I have been trying to think happy thoughts.
I remind myself that the economy goes through ups and downs in a cycle. Meaning it can only get better.
I’m practicing The Secret, the law of attraction, one of the tees is headed my way.
Enjoying my family!
I practice The Secret and remind myself every day that I am thankful for my job and what I have.
I’m keeping busy and trying to do more with less.
my faith in God and listening to good praise and worship music keeps me uplifted.
I try to focus on the many blessings I do have and continue to pray for a better tomorrow!
Things will be better soon. I have faith in our country
we only get the necessities and with family and love its all u need
I’ve been out of work and looking for a job for seven months. Since we can’t afford daycare when I’m not working I’ve been turned into a SAHM as well. I keep telling myself there are thousands of worst jobs out there than being with my girls all day.
There are a lot of positive things to be thankful for and I think about those instead of brooding on problems. (Listening to good music helps keep the spirits up too.)
I put everything in perspective. What is most imporant is family and all the blessings I have.
i smile a lot.
I just completed 48 weeks of chemo and learned early on to stay focused and positive. This made the grueling treatment much easier on me. I’ve learned to push any negative thoughts out of my head. As soon as a negative thought enters then I think of a positive in my life and not allow the negative to stay. It took a bit of practicing but it’s automatic now. I will continue with positive thoughts to get through the financial crisis. After what I just endured, I know I can overcome anything.
I am writing a fiction novel inspired by books such as Harry Potter and Twilight. When I get into my writer’s mode, nothing can get me down!
I also pay cash only for anything I need and save up for things I “want”.
I try to remember that this will pass at some point and to hang in there until then. I am really going to try for a big garden this year and use more coupons!
I hold onto what means the most, my family.
This way we can work together and get through this.
i take some “me” time every day by working out…and believe everything happens for a reason. Hard times are temporary, so a little penny-pinching every once in awhile is sometimes necessary.
i love to go see movies (and there’s a movie theatre that’s only $1.50 near my house) they always make me feel good!
To be thankful for what we have right now!
Just try to not think of it and think in things of good report and good cheer
I stay positive by looking at my two healthy and happy boys, what could be better
“Honor your soul” holds a positive meaning for me.
