Swanning around

photo 614
My 3 positive things so far today
1. I had a bonus day off work and it didn't rain
2. I decided to seize the day , grab my camera and go for a walk. No watch, no phone, just me and the camera
3. I finally, finally got a close up shot of a swan. In fact I got a family. Mum, Dad and six cygnets

The family shot is in my alternative album

that 'my 3 things why i'm positive today' it's a challenge,or what?
posted September 7th, 2012  
@michellina It's a psychological technique that makes you think in a different way. I first heard about it through @wrighty (maybe she'll come over and explain it better than I can if she has time) The idea is that by thinking of 3 positive things from your day, the negatives are pushed aside. People tend to think more negatively than positively and we all have things to be thankful for. There are a few people that I know of on 365 doing this now. I think it's such a good idea. Maybe you should try it :o) xx

@psychographer I'm so glad people are still keeping this up :) I am about to add mine for the day!
posted September 7th, 2012  
@wrighty It's definitely helping me to think differently :o) xx
posted September 7th, 2012
