10 Wise Sayings

I came across these sayings the other day. They’re a good reminder that although we may not feel in control of our circumstances, we can choose how to feel about them. I can look at what’s wrong with my life, and focus there, or I can count my blessings. I can complain or I can take some action to make my life better – and sometimes the best action is sitting down and listing everything that’s good about it. The fact is, that I have had some of the most difficult days be the best and most memorable days – all because I was able to dig through the debris and find a nugget of gold to take away.

Which of these 10 wise sayings resonates with you?

1. No one can ruin your day without YOUR permission.
2. Most people will be about as happy, as they decide to be.
3. When your ship comes in…make sure you are willing to unload it.
4. You will never “have it all together”.
5. The best way to escape your problem is to solve it.
6. A best friend is like a four leaf clover… hard to find, and lucky to have.
7. I’ve learned that ultimately ‘takers’ lose and ‘givers’ win.
8. Yesterday was the deadline for all complaints.
9. Look for opportunities…not guarantees.
10. Life is a journey…not a destination. Enjoy the trip!
