The key difference between a poor attitude and a positive attitude has nothing to do with happiness.

Being happy is not the cornerstone of a positive attitude.

Being grateful is.

While being happy all the time may seem impossible, being constantly grateful is anything but.

Dear readers, something we can all agree on

Rising Sun Motor Inn and Cabins Cabin

The quality of our work is dependent on many things.

We have all experienced this. And continue to experience this. Even as we read this.

Same with our attitude.

Sometimes we wish we had done a better job yesterday.

Go easy on yourself.

And don’t let the notion of not producing something amazing stop you from producing.

Writing everyday is a metaphor for this.

Focus on our attitude everyday. All day.

PS. Taking a break from Glacier National Park today.

Same old, same old.

Then again, there are times when those 48 hours offer something remarkable – if only we pause and reflect.
