Masterful January 7

I can feel whatever or however I want my emotions to feel.

“If I feel sad I will laugh.
If I feel ill I will double my labor.
If I feel fear I will plunge ahead.
If I feel inferior I will wear new garments.
If I feel uncertain I will raise my voice.
If I feel poverty I will think of wealth to come.
If I feel incompetent I will think of past success.
If I feel insignificant I will remember my goals.
Today I will be the master of my emotions.” ~ Og Mandino

Happiness is knowing that I can change my attitude,

my feelings, in the blink of an eye.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.

“Try again. Fail again, Fail better.” ~ Samuel Beckett

This is not a review or a critique of the poet, dramatist,

Nobel laureate, Irish born, French writer Mr. Beckett, but just a thought

brought to mind by the words “Fail Better”, which he used in his title.

Hundreds, if not thousands, of famous leaders, writers

and positive motivational speakers have espoused the virtue of looking at

every obstacle in life as an opportunity to learn, an opportunity to move forward.

Today, try, try again and if you succeed, congratulations, if not,

learn from the lesson and try another way.

Remember, insanity is trying the same thing over an over

while expecting different results.

Happiness is knowing that failure can also be God’s will.

Happiness is helping someone help themselves.
