Preview. Review. Re-Mind! As we prepare to tidy up and enrich ourselves on these last 5 sets of Two Little Words, in today’s post, I am asking for you to take a very big leap of faith. For you see, today’s short post is really more about tomorrow’s longer post. However, tomorrow’s post is based on today’s post. Got it? Good. Here’s the leap that I need you to take today: At some point in your life, preferably now, I’d like for you to change the meaning of the word "reminder" for you, your family, your friends, and everyone we know. After today, instead of thinking of the word “reminder” as a prompt, cue, recap, or helpful tool to help you remember something, I’d like for you to deconstruct and repurpose the word "reminder" and subsequently see it as “re-MIND-er”. Expanding on this concept… To help change the world into a community of optimistic realists, I sincerely need you and everyone we know to get better at purposefully removing certain things from our minds… and then replacing those things with something entirely different. I want to release what is there (in your mind)... …and then I want to install something different. As we clear up our thoughts, thanks, and those things thereafter, I want to re-MIND your way of thinking into something, somehow, and some way in which you have never THOUGHT possible. Yes… I want to serve as your re-MIND-er. If you concur, please read on… First, let’s preview and agree on this: No matter what people say to you… it’s just data. It’s facts, figures, fibs, flagrant fabrications, and fantastic fantasies that are rarely ever true. Interestingly enough, when people say bad things about other people, nothing really changes. So why say bad things about other people? In fact, why say bad things about anything? Wouldn’t it be better to accept people for who they are… while making yourself better than you were? Better yet: Wouldn’t it be best to see the world from an optimistically realistic point of view? If we can, indeed, do this, we can plan for the worst, and hope for the best. And as long as we have hope, we have the wealth of "we" and what "we" could be. This is The Ideal. Secondly, if you have missed a few days in this series, I will soon post a page with all of the Two Little Word combinations, You can take your time, and read through them; relax. Lastly, I will reiterate the meaning and implication of the term re-MIND-er; It’s all about setting and re-setting the mind… your mind… your mindset. You, my friend, have an unlimited power to change your mind. And as I have previously said, you are the most important person in the world… when it comes to you. You are also the most powerful person in the world… when it comes to you. The purpose of this particular post is to help you see a different point of view. However, this specific post is merely a request with a very specific guide. On the path of life, you are the driver. You control the direction, the speed, and the ultimate destination. As you create and re-create your path ahead, please remember this: When we increase the number and associated percentage of happy thoughts in our minds (when we set our MIND up with a full tank of happier thoughts and plans), we are much more likely to select a happy thought when we reach into the far recesses of our mind for a solid solution to an unhappy situation in our lives. Re-MIND YOURSELF today… You’re going to need a whole new mindset for tomorrow’s post. Aloha,
