Tip #5: "As a man believeth in his heart so is he"

Tip #5: "As a man believeth in his heart so is he"


Have you ever been depressed? I have too. I think everyone has. Why is it that we get depressed? I believe that it is because of what we are focusing on.

Are we focused on what is true, beautiful, excellent, and worthy of our time and energy? I learned five questions about 20 years ago that have helped me to get my attitude back in order. Everything begins with attitude. Doesn't it?

Here are the five questions to ask ourselves when we are down:

Please come up with at least 3 answers for each question.

1. What am I grateful for?
2. Who loves me/who do I love?
3. What am I excited about?
4. What am I proud of?
5. What am I grateful for? Answering this one twice is important. :-)


I just went through these questions myself. I have a big smile on my face and tears of joy in my eyes.
