PANTHER PRIDE FOCAL POINT

Welcome Back Panthers!! We hope you had a great week away.  Now, Let’s get to the Focus.  Take a quick minute and focus on a specific POSITIVE feeling, thought, or emotion….Go ahead, I’ll wait.  Got it? Ok, now that you have that set into your mind, think about this; The more you hold onto a particular thought, the more power you invest in it, the more likely it is to become reality. Positive thoughts give us energy and strength. While negative thoughts rob us of power and make us feel tired and strained. We are by nature positive. Negativity is the result of faulty thinking. You can change if you want to. You can’t control other people, situations or circumstances, but you can control what is going on inside you! It takes time to change and transform those old patterns of thinking. But the great thing is that you can start to practice it at any time. Give it a try today….. Just think Positive Panthers!
