Lately, I've been thinking how difficult it must be for all of those that are experiencing hard times in this very trying economy. How can someone who is concerned about next month's rent or mortgage or how they are going to pay the utility bills, maintain a positive attitude? Keeping your mind focused on work, family, or anything else, when all you are feeling is fear, anxiety and worry is one of the biggest challenges anyone can face, let alone overcome.

My heart goes out to anyone who unfortunately finds themself in this predicament. Not too many years ago, I was in the same boat. At the time, I was raising children, paying a mortgage, car payment and everything that comes along with taking care of a family as a single parent. I had just lost my job
and to make mattters worse, I was in a severe car accident which laid me up for about a month. I had no one to help me except for my 15 year old daughter.Needless to say, I had many sleepless nights!

So I know a little about suffering set backs. I remember thinking then, what am I going to do? How will I manage? I also remember the lonely nights in my bedroom after my children had gone to bed crying in sheer desperation and fear and asking God to please help me to figure things out.

Somewhere during all of this torment, I was able to reach deep down in my soul and found a way to find the positives in all that I was experiencing. I decided that I had two choices; to give up and go crazy or to pick myself up and work on my problems one at a time. I started listening to every self-help tape I could afford. My favorite was always anything by Wayne Dyer. I spent a lot of time in deep meditation. I started practicing the Law of Attraction without even knowing that I was doing it! I made an effort to learn the lessons in all that happened.

I was able to turn my life around just by changing the way I think. Don't get me wrong things didn't just miraculously turn around. It took effort and some work on my part. But, the important thing is that I learned how to live my life better through positive thinking.
