An Instant, A Flower, A Surf

I have a life-long pattern that I am in the process of breaking.
What I used to do was this Do-not-do-this-at-home-or-anywhere-else Process:
- Begin thinking positive thoughts about my life or about something I want.
- Get antsy and impatient when, after a few days, nothing changes.
- When something negative happens, put all my attention on the negative event.
- Lament the fact that positive thinking and the law of attraction “doesn’t work.”
- Feel really, really bad.
- Say, “See? I was right” when more bad stuff comes my way.
I can vehemently say that this process creates nothing worth talking about. (more…)
