Power To Change

"You have the power to change your world and environment" - Dean Sweetman

Everyday passes as another learning experience and opportunity to make your life better. Events happen around and to you that will give rise to your ability to react in one way or another. How you handle these moments, these interactions of life will dictate if you move towards the life you want or leave you standing still in the same place.

When life is not going well, people tend to adapt to the conditions by growing accustomed to the situation. To change, to risk movement is not something that they would consider. A pop singer named Tori Amos said, "our generation has an incredible amount of realism, yet at the same time it loves to complain and not really change. Because, if it does change, then it won't have anything to complain about."

I would not hold that quote to just a particular generation for I find it in all age levels of people I talk to. The complaints may be different as are the reasons for why anyone may have a need to complain. It would appear to me that these people simply allow themselves to give thought to negative attitudes. Those negative attitudes are like planting a seed inside yourself much like the planting of a positive seed.

A negative seed though is like a weed. It grows quickly and fervently to take over all other thoughts. Others will notice it growing in you by how you talk and your gestures. Eventually anything positive in your life is overrun by the negative. You need to carefully seperate your negative attitudes from the positive ones. Burn the negative from your life as much as you can. This will allow the positive to grow stronger and brighter.

Making room for great attitude will result in the strength to make change. It will help you make room for a better life.
