Seeing our negative circumstances in a different light is one key technique to life's improvement-- That is to start disciplining ourselves to have the habit of thanking God. There maybe a lot of negative things happening in life, but we need to remember: Somebody has a worse situation than we do.
If we keep on complaining and always looking at the wrong things, this will not help us. Take a reflection on the following situations:
1. Thinking of quitting your job? Somebody who doesn't have a stable job for so many years would like to have a job that is yours.
2. Want to change your old-beat up car but can't afford to buy a new one? There is someone who keeps on riding in a public transport 2-3x before reaching his/her workplace. He/she would like to have a car even if it is to be like yours.
3. Tired of taking care of your children just because you always clean the mess they make? Some couples are spending heavily for undergoing all kinds of medical procedures because they are willing to sacrifice everything to be able to clean up a mess like what your children is making.
4. Do you have poor self-image because you don't have that desired body size? Someone else who is confined in the hospital would love to have a body even if it is to be like yours.
5. Always receiving a low salary but you eat 3x a day? Someone else envies you because you belong to the top 25% of the richest people on earth.
There are more things that we need to thank God for. Just get in the habit of being grateful and then you and I will become one of the happiest people.
