Cluster Good

“There was a little girl who had a little curl right in the middle of her forehead.  When she was good, she was very, very good, and when she was bad, she was horrid.”  Remember that old ditty?  It’s a great reminder of how bad draws in more bad and good draws in more good and how we can choose which clump–bad or good–we want to create.

Joyful Springers cluster good.  They consciously choose to lump together as much good as they can by refusing to linger too long on the bad things in life.

When something doesn’t go your way, you can complain about it and talk about it to whoever will listen.  But when you do that, you’re inviting more things to go wrong.  Instead of issuing that invitation, you can invite things to go right by turning your attention to what has already gone right for you.  For every “wrong” thing, if you really look, you’ll probably find dozens of right things to focus on, and when you focus on them, they bring in even more right things to a happy cluster of great experiences.

JUST A NOTE:  In the November 5 post of Ducky with her walking stick, wearing her Commando Ducky Outfit, I included a link where you can donate to the site if you want.  That link went wonky on me and didn’t work.  Several of you (thank you!) e-mailed me and asked me about it.  If you do want to donate, you can use the link that does work: Look to the right side of the Joyful Springer website, at the picture of Ducky that says, “I pose for treats. Donate to my treat fund?”  Click on that picture and it should take you to the Paypal donation page.  Thanks so much to those of you who have donated!!  Ducky has wagged herself silly in appreciation!

Wear A Security Blanket

english springer spaniel wear a security blanket Wear A Security Blanket

The world can feel like a scary place, but it doesn’t have to be one.

Joyful Springers wear a security blanket.  They know that their positive thought and focus attracts to them wonderful experiences.  When they look for the safety and the happiness in the world, they are safe and happy.

You can’t control everything that goes on around you by protesting this or lamenting that.  But you can control what happens to you by controlling where you put your attention.  The more you relish the safe, happy moments, the more those moments will expand to become a lifetime of joy.

… another wise tidbit from a joyful English Springer Spaniel.

[Ducky received this adorable blankie for Christmas from her Facebook friends, Beau and Breeze ... all the way from England.  She loves it AND she loves Beau and Breeze and all her Facebook friends.  . icon smile Wear A Security Blanket ]

Never Give Up


Fast Tube by Casper

Sometimes the things we want seem way too big to achieve.  They seem so big, in fact, that we don’t believe we can get them.

And the problem is that if we don’t believe we can get something, we can’t get it.  Belief is essential to attaining dreams.

Joyful Springers never give up.  They have unwavering belief in being able to have what they want, and they keep their enthusiastic focus on their desires.

You can be, do, or have anything you want.  The universe, responding to the powerful law of attraction, has the ability to bring anything to you.  But first, you MUST believe you can get it.  Once you have that believe, never give up on it.  Keep your focus on your desire, and be ready to take just a little inspired action.  The power of your focus plus your action will create miracles.

… another wise tidbit from a joyful English Springer Spaniel.

[Ducky was DETERMINED to get the huge stick (or rather, tree) that Tim threw into the river for her.  She was NOT going to give up.]
