8 Comments and Pings on Creating A Vision To Live By
Oh I so believe that Happiness is a Choice and I would prefer to be upbeat and smiling than sad, depressed and filled with “Oh woe is me.”
My dear Mother taught me this many years ago. When things knock you down, it’s OK to pause and have that little weep. But then, get Before you know it, you’ll be singing in your heart again.
I wish you a wonderful weekend.
Live & Love in JOY and Drive Safely wherever you go.

Hi Kary,
Everything we do is a choice. Unfortunately, most of us choose to operate from habit rather than question our choice in the beliefs we choose to embrace.
Those choices drive us, determine the outcomes we experience and the relative level of happiness (or lack thereof) that we enjoy.
Thanks for bringing this to our attention. The excepts you’ve posted above have caused me to move this book to the top of my reading list.
Yours in excellence and mastery,
Joe
Couldn’t agree more, one of the names we thouhgt about calling our clinics was “Good Life” Chiropractic, and a possible catchphrase “A good life comes from good choices”.
I’m in!
Every morning for the pas 5 years I’ve said this quote from Abraham hicks… “Today, where ever I am, whomever I’m with, whatever I’m doing, it is my intention to look for reasons to feel good.”
It helps so much with maintaining a happy outlook on life!

Yes, it is our choice to be happy. That said…I feel great! Yes its been a tough month but I have fabulous friends who have stood by me and helped me thru my husbands recent death and now an upcoming empty nest as my son goes East to college. And do not forget the Power of Laughter!! New friends have grounded me in their love and silliness….and I feel very lucky to have them in my life,,,Everything else will follow. Open yourselves up to all kinds of possibilities
Hi Kary – I feel honored to be a part of the Happiness-Is-A-Choice revolution. I’ve always been one to look on the bright side, and connecting with like-minded souls who enjoy and cherish our lives multiplies that potent energy manyfold. Thank you for personally inviting me – I look forward to knowing you, and other members of this group, much better!
It is so true that happiness is a choice, in fact one of the wonders of being a human being is we have the ability freedom to choose what ever attitude, and response at any given time, to any given situation or circumstance. I think this is one of the most overlooked freedoms, the one that can be used to attract all good things to you.

with this easily over-looked concept…
