Summer is always around the corner.
Self-Reflection Exercice
When life throws storms in my path, I know I can persevere. Just as the summer brings warm relief from the challenges of winter, my troubles are always relieved by the passing of the storm.
If I am having a difficult period in my life, my strategy is to take it one day at a time. I can make plans for one day without overwhelming myself with all the "what-ifs" of the future. I can always make it through one day, knowing that better days are just around the corner.
I let go of any tendency to feel sorry for myself and embrace action, instead. Rather than sitting around bemoaning my challenge, I seek solutions and move forward immediately to implement them.
This keeps my mind occupied with moving forward and relieves my stress of the challenge. It also helps ensure that my summer arrives as quickly as possible, putting those hard times behind me!
Another thing that gets me through the hard times is discovering the joy in everyday moments. When I allow myself to see this joy even on difficult days, it makes the time seem shorter until summer is here again!
Even if times are challenging, I can still enjoy the beauty of the dawn, feel refreshed by a warm shower, and rejoice in my partner's smile.
Today, I feel confident that no matter what this day brings I know I can get through it, because, after all, summer is just around the corner!
Self-Reflection Questions:
1. When hard times are upon me, how do I handle them?
2. Do I seek solutions and take action toward them immediately?

I create new habits to help me reach my goals.
Self-Reflection Exercice
When I set a new goal, I try to think of anything I can do consistently, on a daily basis, to help me achieve it. Then I use mental cues, affirmations, and meditation to help me create that habit.
If the new goal is a positive character trait, like greater confidence, I strive to exhibit that attitude daily. I create affirmations that remind me that I am a winner and I visualize conquering challenges with ease.
Soon enough, I realize that my habits have led me to my goal.
If I wish to become a philanthropist, I share my good fortune daily with those less fortunate, even if it is in very small amounts. The habit of automatically exhibiting this generosity catapults me to my goal.
If I wish to fund something like a new car or a vacation, I get in the habit of automatically putting away bits of money daily, like dropping all my change into a jar or strictly paying cash for my purchases to avoid overspending. These thrifty strategies become habits in a short time that help me reach my goal.
I use this strategy for every goal I set. Every time I reinforce the habit, I strengthen it, which brings me closer to my goals!
My goal, today, is to create a new habit to help me maintain an optimistic attitude, no matter what. Every time I find myself with a negative thought, I can repeat a positive affirmation to replace it.
Self-Reflection Questions:
1. Do I rely on habits to give me an automatic push toward my goals?
