Today will be a good day.

I don't care if you think this is cheesy.

The Marines are trained using the mindset "PMA" while in combat. It's more than a phrase, it means Positive Mental Attitude.

Positive self talk is crucial for anyone who wants to feel a sense of accomplishment. It takes self discipline to wake up and say to yourself "I'm going to have an exciting day--no matter what happens."

Try this and make sure to speak positively all day long. Take any task that has been daunting you, such as deep cleaning your bathroom tub or starting that research paper you've been putting off--and tell yourself it's your absolute favorite activity. Turn the negatives into positives, the dull into bright, the defeat into victory.
