The Optimists Creed
~ Christian D. Larson

I Promise Myself…

To be so strong that nothing can disturb my peace of mind.

To talk health, happiness, and prosperity to every person I meet.

To make all my friends feel that there is something worthwhile in them.

To look at the sunny side of everything, and make my optimism come true.

To think only of the best, to work only for the best and to expect only the best.

To be just as enthusiastic about the success of others as I am about my own.

To forget the mistakes of the past and press on to the greater achievements of the future.

To wear a cheerful expression at all times and give a smile to every living creature I meet.

To give so much time to improving myself that I have no time to criticize others.

To be too large for worry, too noble for anger, too strong for fear, and too happy to permit the presence of trouble.

To think well of myself and to proclaim this fact to the world, not in loud words, but in great deeds.

To live in the faith that the whole world is on my side, so long as I am true to the best that is in me.

Today’s quote

Today I smiled, and all at once things didn’t look so bad.
Today I shared with someone else, a bit of hope I had.

Today I sang a little song, and felt my heart grow light,
And walked a happy little mile, with not a cloud in sight.

Today I worked with what I had and longed for nothing more,
And what had seemed like only weeds, were flowers at my door.

Today I loved a little more and complained a little less,
And in the giving of myself, I forgot my weariness.

Today’s quote

Children Learn What They Live
~ Dorothy Law Nolte

If a child lives with criticism,
He learns to condemn.

If a child lives with hostility,
He learns to fight.

If a child lives with ridicule,
He learns to be shy.

If a child lives with shame,
He learns to feel guilty.

If a child lives with tolerance,
He learns to be patient.

If a child lives with encouragement,
He learns confidence.

If a child lives with praise,
He learns to appreciate.

If a child lives with fairness,
He learns justice.

If a child lives with security,
He learns to have faith.

If a child lives with approval,
He learns to like himself.

If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,
He learns to find love in the world.

Friendship
~ Jean Kyler McManus

“A friend is someone we turn to
when our spirits need a lift.

A friend is someone we treasure

And makes the whole world we live in
a better and happier place.”

Today’s Happy Wednesday Broadcast is about making positive affirmations.

First…what is an affirmation?
An affirmation is a statement designed to bring positive change in oneself or into one’s life. It should be stated AS IF the desired outcome has already occurred or is in the process of occurring, not as something that will happen in the future.

How can affirmations change your life?

Tune in and listen to the Happy Wednesday Ladies as they each share one of their favorite affirmations.

Don’t have a favorite affirmation?
Feel free to use Angie’s or Joanie’s affirmation to help you get started.

Earth Day Celebration

Happy Wednesday!
Welcome to the Happy Wednesday Broadcast…
For another midweek BOOST to help make your Wednesday a
“Power” Day and banish “hump” day from your life forever.

And now here is your host, the Happy Wednesday Lady, Joanie Winberg

Happy Earth Day!

Turn up your speakers to listen to today’s Happy Wednesday Broadcast!

Today’s Quote
“The care of the Earth is our most ancient and most worthy, and after all our most pleasing responsibility. To cherish what remains of it and to foster its renewal is our only hope.”
~ Wendell Berry

Today’s Empowering Tip

What can you do to celebrate “Earth” day – today and everyday?
What is your commitment to the earth?

Imagine if we all make a conscious decision to live “green” everyday what a tremendous impact that would make on the entire world.

As Oprah says- “Going Green 101: What your family can do today!”

One simple little thing your family could do starting today- unplug all appliance and television power cords when not in use. This will conserve energy and save you money.

The Happy Wednesday Broadcast is dedicated to making a difference in the world as a “Friendly” weekly reminder to empower yourself every Wednesday, by doing such things as an act of kindness or forgiving someone. Now we have added one more thing to the list; consciously do something to celebrate the earth every Wednesday.

Special Message from Joanie Winberg, The Happy Wednesday Lady…

Would you like to help make a difference and be “highlighted” on the Happy Wednesday Broadcast?
Simply e-mail your inspirational video, audio or poem with tips to jw@joanwinberg.com with the words Happy Wednesday Broadcast in the subject line. Once accepted we will also include a short introduction about you or your business and a link to your website.

Our mission is for everyone to become aware of how they can make a difference for just a few minutes every Wednesday by choosing one or more of the following:

- Do an act of kindness.
- Forgive someone- make amends with a relationship gone sour.
- Call someone and tell them how much you care.
- Do something special for yourself or the earth.
- Have FUN and laugh more often.

Until next week, have a Happy Wednesday!

Recipe for Happiness

admin — Wed, 08 Apr 2009 03:11:05 +0000

Happy Wednesday!
Welcome to the Happy Wednesday Broadcast…
For another midweek BOOST to help make your Wednesday a
“Power” Day and banish “hump” day from your life forever.

And now here is your host, the Happy Wednesday Lady, Joanie Winberg

Today’s Tips
Warning:
This recipe may cause intense happiness and works best when doubled and tripled.
Excessive portions will bring prosperity in all good things.

Recipe for Happiness

Ingredients:

1 cup Positive Assumptions
1 heaping spoonful of Perspective
3 Good Things
Tons of caring for yourself and others

Directions:
As a base, place one large cup of positive assumptions in a big bowl. Use positivity blended with hope, optimism and gratitude (not available in most media outlets).

Add one heaping spoonful of perspective (fresh is best). To accelerate the process, engage others for an even broader perspective. During this step, please wear rose-colored glasses.

