Low Spirits

Many things cause low spirits, and they have a way of sticking around if you let them.

If you’ve been feeling depressed, discouraged or bummed out for a while you may just be making a comfortable bed for your unhappy feelings and who wants to leave a comfortable bed? Not me!

Low spirits are kept alive and well when you rehear depressing thoughts in your mind over and over again. Guess what? It’s time for you to make an intelligent decision, and that decision is for change. Start thinking terms of possibilities and opportunities instead of thinking about things that bring you down. It’s hard at and you may have to force yourself, but with a little practice your spirits will improve and the blue funk will subside.
