"The greatest gift you can give someone just may be the inspiration to become the best version of themselves."

"Life can be seen as a battle, but I think it's more like a dance or a game. It's a dance because the point of life is to enjoy it - it's not a destination, and a game because we can either win by finding happiness and fulfillment or lose by living in fear and hate." ―   Michael Corthell Florence Scovel Shinn Published in 1925, "The Game of Life and How to Play It" by Florence Scovel Shinn is a timeless classic that has inspired countless readers to adopt a more positive and spiritual approach to life.

The human body possesses an enormous, astonishing, and persistent capacity to heal itself. by Michael Corthell Your subconscious mind, the very gullible part of your mind that will believe anything you tell it, is there to inspire and guide you. It controls your heart, circulation of blood, regulates your digestive, takes in, (and believes everything) and releases information. It also controls all the processes and functions of your body and it basically knows the answers to all your body's problems. It guards your life and restores you to health. It never sleeps or rests, it is active and working for you 24/7. The best part? You can tell it what to do! So why not use it? Healing yourself is strongly connected with others. Healing begins through loving your neighbors and forgiving your enemies.   Your subconscious has made your body what it is and, therefore, can recreate it — it knows how to heal, through positive thought. Healing is a partnership. Healing begins

by Michael Corthell “Start now to observe all of your unpleasant, negative thoughts and change them, for until you separate yourself from the state from which these thoughts flow, they will continue to cause you to have the same experiences in life.” – Neville Goddard How To Stop Being Negative Some people, including many medical practitioners, believe that negative thinking stems from a defensive reaction. That it is the outgrowth of prevention.  It is a  defense mechanism that causes a person to look for what is wrong so that they can protect themselves from danger, but it is a very dangerous strategy by itself because our thoughts actually become things—thoughts create reality—have a negative mindset, get a negative reality. So instead of preventing bad things from happening, these negative thoughts are telling the subconscious mind to manifest them. Always dwelling on the darkness creates more darkness. The good news is, that just the opposite is true also. Negative th

  ''To be either positive or negative-minded is a choice and the decision to turn on those positive thinking vibes could be the most important choice you ever make in your entire life.'' - Michael Corthell ____________________ The  National Science Foundation  reports our brain produces as many as 50,000 thoughts per day, with a majority being inner dialogue.  In fact, we talk to ourselves most of the time. And our self-talks have become one of the main factors that influenced our overall mindset, our actions, and ultimately, the results we get in life. Below is a brief overview of how to retrain your brain to think positively and limit the negative conversations we have with ourselves.

by Michael Corthell How much time and energy do you spend worrying about tomorrow? Do you worry about what will happen next week? Or, what will happen next year? You can plan your life out, but you still need to manage the present. ''Our main business is not to see what lies dimly at a distance, but to do what lies clearly at hand.'' —Thomas Carlyle What worries you? The future? Today is a safe place.  It is a place to live securely to plan an even better tomorrow. How can you live in 'day-tight compartments' to turn the tide against worry and make yourself productive? Here are some of the basics: Love yourself. When we are worried about a big problem there are people who will support us and those who won't. Listen and feel the energy of those who support you. Reject the ones who don't.  Then give yourself a hug. Use positive affirmations and tell your subconscious mind all positives about yourself. Always keep your sense of h