Stir in 3 Good Things. Add one good thing about yourself, one good thing about family, and one good thing about work. Start with 3 Good Things but feel free to add additional to taste.

Stir all ingredients together with an attitude of possibility and love and let rise and bake at 98.6 degrees for several hours, days, weeks, months and years. This recipe serves several people. Once you consume this, you will infuse many others and you and your happy friends will be able to perpetuate happiness as long as you choose.

As a garnish, fill your plate with tons of caring for yourself and others. Take hot baths, talk to friends, laugh and play. Take action to help others accomplish their dreams, hold the door open, say thank you and express your love.

With regular consumption of this recipe you will NOT be one of the 70% of Americans who report being less than very happy. Or one of the 46% percent of workers who feel unappreciated. Or one of the 54% of Americans concerned about the level of stress in their everyday lives. And you will AVOID higher medical costs, lower work efficiency and missed days at work.

Today’s Quote-
“Just when the caterpillar thought the world was over, it became a butterfly.”
~ Unknown author

Today’s Tip-
When we see a butterfly, our thoughts may be…what a beautiful creature! How wonderful to fly about freely, bringing beauty to whomever’s path it crosses. We don’t think about the journey that butterfly took to become this awesome display of nature.

This butterfly was once a creeping and colorless caterpillar. Who, may or may not survive harsh weather, a landscaper’s freewheeling tool or just simply the process it must undergo to become that beautiful butterfly.

And that cocoon… some say how they wish they could be in a cocoon. They see it as a “safe” place, a warm and comforting place. But, like the butterfly of this quote, it could also be construed as a dark place, a lonely place, wondering how long before the “light” shines through.

The hope of becoming that beautiful butterfly can inspire. If a little caterpillar can transform into a beautiful butterfly… what are our possibilities? The “transformation” part may be difficult. It may be a quick transformation, it may take longer.

BE PATIENT! Like a butterfly, there is beauty in all of us. When you shed your cocoon and spread your beautiful wings, the world will be waiting.

Imagine Kindness Everywhere

admin — Wed, 11 Feb 2009 03:14:56 +0000

Today’s Happy Wednesday Broadcast is brought to you by Lisa Metwaly from Minnesota.

Lisa’s husband, Jimmy, bought their café 15 years ago, when it was known as the Q Restaurant. Two years ago, business was slow, so his wife — a life coach — brought her skills onboard. Thus was born the Q Kindness Café, and business has improved.

Kindness multiplied in such great amounts at the Q Kindness Cafe that St. Paul’s mayor proclaimed the first week of every month Kindness Week. Suddenly, Lisa’s one-woman quest to ramp up random acts of kindness became more than she ever imagined.

Thank you for sharing Lisa!

Imagine kindness everywhere…people giving to give and not to get…

Imagine the life lessons we’d learn
when the gifts we gave keep on giving
in ways beyond our imagination…

Imagine the stimulation in our own lives
and the lives of others as we focus
in all that we have to give…

Imagine the reality we can create by
living in the giving and not the get…

What if each one of us invites another to give…
What if we teach the world to give…in small, thoughtful ways…

What if the giving became the stimulus
that helps us spiral up and out of any mess we’re in…

Instead of going around in a vicious circle, what if we changed one simple thing?

Give a little more. Spread kindness. Offer hope. Give of our self.

Imagine that!
One good deed deserves another and on and on…

Imagine how this could
stimulate our economy;
stimulate the world;
stimulate your world.

Create a stimulus package of your own!
Today!
Now!
And feel good knowing that you make a difference every day.

A Lesson in Love

admin — Wed, 04 Feb 2009 02:00:51 +0000

Today’s Happy Wednesday Broadcast is brought to you by Michael Jordan Segal.

Michael, who defied all odds after being shot in the head, is a husband, father, social worker, author, and inspirational speaker. His “miraculous” comeback story was first published in Chicken Soup for the Christian Family Soul. He has a CD of 12 of his inspirational short stories, entitled POSSIBLE, available on his web site. For more information, go to www.InspirationByMike.com

“A Lesson in Love”
By Michael Jordan Segal, MSW

Audio- “A Lesson in Love”

“I never liked rings. I do not wear a high school ring; I do not wear a college ring; and I did not want to wear a wedding ring. This was not because I did not want people to know that I was married, but because I just did not feel comfortable with a ring on my finger.

After graduating from college I finally was about to “pop the question” to my high school sweetheart, Sharon Gail Weingarton, who continually was at my side when I was almost fatally injured during a robbery.

Sharon was the best — pretty, kind, sweet, and good-hearted. However, what would she say when I proposed and said that I did not want to wear a wedding ring? I practiced what I was going to say to her. I thought long and hard. I finally decided that there was no answer to my dilemma. I would simply tell her, and then wait five minutes listening to her explode.

So that night I proposed, and afterwards I told Sharon that I was not going to wear a ring. I simply said: “I just don’t like rings. I don’t wear a high school ring…” I expected Sharon to become enraged: “WHAT DO YOU MEAN YOU’RE NOT GOING TO WEAR A WEDDING RING?”

However, instead, I merely heard silence. After what in my mind seemed like an eternity, Sharon calmly remarked: “Fine. If you don’t want to wear a wedding ring, I won’t change my name. I will not call myself Sharon Segal.”

On our Fifteenth Anniversary, I remembered my first lesson of marriage that was taught to me by my wife Sharon Gail Segal as I looked down upon the ring on my ring finger — COMPROMISE.”
