The Sparkle Factor

Whether it’s been deliberate or accidental, the CHOICES we make play a part in our daily outcome. It’s also the DETERMINATION (or persistence) we have to stay positive and moving forward through life’s difficulties that allow us to continue to make those CHOICES. As we continue this mini-series, you will see why I chose to introduce both these letters this week.

When we choose to tackle something outside our comfort zone, in most cases, we will jump to the conclusion that we can’t do it and that it’s going to be disastrous. Why is it we always jump to the END before we even BEGIN?

Being able to have a positive attitude or mindset is the ability to look forward and BELIEVING in yourself, no matter the outcome.

With the unknown in front of us (spoiler alert: unless you have a crystal ball, there will always be the unknown!) — whether it be coronavirus, how the world is going to adapt and what does this mean for each of us — I thought it would be a great time to introduce you to “The Facets (aka ABCs) of a POSITIVE MINDSET.”  💎

In this mini-series, each episode will focus on a letter and one of the things (facets) I've learned to help me cultivate a positive mindset and share my “Sparkle Factor” with others beginning with that letter. So let’s get started with… ATTITUDE.

I’m pretty sure you’re familiar with this philosophy: “IF I do this (insert whatever you want here… ), THEN I’ll be happy”.

I'll share what I've learned in life… because you probably share some of the same feelings!

As we’ve all experienced with the changes that Covid-19, or what we know as the new Coronavirus, has forced us to do in the last 30 days, change is not comfortable OR easy.

Sometimes I need something to help me focus on an attitude or a characteristic that I’d like to develop during the year. Choosing a word is like a New Year’s Resolution, but unlike a goal that has either a succeed or fail rate associated with it, it’s a simple way to focus on what you want to be, do, feel or think and apply it in little ways throughout your life during the year (and beyond!).
