  • ~ Morning Thoughts ~ shopping list
  • What do you think about the very first thing in the morning? shopping list
  • Your thoughts during the first half-hour of the morning will greatly influence the entire day. You may not realize this, but it is nevertheless a fact. shopping list
  • If you set out with worry and depression, and bitterness of soul toward fate or man, you are giving the key note to a day of discord and misfortunes. shopping list
  • If you think peace, hope, and happiness, you are sounding a note of harmony and success. shopping list
  • The result may not be felt at once, but it will not fail to make itself evident eventually. shopping list
  • Control your morning thoughts. You can do it. shopping list
  • The first moment on waking, no matter what your mood, say to yourself, "I will get all the comfort and pleasure possible out of this day, and I will do something to add to the measure of the world's happiness or well-being. I will control myself when tempted to be irritable or unhappy, I will look for the bright side of every event." shopping list
  • Once you say these things over to yourself in a calm, earnest way, you will begin to feel more cheerful. The worries and troubles of the coming day will seem less colossal. shopping list
  • Then say, "I shall be given help to meet anything that comes today. Everything will be for the best. I shall succeed in whatever I undertake. I cannot fail." shopping list
  • Do not let it discourage you if the moment you leave your room you encounter a trouble or a disaster. This usually happens. When we make any boasts, spiritually or physically, we are put to the test. The occult forces about us are not unlike human beings. When a schoolboy boasts of his strength, and says he can "lick any boy in school," he generally gets a chance to prove it. shopping list
  • When we declare we are brave enough to overcome any fate, we find our strength put to the test at once. shopping list
  • But that is all right. Prove your words to be true. Regard the troubles and cares you encounter as the "punching bags" of fate, given you to develop your spiritual muscle. shopping list
  • Go at them with courage and keep to your morning resolve. shopping list
  • By and by the troubles will lessen, and you will find yourself master of circumstances. shopping list

    This is beautifully written and for individuals to rate it poorly, is an insult to the author; Ella Wilcox Wheeler, not to the person who posted it. It appears to me that this recipe site continues to fall into negative territory. Shame, such a shame.

    Very nice pippy, sorry you got a low rating, some people just don't appreciate the good that can come from posting like this. My thoughts to them would be let those that want to enjoy them do so, and those that don't, then just don't bother to read the post. Does it really make you feel better to crush someone else's attempts to pass along inspirational posts by giving a low rating???

    I was waiting for the "low" rating and I know who rated it poorly. It's a shame that this person is stricken with negativity but that's the way the cookie crumbles. ;)
    I just wanted to share something I thought was beneficial and I still believe it was worth posting.
