       To state it more plainly, our mouths release life to us both in the good times and in the harder times. Our words can make us feel emotionally up, or feel emotionally down. A way we can curse ourselves, and make ourselves feel even worse, is when we image the worst is going to happen in a situation, instead of imaging that good is going to happen. Instead of believing for something good, we believe and are anticipating something bad. Most of us are used to speaking something negatively and watching more negative come, but we need to try speaking positively and watching good things come. I believe you will be amazed by the difference that speaking positively will make for you. But, remember, you have to ‘believe’ that good is going to happen. You have to ‘believe,’ accept it, in your mind. I can say something good, but if I didn’t really believe what I said, it’s not going to have as strong an impact. And if we find it hard to believe that good is going to happen inside our minds, we should go against those thoughts and speak positively anyway.
