Affirmation for August 23, 2012: Mind Your Happiness

Happiness depends more on the inward disposition of mind,than on outward circumstances.- Benjamin Franklin
Thought of the Day:
You have the power to create your own happiness, even when the people and situations around you are on the verge of chaos. And it's important that we do so in such situations. Today, pay close attention to the positive news and avoid unnecessary negativity. Also, make sure to pay thoughtful compliments where compliments are due. And, by all means, smile whenever possible. We can't always control the exterior factors that can drag us down, but we can get through them and come out better with the happiness we create for ourselves, with every choice that we make.
Have a mindfully happy day!
