Your dose for today…
“Your future depends on many things, but mostly on you.” —Frank Tyger
Cheer yourself on! (Image Filepile)
How often we look outside of ourselves for solutions that we’re the answer to, right? When we want to lose weight, we can look to super diets and cleanses instead of eating less and working out more. When we’re not getting where we want to be at work, we can blame the boss, chide the system. And when we want love, it seems easier sometimes to point to the lack of partners, the flaws of dating. But the truth is, our futures depend not just on what’s coming at us, but also on how we approach our future. In fact, mostly on how we approach our future.
Use this to your advantage in every way: You have the power to change how you feel about your life and your love prospects. You have the power to see yourself and your life in a brighter light. You can be the happy, strong, wise, driven, hilarious wonderful person you want to be in love now—and you should be. Your love future depends on it.

Love this post. It is refreshing to remember that we often have the power to change our circumstances…by simply changing our attitudes. I needed this one today…thank you.
Hello Amy,
My closest single friend lent me “Meeting Your Half Orange”. I loved it so much that after reading it I went on Amazon and had my own copy shipped to me straight away. Now I am rereading it and using my orange Micron to underline all the passages I want to reflect on. Thanks so much for all your encouragement to lead a happy life so that my half orange can find me.
I wanted to share a site the I just discovered from a friend (or as I like to call it a sign to be more optimistic), 1000 Awesome Things. To add fuel to our optimistic fire: http://1000awesomethings.com/
Thank you so much,
Doni Conner
Courtney, I’m so glad you got the quote when you needed it. I think life can do that for us when we ask.
And Doni, I’m so glad you love the book. I’ve seen that website 1000 Awesome Things and it is, indeed, awesome. Thanks for passing that along, maybe I’ll do the same!
