I challenge you to try the following
For the next 90 days...watch what is on your mind and especially watch what
you say. Stay away from any complaining and only expect and speak Gratitude
and Thankfulness for everything......including the things you cannot yet see.
You will be amazed at what will happen......and here is another secret......it is
has already been proven that it only takes 21 days to start a new habit....so
if you take the challenge for 90 days.......you will have a new habit of thinking
and speaking in terms of Gratitude only and your old self will be gone.
The bible says to be transformed by the renewing of your mind...the 90 day
challenge, if followed....will begin that transformation!
So my only question is.....'Will You Take The Challenge?' or will you just read
this a like and lip service and then forget about it............the Choice is Yours.
2017 is going to be amazing. I can see many of you have a great year.

I'm very positive, and I've tried this before, and found it very tough to do, but it can't hurt-It's a noble thing, Ken.
Rick, most things worth while are a little difficult.
You can do it if you really want to. Be great!
Love this, Ken.
I absolutely agree with you and will keep on doing this each day as I do.
It already is a great 2017! Here's to all of our success as it increases each day.
Og Mandino is one of my favorites. Thank you, great quote.

Thank you Margy, yes I have read all Og Mandino's
books. He is one of my sources of knowledge.
You've been reading my mind Ken. I've been thinking, walking and talking gratitude and thankfulness for years.
Yes Marion, it makes life and business so much better.
It also makes us smile more, that makes others wonder
what we know. I love it. I think it makes my health better.
Hi Ken, I live a positive-minded lifestyle for most days. I smile easily, wake up in a good mood and go to sleep in a good mood. I must give thanks at least a dozen times a day. So I tell you this to say that I am diligent in my efforts.
However, I live with a spouse who is prone to complaining and seeing the negative in everything. He also likes to listen to certain internet radio shows where it's just a steady diet of all the wrong things in the world.
So, I will accept your challenge just to see if I can get better at doing what I am already practicing. But this time I will be more aware and purposeful. Getting rid of him is out of the question.. He has some redeeming qualities...he is also ill and this might account for his demeanor.
I just started back at WA after a year of "dooms day the world is going to h**l and you might as well accept it".....I just quit working and believed the lies. I knew I had to change something - so here I am again.
By the way, I never left. I had paid my membership and just froze. I am back with a vengeance and will not look back!
So thank you for your challenge and your timely post.

Angela, I can relate to the negative spouse.
I love her for her many other qualities.
We all have negative people in our lives,
we deal with this in a positive way.We are
glad to have you back with us here at WA.
This will be you year when you complete
this challenge. Then live by your new experience.
Hi Ken
This is a great challenge. There is so much negativity around and I want to throw it off so I can stay focused on the positive, and help others around me be more positive too. I am going to take your 30 day challenge to be in control of who I am and how I affect others around me. I think we need to be very mindful of maintaining our positive and grateful mindsets as negativity is so contagious and can sneak up on us. (In spite of life happening, I have actually been more aware of late of how lucky I have been in my life, and have been saying 'thank you' daily, but this is a great challenge to really commit to staying in gratitude and positive mindset mode).
Thank you for your wonderful post.
I don't know if it is just me, the time of the season, my age or something else entirely but I have already begun to give thanks for my life, my family, my job, my weaknesses, and my struggles. I like your idea of this 90 day challenge. Count me IN.
