Today I am posting my first blog about using humor and a positive attitude to face life's ongoing challenges. I have struggled through being bald from cancer; the joys and trials of single parenting; working full-time while going back to school; financial frustrations; a messy divorce; and worst of all, the horrors of dating. I am amazed at how often minor irritations; past history; and worrying all negatively affect the quality of my life. The number one lesson I’ve learned is being positive isn't something I obtain and then have. Having a positive attitude is a day to day, moment to moment, choice. Like a pro athlete, I have to constantly train my thoughts to remain positive. And like the athlete, I have to accept that I will have bad days, injuries, and setbacks. The only way I can fail, is to quit. I am constantly reminding myself to focus on my blessings and keep perspective on my challenges. I have written a book, Operation Attitude, and speak on this topic. My goal is to help both myself and you the reader to remain upbeat and positive. I hope you can laugh with me as I slip and slide over one banana peels of life.
