"You’ve got to accentuate the positive"

My Refocus Workshop Journal

Daily Quote: "A smile confuses an approaching frown." Author Unknown

Body: Walking day 30 min. Your winter challenge: Eat healthful carbs, such as sweet potatoes and whole-grain pasta, to help your blood pressure, cholesterol and mood. Just stick with smart portions that won’t break the calorie bank.

Mind: Each time you come to the end of a chapter in a book you are reading, imagine that you must summarize it as briefly as possible, orally or in writing, to someone who has not read it. Do the same for the whole book when you finish it. You may want to re-cap your book in your journal.

Spirit: Remember to smile at all those you contact even on the phone. Active Smile muscles tells your brain things are good and getting better.

Emotional: Seek Pleasure, add something positive and pleasurable to life, do it every day, and make it permanent. Self-care is your responsibility, and very important. Remember the lyrics of the old song "Ac-Cent-Tchu-Ate the Positive" by  Johnny Mercer.

 “You’ve got to accentuate the positive

Eliminate the negative

And latch on to the affirmative

Don’t mess with Mister In-Between”

Day Fact: A smile is one of the most used human facial expressions. Smiles can use between 5 to all 53 muscles.
