Be open to pleasant surprises

Posted by HorrieM

Celebrate the little surprises.

Those that are unplanned and unexpected.

Nasty surprises happen often enough.

And stay with us longer.

Embrace the surprises that delight.

The happy happenstance.

A situation turning for the better.

The good in people.

A stroke of luck.

The positive interaction.

A great find.

You deserve them.

Be open to them.

Be open to being pleasantly surprised.

“Sometimes people surprise us. People we believe we know.” – Joyce Carol Oates

 

Same energy … different outcome

Posted by HorrieM

Redirect energy to where it is needed.

Refocus on outcomes that matter.

Reprioritise the priorities.

Not every now and then.

As frequently as needed.

Perhaps more often than has been.

As often as is required to be effective.

Same energy.

Different outcome.

You gave it your all.

You were focused.

You delivered.

You made an impact.

Bring on tomorrow.

Could you change your mind?

Posted by HorrieM

Definitely not!

Not at all.

No way.

Nope.

No.

I don’t think so.

Not really.

Maybe.

Sort of.

Sure.

Yes.

Yeah.

Of course.                          

Absolutely.

Definitely yes!

What have you changed your mind on?
