"The glass is half full," is a great example of a phrase that you might tell yourself in order to keep your head above water. What do you tell yourself to stay in a good mood? One of the things I always say to myself when things are looking less than stellar is: What are you gonna do? I ask myself this not to abandon whatever problem that presents itself, but to really understand if there is anything I can do about a situation. If there is, then I try my best to fix what I can. If there is nothing I can do, then I get it out of my way as quickly as I can.

No matter how important we think they are, things are just things, and will never be as important as the people around us.

With Mother’s Day just passed, I’ve been thinking a lot about how important my mom is to me and how our whole family has gotten one another through good times and bad. Family can be just the cure for a bad day, because there’s nothing quite like mom’s home cooking for a good mood. Families are all different, and even though not all families get along 100% of the time, there is still comfort in knowing that there is someone who you can turn to unconditionally in times of need.

If you ever have those times when it seems like the day is going to be tough to face, all it takes is starting your morning off right to make sure you’ll be in a good mood all day. When I notice someone is cranky or in a bad mood, often they use the excuse, “I got up on the wrong side of the bed.” While seemingly a meaningless phrase, I wonder if those people had gotten their morning off to a good start if they would be in a better mood? I notice that if I do things for myself in the morning, it gets me off to a great start and keeps me in a good mood all day.
