A simple change in perception gives the power to see the world in a whole new light. Whether it be a physical change such as location or placement in a room, or a new outlook on life, the way things are viewed changes the way they are seen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Your attitude is yours, and yours alone. How you react to an event is ultimately more impactful than the actual occurrence itself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

It is all too easy to get sucked down the \u201cwoah is me\u201d toilet. Everyone is out to get you, the world is a sort of gray, even cookies taste off putting. It\u2019s a pretty crappy place to be.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I have been in the dumps for a few months. Writing wasn\u2019t enjoyable, baking carried no interest, background noise of my favorite playlist sounded like nails on a chalkboard. I was letting life happen to me instead of owning it and my outlook had been mighty bleak at best. I was becoming the person I despised. I knew that I needed to flush the negativity, the hate and anger, and the sadness, but I didn’t know where to start.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

My home workspace over the last two years has changed rooms multiple times. I was in the craft room, the closet, the empty living area downstairs and finally the kitchen table. The goal was to finish the downstairs and make it a new enjoyable place to work and live. I believed that a new environment would give me my groove back.\u00a0 I set that goal months ago. I would paint a little, and give up. Move some furniture, and put it back. The results were a couch in the middle of the room, half painted walls, and a desk that was covered in clutter. I dreaded going down stairs and avoided it other than to feed the cats and do the laundry. I gave up on creating my serene work area and lived in the kitchen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I don\u2019t know why life changing epiphanies have to happen at four in the morning on a Saturday when I can sleep in. The \u201cme\u201d of the last three months would have been upset, rolled over grumbling and put a pillow over my face. But this wake-up call truly set my gears in motion. Getting up and out of bed before the birds started chirping was perfect timing. I needed the whole day to reset, refresh and get my head out of the commode. I made the decision to stop reacting and start doing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Saturday morning’s call to action led me to where I am this morning. Only forty-eight hours later and I am at my desk, in a beautiful, organized room, enjoying putting these words on the screen.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I have found my positivity. It started with a bit of unexpected early morning motivation and left me with a new sense of peace.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I am reinvigorated. I am ready to start this week with an umph I hadn\u2019t felt in way too long. While I only updated my working area, the side effects of a new space have allowed me to spruce up my mental and emotional health as well.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I will not bullet point the steps to find happiness, as I am not a licensed professional, however here is my advice to you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Be brave enough to be self aware.<\/span><\/p>\n

Make the conscious, or unconscious, decision to make a positive change.<\/span><\/p>\n

Choose to own your reactions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Do something to change your perspective. Paint, turn your desk to face the window, hang a plant.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Your boss, your friends, your family, and even the plumber will appreciate it. <\/span><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
