Being joyful is a choice that we can make every morning when we wake up! We have the ability to create our realities and our emotions are part of a mindset that we choose. Changing the thoughts that we allow to play in our heads, trying on new thoughts and different approaches put us in the driver’s seat. Suddenly we are responsible for our emotions, we have control and we can choose how to feel.
On a day when you are feeling down, start to make new choices. Moving from the paradigm of victim to one of creator can be fun. You can dispel your bad mood with a single choice. Try choosing to feel joy. Think about all you have instead of the things that you don’t. Find gratitude in your heart for all the blessings in your life and you will find your joy. Once you experience this feeling of positivity, it will become a way of life you want to follow every day. Resting in your joy is a most blissful and freeing thing. Your focus shifts, the world expands and your new path of thought opens up limitless possibilities for you.
Joy is an inclusive and expansive emotion; it will affect everything from your work to your relationships. It will allow you to find peace in your life, no matter what curves are thrown at you. Your approach to problem solving will change and crises will be met with confidence. Joy says that you are at home within yourself, and what can be better than that?
So, pick up the option to choose for yourself. Let go of being a victim. Allow joy to filter through your day. It may feel a little awkward at first, but the guarantee is that you will get used to the bliss and the freedom that comes with choosing joy.
