8 Tips to Help Create a Positive Mental Attitude

1. You are powerful.

Yes.

What we are is far greater, far superior, far more important, and far more mysterious than our mind tries to define. This is why we are far more powerful than we think we are. We are MORE POWERFUL than THE VIRUS itself.

Let go and embrace the moment, whether it contains an obstacle or an opportunity. Stop fussing over small matters...
