Keep Moving

Sometimes they just rushed around all day. S. Gullikson

Surround Your Self with Positive Energy
It is uplifting to surround yourself with positive people and positive feelings or with beauty or with anything else that gives you positive vibrations.  Similarly, it can be very destructive to surround yourself with negative people, with negative attitudes or with negative surroundings.  Our surroundings influence our moods, our actions, our decisions, and our options.

Talk Positively
Positive talk will reinforce positive actions.  Deleting negative words from your vocabulary can change your reality because it changes the way you describe your situation to your Self and to others.  If you think, talk and act in a positive manner, you will “walk tall,” as my mother would say.

Change Your Surroundings
One tactic for enhancing creativity is to alter your surroundings.  This is one reason that we take trips when we are feeling a bit confused.  You can also alter your home or social atmosphere, or your memberships and clubs. New surroundings lead to new perspectives.

Turn Thought to Action
It is so easy to become complacent or dormant.  Change often requires a time to care for one’s Self, to renew one’s spirit, to reanalyze one’s situation.  Such reflection can be good.  But when do we stop thinking, planning and reacting, and become more action-oriented?

It takes action to get from here to there, just like we must walk, drive or do something if we are here and want to be there.

Know When to Act
There are times to be quiet and times to act.  Bold moves have a special magic and power.  Pick your battles carefully.
