Just imagine

Imagine how life would be if nothing had the power to get you down. Think of how much you could accomplish if there were no distractions to knock you off track. Consider how effectively you could respond if you were able to see the positive possibilities in every situation, and then to seize on them and bring them about.

Imagine being peaceful, calm and focused, regardless of the turmoil around you. Feel the power that would come from an ability to just accept each moment rather than fight against it. Think of how great it would be to never become annoyed.

What a powerful way to live! What an effective way to work! And it is all possible right here, right now.

Nothing can get you down unless you allow it to do so. Nothing can distract you unless you let it. The positive possibilities are always there for you to see and to manifest into reality. There’s no need to become annoyed unless you choose to do so. You have the power to make life great.

Imagine how great it would be to spend each moment with purpose and positive focus. Imagine it. Know it can be yours. And make it happen right now.

— Ralph Marston
