If you needed to choose between optimism and pessimism? Between beautiful or ugly? Between peace or angst? Which would you choose? Which stories do you want to cling to?

Given the option, we choose the more positive of the outcomes when we have no other information. And yet, every single day,  we choose to cling to the bad. 

But what if we didn’t do this? What if instead we realized that we can control so much of our lives  and so much of our world around us simply because we control our thoughts.and our perceptions. We make things as they are simply because we’ve already decided in our heads that’s how they are.

We can’t control the world – we can’t take away all of the negative. But by only focusing on the negative, we can take away all of the positive. So instead, let’s just start by clinging to the good. Assuming the best. Jumping to the best possible scenario instead of the worst. Choose your own adventure, and choose the good.
