Whenever I think about my Wednesday Wisdom quote I always like to think about my state of mind and how I’m feeling at the time, whether that’s positive, or negative. I feel it’s important to capture what’s present at that given moment. Not only will it then be relevant but it will be great to look back on in months and years to come. It will be interesting to see the peaks and troughs and the ups and downs.
There’s been a few negative weeks and last week was obviously a positive week (thanks for all the kind words by the way!) This week I wanted to extend the positivity, for the simple reason being, at the moment I’m feeling really content and happy.
For several reasons. Obviously last weeks Huff Post news has made me super chuffed and optimistic about my writing. But for the first time this year I’ve started to look forward to Christmas (this will increase furthermore once I’ve finished the monotonous shopping – not a fan!) I’m looking forward to the Little Man’s fourth(!!!) Birthday. I have new hair that I am so, so happy with. I mastered the art of the curling wand at the weekend and it’s like I have become this new person with it. For years I’ve wanted Carrie Bradshaw hair and now I can have it whenever I want! It’s true what they say about a new hairstyle making you feel a million dollars!
I don’t know what it is exactly, but even after a week of Little Man being poorly and having minimal sleep myself, I just feel happy. Like, really happy, for the first time in ages.
So, I’m putting it down to this. Obviously last week was a good week. It put me in a positive mood. My confidence and belief in myself rocketed and I think it changed my whole outlook. This week’s quote kind of sums it up.
“Your mind is a powerful thing. When you fill it with positive thoughts, your life will start to change”.
I hope you are all having a great week, and if you’re not, then I hope this week’s quote helps pick you up.

Hahaha – go treat yourself, you deserve it more than anyone! 🙂 x
We use a staggering fractional percent of our minds. Our brains are capable of so much. And yes you can actually change your situation with positive thinking. How lovely you can honestly say you feel happy. Very few people truly can. PS can you teach me how to curl my hair?! Thanks for joining us on #candodcuddles
I realise I am very lucky and I’m sure there will be a time when I’m not so positive, that’s human nature, but at the moment I’m very content. I’m going to make the most of it.
Ps – it’s all in choosing the right curling tongs!! 😀
