I get a daily “meditation” in my email inbox each day from Livinglifefully.com and one that arrived recently stuck in my mind as one of the things I’ve learned over the past 12 months. That the more you dwell on your faults, the more wrapped up in them you get, there is less room for the good things, the things that make you happy.
“By keeping my mind on the positive, though, I attract more positive things to me–more positive people and situations and outcomes. And as my faults matter less and less, they go away, killed by neglect. And I may even find that some of what I thought were faults actually are among my greatest virtues!” (livinglifefully.com)
