Yup, that's a really great plan smile Where our attention goes, our energy follows.

Maybe you do this already, but I like to end the day with lying in bed and trying to think of one thing I'm especially grateful for that day. And then another, and another...

And sometimes when I wake up, I try and think of the things I'm looking forward to that day as well. Just to try and set my mind off on a positive track.

Heck, I've even been known to trawl positive/inspirational quotations on Pinterest and read a bunch of those, and read them until I can't stop myself being affected by them and smiling.

Tough journey though...
