15 what Ifs... To Change My Day |
What If...
(1) Everybody in the world smiled at just one more person. That would be 6 billion more smiles each and every day, do you think that would make the world a brighter place?! Now what about another two smiles…
(2) I saved just one pound towards those Christmas presents, holidays, whatever. Each year I would have an extra £365. Now what if I were to save £2…
(3) Aliens attacked the world. Do you think that we all might pull together and forget our differences as in the case of the tsunami? Now what if we do not wait until aliens attack the world…
(4) I thought that whatever project I undertook I could
not fail to complete. What sort of projects would I be thinking of? If I really could not fail, wouldn’t I reach for the Heavens?
(5) I watched half an hours less television and gave the attention to the family, exercise, special project or whatever. That would be an extra week per year. Now what if I were to watch one hour less…
(6) I woke up half an hour earlier than normal. If I done this every day, that would be an extra week per year awake. If I earn £200 per week then there is the chance to enjoy a few more little luxuries…
(7) I looked upon my work as a return of service for the gifts that I have received. Would this help me to view my occupation in a different way?
(8) I contemplated my body as something miraculous that no amount of money, any scientist or philosopher can even get near to explaining. Would I take care of it in a different way?
(9) I was to view the world as a spectator rather than someone to whom everything happens. Would I still feel the same intensity about what
was going on?
(10) I considered myself extremely privileged to be born a human being, with the opportunities that come because of the special abilities that we have.
(11) I looked upon problems as challenges that I am more than able to meet if I apply myself to them.
(12) I chose to change negative thoughts that enter my head into positive ones that lift my spirits. Would I then be better company?
(13) I knew that the thoughts that circulate in my head, if mixed with emotion, would one day be the physical circumstances that I am faced with. What thoughts would I choose to dwell on?
(14) The old saying that what goes around comes around is true. What would I choose to go with in order to receive back?
(15) I view my emotions and check to see if they are being used to work for my highest good, knowing that I have full control over them.
