Morning Mantra: “The more you practice the choice of thankfulness, the more you will have to be thankful for.” My mother gave me the book, “The Power of Positive Thinking“ by Norman Vincent Peale when I was young. I check in with it on a regular basis to remind me of this quote and the art of being thankful.  Yes, it is an art, something you must develop. A mindset you can create. Thankfulness isn’t a result of your situation, it’s an attitude of positivity despite your situation. It’s a choice. It’s a desire to look within yourself and to see the good instead of focusing on what’s wrong. This can be VERY challenging when you've got set backs, after disappointment, after difficulty. But, the moment you make the change in your mind (and your heart) will be the same time your dreams seem possible, and your life becomes more meaningful.  Despite what's going on in it at any given time. Don’t wait for things to change before you become thankful, begin with thankfulness and watch how things start to change. #BeThankful #BeHappy #BeHorsey #BeHippie #HorseHippie #MorningMantra #inspirationalQuotes #MorningMotivation #Equestrian #HorseLover #QuotesToInspire #HorseHippieBrand #HorseHippieBoutique Quote: Norman Vincent Peale
