always someone out there who has it worse, so it is very important to focus on the positive rather than the negative. And I challenge you to find at least two positive things out a bad situation. There is no instance which you can turn out to make yourself more positive, you have to work on it little by little every single day. Self-talk is something that you can do every day to achieve a more positive lifestyle.

If you don't expect great things to happen they won’t. Lots of people settle for an average life, if that's what you truly want then there is no point reading this message! A lot of us want more, determine what you want from life, and use the power of positive thinking to go and get it. It is simple as that. After all your thoughts lead to behaviors, behaviors lead to your habits, and your habits lead to your life.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
