As we go through the day it seems really easy to notice when things go wrong: the traffic light turns red, we get the wrong item at the drive-thru, someone cuts us off in traffic, the cell phone drops a call.
Do you notice when things go right? Probably not. Most of us don’t, but we should. For some reason it always seems easier to tick off all the minor problems that crop up during the day.
The reality is that most of the time there are more things going right for us than going wrong. Let’s start noticing those things and ignoring the little problems.
Notice when the traffic light is green and you can sail right through the intersection. Notice when your drive-thru order is right. Notice all the drivers that are courteous. Notice when you get a good cell phone connection.
Notice all the things going right during the day and you’ll be amazed at how many things actually go right for you each day.
I believe that if we started noticing all the things going right, we’d notice it even less when something does go wrong.
To your happiness!
