As you begin to contemplate the knowledge contained in Thought Reflection, you will expand your mind to new levels of awareness. Begin deconstructing and taking control of your thoughts.   The Optimist - Nearly every single piece of spiritual literature available conveys the message of optimism being the key to happiness and fulfillment in all areas of your life.  Let’s face it, being pessimistic is human nature, and none of those New Age gratitude books tell us how to transcend that.   The Power of Surrender - Most people have it all wrong – surrendering. They think in order to surrender, you must become submissive, often to another person, and this is repeated over, and over, never quite believing you’ve accomplished anything because there’s always the guilt, shame, and begging for forgiveness. You relive your experiences and feel the need to surrender all over again. Did you know that surrender is finding peace within you? It is the struggle to find the missing piece to complete who you are.  Surrender is the strength to forgive yourself, unconditionally, by honestly acknowledging what you are forgiving yourself for. And once you have the key, the Universe will take it from there. It will change you in profound ways.
