Seeking after Praiseworthy Things

I love reading about or watching inspiring stories.
It's so uplifting
as I see other people
face obstacles
in their own lives
and overcome them
and then go on to help others.

The following is a story about
a 10 time cancer survivor.
TEN TIMES!!
Wow.
His Attitude
and Faith
are amazing.

The news article on his story reads,
"...he pushes on with faith that
God has a reason for afflicting him.
In fact, Travis says
he believes that he is blessed
to have such a 'visual' trial.
People know that he is sick,
and everyone rallies
to support him
and his family."

He knows what his purpose here on earth is.

Positive Thoughts

My Mr.
ROCKS!
I was having difficulty trying to add a button to my blog
and my smart husband accomplished this difficult feat (at least it is to me)
in under a minute or so!!

Thanks go to my sister for recommending
Hillary Weeks awesome website about keeping track of how many
positive thoughts deeds one does during a day.
I wanted to share a few of the ideas they suggest of what to click for,
"Anything that lifts, motivates and inspires us to live our potential is clickable!"

Individually
  • positive thoughts
  • compliments given and received
  • things to be grateful for
  • smiles given and received
  • i love yous
  • noticing the good in someone
  • noticing the good in a situation
  • noticing the good in yourself
  • things you believe
  • each time you have hope
  • each time you see the hand of God
  • acts of kindness
  • each time you resist temptation
  • each step closer to a goal
  • minutes of exercise
With your spouse

  • compliments given and received
  • things you love about each other
  • i love yous
  • each time you think of your spouse
  • noticing the good in your spouse
  • acts of kindness
  • each time you make each other smile or laugh

With your family

  • compliments given and received
  • completed chores - homework, making beds, brushing teeth, etc.

  • have a contest to see who can click the most in a day or a week

With your friends
  • things you appreciate about each other
  • compliments given and received

  • check in each day to support each other in your clicking goals
  • have a contest to see who can click the most in a day or a week

With your Church group
  • thoughts of the Savior
  • minutes spent reading scripture
  • thoughts of gratitude
  • choose a topic (faith, hope, love...) and click each time you witness it in your life
  • set a goal to reach a certain number of clicks together
  • acts of kindness
In the work place
  • acts of kindness
  • each time customers are serviced
  • going the extra mile
  • each time a goal is seen in action
  • positive words
