Strategies of Success: Holiday Stress Part 2

THANKFULLNESS
When we are as busy as we all are this time of year, it's easy to be cranky and stressed.
Here's a list of some of the things that irritate us the most...and why if we look at things differently as my quote at the bottom of this email says, we might be more gratefulinstead of frustrated.

I received it from one of my favorite siteswhose name says it all, The Happy Guy. If youwant to link to him directly, check the end ofthe email.

I am thankful for the wife who says it's hot dogs tonight, because she is home with me, and not out with someone else.

I am thankful for the husband who is on the sofa being a couch potato, because he is homewith me and not out at the bars.

I am thankful for the teenager who is complainingabout doing dishes because it means she is at home,not on the streets.

I am thankful for the taxes I pay because it means I am employed.

I am thankful for my huge heating bill because it means I am warm.

I am thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have enough to eat.

I am thankful for all the complaining I hear aboutthe government because it means I have freedom of speech.

I am thankful for the lady behind me in church who sings off key because it means I can hear.

I am thankful for the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours because it means I am alive.

I am thankful for weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it means I have been capable of working hard.

I am thankful for my shadow that watches me workbecause it means I am out in the sunshine.

I am thankful for the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot, because it means I am capable of walking and I have been blessed with transportation.

And finally, I am thankful for too much e-mail because it means I have friends who are thinkingof me.

So send this to someone you care about. I just did.And thanks for being part of my newsletter community!
