Pollyanna gets a bad rap

August 20th, 2009 by Col

Pollyanna gets a bad rap.

The world at large may snarkily label the eternal optimist “Pollyanna.” But y’know what? There’s a big difference … I might even venture to say a bi-hi-HIG difference … between

  • calling the gray sky blue

and taking the time to remember that

  • the rain sounds nice on the roof
  • watering the plants today was already taken care of for me
  • the birds look so cute splashing around
  • it was hot and sticky before and now it’s not

I’m just sayin’.

We all know (you know this, right?) that what we focus on expands. You think, “I’d really love to drive a VW Bug” and suddenly they are popping up all over the highway. I mean, everywhere, right?

So I say take advantage of that principle and bring some good stuff in. What do you dig about here and now? What floats your boat?

“What we ask you to do is practice moving your gaze. Practice changing your perspective. Practice talking to different people. Practice going to new places. Practice sifting through the data for the things that feel like you want to feel and using those things to cause you to feel a familiar place. In other words, we want you to feel familiar in your joy. Familiar in your positive expectation, familiar in your knowing that all is well, because this Universe will knock itself out giving you evidence of that Well-being once you find that place.”

— Abraham-Hicks

    I think this is my favorite thing I’ve read all month!

    How can I get this on my blog, Col? I’m off to go insert a link to your blog, but I’d love this post in particular to be seen by my audience …

  2. Col Says:

    Aw, thanks Jeannette! Coming from one of my favorite authors, that’s a huge compliment! I’d love to be on your blog … Will DM you

    Oooh I like this practice moving your gaze concept better than changing your perception (even though that’s what it is) it feels softer . easier.. more natural :)

  4. Janette Says:

    LOL – when people say I’m being “a Pollyanna” they think they’re putting me down – but I take it as the biggest compliment they can come up with.

    If they only knew… Tee hee!
