How to Overcome Obstacles Using Reframing Practically

Can your hear it now? “This cup half-full, half-empty bull manure doesn’t help, when I have a real problem. Positive thinking doesn’t help to overcome obstacles that are real.”

I think I’d have to agree with you, that you can’t leave it to positive thinking. Action is needed and thinking about a problem with positive reframing may hold the answers to your questions and the solutions to your problems. The mind is powerful when you learn to be in charge.

What Moves You To Give a Hoot?

Have you been told, “You have to give”? The religion I grew up with was very emphatic about it. You’ve probably heard it has to be a certain percentage of your income and that, if you don’t give, God will not bless you.

And there are those that definitely take unfair advantage of this, but at the same time you will find that the need to give or contribute in some way to others is a need you have deep inside. Discover what moves you to give and give from your heart.
