You’ve got to accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affirmative

Don’t mess with Mister In-Between

You’ve got to spread joy up to the maximum

Bring gloom down to the minimum

Have faith or pandemonium’s

Liable to walk upon the scene

Excerpt from a song : AC-CENT-TCHU-ATE THE POSITIVE lyrics by Johnny Mercer

I love this song! Words to live by.

Too many times we do the opposite, we spend time focusing on the negative, which gets us absolutely nowhere, but stuck right where we are.

No matter how challenging a situation may seem, take the time to find the good in it. Like the song says ” Have faith or pandemonium’s liable to walk upon the scene”.

So let’s stop today, regroup and focus on the positives in our lives and see how we feel. I can guarantee it will be a much more joy-filled day than if we did the opposite. And remember “Don’t mess with Mister In-Between”.

Have yourselves a positively, affirmative day!
