I have seen a saying on instagram recently and I just love it and the New Year is a perfect time to think about it
... LET YOUR PILE OF GOOD THINGS GROW ...
Rather than at the start of a New Year cut things out and try and be strict, we should fill our good things pile and there will soon be no room for the bad. Good habits will soon outway the bad, joy will soon outweigh sadness, and happy moments will outweigh the others.
I want to adopt this way of thinking this year ... how about you?
I have had my
Clippy bag for a month and I have loved using it ... it is a great size and brings a smile to my face everytime I see it :D
I thought for New Year I could have lots of firework photos, or numbers in each pocket 2 0 1 2, or a list of my New Year resolutions ... but in the end I have gone for lots of lovely positive sayings ... perfect for starting a New Year!
- it's a good day to have a good day
- keep calm and stay positive
- every day may not be good ... but there is something good in every day
- all our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them ~ walt disney
- always keep a notebook handy. you never know when inspiration will strike
- breathe and smile, it's a brand new day!
- live simply
- take a roadtrip
- make everyday a cloud nine kinda day
- be silly be honest be kind
- let all that you do be done in love
- so do not worry about tomorrow for tomorrow will care for itself
Clippy have a
SALE on at the moment, so why not pop over and treat yourself to a New Year gift!
2010 has been one of the worst years of my life ... not that many of the recent years have been that great, but it is one I don't want to repeat. It probably hasn't been the best year to try and write a diary everyday especially when I have not wanted to talk about bad things, but I am looking forward next year and know that things will be different.
I am not going to look at the bad though and go out of 2010 with the positives in my life and things that have changed since last year ...
- I am a stone lighter than last year
- I am not trapped and can now do what I like with my life!
- I have given up coffee
I have never liked New Year as it is just seemed to mark another year of misery, but its going to be different from now on ... 2011 is the start of my new life ... and its just going to get better and better.
My big brother arrived yesterday with his wife and lovely baby for a few
days over New Year ... we don't do anything to exciting tonight,
but it will be nice to play some games and just spend time together!
I hope you all have a great New Year's Eve and a brilliant 2011!
Bring it on!!
I think being positive is very important and good for your health ... no one likes a moaner and looking at things negatively all the time can't be good for your mental health.
The dogs are going stir crazy and so am I a bit ... stuck in 'cos of the snow. There was a fresh falling of it this morning.
So much for my good start at the beginning of the week ... don't feel it today ... feel all achey and not really in the mood to do anything. Humm, one of my resolutions was not to moan so I am going to try and find 5 positive things to say about the day ... here goes ...
- It wasn't as cold as it has been when I was walking to the Post Office today.
- I had a HUGE order for work (this should really be number 1!)
- I had a lovely chat to my dad on iChat.
- I enjoyed my yummy tea of pasta bake (with lots of cheese!)
- .... last one .... long pause .... humm, this is no good, come on Maria ... oh yeah, someone had a very promising phone call this morning (I know cryptic!) hehe ... but it still counts.
And on that note I am going to go to bed!
Night x
