Are you dooming your life?

Life is how you look at it. Look for the doom and gloom, and you'll find it. Plenty of people out there are willing to tell you how bad the world is. It all comes down to how you use your main muscle, the one few people ever flex.

I'm talking about your brain.

Most people have no control over their brain. To prove it, go ahead and stop your thoughts. I'll wait while you quit thinking. (Really try to stop your thoughts...or even just the negative ones...the ones asking you why you're reading this...yea, those thoughts...go ahead...stop them.)
Couldn't do it, could you?

You're not alone. Few can. We simply haven't been trained to take our brains and make them do what we want. Instead, our brains chase us around all day.

But look for the sunshine and gold, and you'll find that, too. It's just a matter of where you point your mental binoculars.
