I have resolved to have a peaceful day

I am certain that many people on here say that we can choose what we think and can make a goal to be reasonably positive.


Today I resolve to be at peace and to have a good day.

Way to go!
I myself do have the negative thoughts pop up, but I have the choice to follow them, or quickly refocus on the good and steer a good course.
Affirmations are great -especially in the morning! We can be a lot stronger than we think we are. My attitude is so important. Thanks for the reminder.

Great big hug for you sweetie... I don't know that we can decide a day will be good but we can do the best we can to take steps to help ourselves and it's great that you're trying to do that..

Sorry it's not going as well as you hoped for.... Deep breaths and a great big hug of comfort for you...xo

I think it's not so much that we "decide" to have a good day, but rather how we re-act to situations in our day..

And then comes in the Bipolar factor.....some days are just going to be @&$% , brain chemistry

((hugs))
for the positive thoughts you have !

Fabulous goal. However our thoughts are produced by sensations in the body. Thoughts are random many times. So if a random negative thoughtcones thru you can say " a thought is just a thought" then acknowledge ant strong feeling and let it all go on by. Then choose an opposite cheerleading ( positive) statement in it's place. Otherwise maybe even having a positive mantra may help you to remain more positive generally.

    I'm feeling down,, and got alot on my mind right now.  I got grief going on, on top my depression and anxiety and now I got to worry about somewhere to live since I can't afford living here since my mom passed.  So many bad things have happened since my mom passed.  One thing after another it seems.  Yesterday our fence fell from a storm that hit, had to call someone to prop it up.  Thank...
