At first light, what word comes to you? What word pops into your head to suggest something to you? Pay attention. Is it true? Are you really bad, tired, inadequate, ugly? Or are you just used to perceiving yourself in those negative ways? Isn’t it time for a new more positive word as first light breaks through, as you wake up and greet a new day? How about: “I am good, full of energy, and beautiful inside and out. I am successful, likable, and interesting. I am kind, loving, and compassionate. I am enough!” Try out some new words today and see what happens. You might discover that it really isn’t all your fault after all!
