love vs like

Before you choose to become angry,
consider that your anger is not likely
to achieve anything. Remind yourself
that there is a more positive and
productive response available to you.

Before you allow an unexpected
distraction to throw you off course,
consider that you do have another
choice. You can choose to move quickly
beyond the distraction, and to stay
focused on your original task.

When you're tempted to feel resentful or
sorry for yourself, stop and consider
that such feelings will only intensify
your difficulties. Choose instead to
feel gratitude and to experience the
real empowerment it can bring.

If you just don't feel like making the
effort, stop and reconsider. Make the
most of each opportunity to create value
before that opportunity slips away.

When it seems that nothing is going your
way, consider that in every defeat there
are the seeds of triumph. Choose to find
the positive aspects and to build on them.

Before you give your time, energy and
effort to negativity, stop and
thoughtfully consider the implications
of what you're about to do. Give
yourself the chance to choose a more
positive and enriching path.

-- Ralph Marston
