I found these tips for positive thinking in one of my textbooks and I thought I'd share them with you guys! I hope you enjoy these and try to give some of these free gifts this holiday season. Don't let their price fool you, they're worth much more than any Christmas gift! :)
1. Give a smile to everyone you meet (smile with your eyes)-- and you'll smile and receive smiles
2. Give a kind word (with a kindly thought behind the word)-- you will be kind and receive kind words
3. Give appreciation (warmth from the heart)-- you will appreciate and be appreciated
4. Give honor, credit, and applause (the victor's wreath)-- you will be honorable and receive credit and applause
5. Give time for a worthy cause (with eagerness)-- you will be worthy and richly rewarded
6. Give hope (the magic ingredient for success)-- you will have hope and be made hopeful
7. Give happiness (a most treasured state of mind)-- you will be happy and be made happy
8. Give cheer (the verbal sunshine)-- you'll be cheerful and cheered
9. Give encouragement (the incentive to action)-- you will have courage and be encouraged
10. Give a pleasant response (the neutralizer of irritants)-- you will be pleasant and receive pleasant responses
11. Give good thoughts (nature's character builder)-- you will be good and the world will have good thoughts for you
