I made a resolution to be more positive,but the truth is that I think I'm positive.My problem is that if something doesn't go my way,I think "of course this is happening,I shouldn't be suprised nothing good ever happens to me."That's what I want to change that I pray for the best and think of the worst.I'm not sure if that's being negative though.I asked alot of my friends their resolutions past and present.I got answers like losing weight,quit smoking,your typical dropping bad habits resolution.What I want to try is the enhance the good things about everything.It's harder than it looks,I'm getting annoyed with myself trying to constantly see things in a positive light.I'm starting to think I should except my fate as a cynic who always assumes the worst about everything.The problem is that I don't want to be like that,waiting for something bad to happen and then feeling justified when it does.My friend and supporter Scotty made me write a list of twenty things I liked about myself and even he was suprised that I could think up 20 things since I usually complain,especially to him about things I don't like about myself.So for 2010 my new years resolution is be positive,I'm not going to be naive and think that everything is always fine but I'm going to hope for the best and mean it.It's already working for me,whenever I think something is impossible I just reevaluate the situation and it works.I'm tempted to ask a question like "so what's your new years resolution?" but that would imply that I would get more that one response,even one is hoping for too much,you see that negativity just creeped up on me.I'm going to leave that question just in case.
