Look At The Bright Side Of Life – Even If You Don’t Want To!

Are you a positive person or one who prefers doom and gloom in life?

There are some people who always look at the bright side, no matter what is going on.

Others seem to dwell on all the things that could and may go wrong.

Yes, things can go wrong and stuff does happen, but that is called life.

It is how you deal with everything that life throws at you that helps you grow as a person.

Maybe, we could think of general questions to sort through our worries:

What’s the worst thing that could happen? Will this matter in a few years?

Maybe, we should dump most of our worries. What can we actually do about the worries?

If we reflect on all the worries and let go of the ones we can do nothing about, it would be a major relief for us. One positive, bubbly friend with happy thoughts for life is super good for you and your outlook on life in general.

When you are being authentic and you are genuinely upbeat, people will want to be around you. You will notice things are going your way. By getting a deeper perspective about what’s worrying you, letting go of things you can do nothing about and then taking focused action in those areas which will truly impact your life positively, you will notice this has done wonders for you!

Mary Ann grew up in Brownwood, a small central Texas town. Her early love of the violin, which developed at the age of ten, and subsequent mastery of the instrument opened many opportunities for her. She was mentored and prepared for her musical journey from the director of the Abilene Philharmonic Orchestra. She auditioned and was selected to join the Blue Jeans Symphony Orchestra. The orchestra was underwritten by Levi Straus Blue Jean Manufacturer and the City of Estes Park, Colorado. Two musical students from each state were selected and concerts were given each Sunday afternoon in a natural amphitheater in the Rocky Mountains. Mary Ann remains an alumnus of this group which is an active symphony now making their home in Breckenridge, Colorado. Mary Ann also played in the Las Vegas, Wichita Falls and Austin Symphony Orchestras.

She had a busy career beginning at the Governor’s Office in Colorado. Then fourteen years at a Texas Trade Association. She was Manager of a Computer Magazine Publishing Company. The last few years of working were spent in sales, which led to her home office, as her husband’s health declined.

Since her husband’s death, Mary Ann has written several books, including a Book of Poetry, Children’s Short Stories, Reflections, The Pioneers and her just published book, Journey of My Heart, A Memoir.

During the last quarter of 2012 Mary Ann was engaged with speaking engagements and book signings in several states, as well as radio interviews from New York City, Dallas, Denver, Portland and Seattle, Washington.
