Chapter Two. What’s the deal with feelings? I never thought that I would say this because I always believed that feelings don’t control us. Now I believe that feelings are a God-given set of tools for us to use. Think of it as if we are born with a set of tools to be used at our disposal. Babies who are hungry or need their diaper changed use their emotions to tell us something is wrong. They do not know they are using their emotions; they just are. There is no law that says we have to stay in a certain mood. The good thing is since feelings are tools, then we can always put down the tool we are using and pick up the tool that would be better for us to use. For example, if you wake up in the morning on the wrong side of the bed and you are dreading the day, nothing seems to be going right. And you just woke up. Right then, play your favorite song – music is very positive – remember the good things in your life, listen to an uplifting message, or write a song of thanksgiving. Say a prayer, give someone a hug, or read a Scripture from the Bible. Just do whatever it takes to get that right tool in your possession. Say to yourself I don’t need this negative tool right now, and I am going to use my good feeling tool to make my day go the way that I want it to go. This puts you in control of your feelings, which in turn controls how your life goes. It is never all bad. Regardless of how you are thinking and feeling, there is still some good somewhere in your life. There has got to be in your life a system that keeps you tapped into the power and energy of God and feeling positive. What is it? Only you can answer that. Life is meant to be lived in an abundant manner. Abundance comes from living in the positive. There is a story in the Bible about two blind men who kept following Jesus, crying out and saying, “Son of David, have mercy on us.” (Matthew 9:27) Jesus asked them if they believed that he was able to return their sight to them, and they responded, “Yes, Lord.” Matthew 9:29 states, “Then he touched their eyes, saying according to your faith let it be to you.” This verse is so important for us to understand. Jesus is essentially saying that we all can tie into the God-given power that exists in the world. Whether we love life, hate life, whether we are positive or negative, whether life is good or bad is totally up to us. Jesus has given us the power, and we can attract good or bad through the good and bad power that exists in the world. Do you treat yourself the way that you want others to treat you? If you expect good things in your life, you will receive good things in your life. I know what you’re thinking: I have all kinds of negative things that happen to me. Well, if you think that you are going to go through life with no bad things happening, you are kidding yourself. Bad things happen to everyone. The positive people who believe do not allow these bad things to push them over the edge of the negativity mountain. They understand that things happen, and it is a challenge to get around these things in a positive way. They are getting experience that will help them with the next problem, and it is all good. Positive people don’t allow this thing that happened in their life to submerge them in the sea of negativity. I noticed that in life we have a huge amount of people who like to judge. They do not like us because of the way we look, act, the music we like, who we know, what we eat, our sexual preference, the way we talk, and every other thing that you can think of. I personally have had people dislike me because I am a happy person. Little do they know that I was not always a happy person. I’ve had a difficult life. It is only because I choose to be happy that I am happy now. I believe that I deserve to be happy, and so I will continue to be happy. The successful, happy people don’t allow the judgment of others to germinate and destroy them in their thinking. Most successful people do not allow negative judgments against them in. They don’t need it; they are on a mission. Successful people pick up their joyful expectation feeling tool knowing that the bad things in life will pass, and they will move on to a sunnier day. Take an inventory of your feelings toolbox. You have good and bad feeling tools:
Feelings that you need to pay attention to but not allow you to control you are:
