Redirect Your Energy

A few days ago I went to get my nails done and while sitting in the chair I kept hearing a " beeping" noise.

It was very bothersome!. "Beep", "beep", "beep" and on and on and on it went! I asked the manicurist, "What is that?" I didn't hear her well, so I started to look in the direction that I thought it was coming from...still, I couldn't locate. And naturally that bothered me. It appeared as though the beeping noise intensified as I became more annoyed. Then after awhile, I realized that my attention was now on my nails! My thoughts were directed on something else that was relaxing and enjoyable.

(That beeping noise I no longer heard, although it never stopped) As I sat there I thought "wow" , isn't that how we are sometimes? We're so focused on what's wrong....so intensely that it can truly take the joy out of what's in front of us. Then as soon we direct our thoughts elsewhere, on something "positive" & stay focused on "that"... we channel our energy in a good way. The noise never left the nail salon, but what did leave were my negative thoughts about how it got on my nerves.

Today, channel your energy somewhere else. Take it to a place that's productive.Think of what's good and what's right, rather that what's a bother.

Eventually, it won't be such a nuisance to you.
