The circumstances of our lives may matter less than how we see them, says Rory Sutherland. At TEDxAthens, he makes a compelling case for how reframing is the key to happiness.(Filmed at TEDxAthens.)

Happy Monday to All!

I hope that all of you had a incredible, exciting and stress free weekend. Without question its' easy to fine one's self going in and out thoughts. Our Thoughts (like a Merry-go-Round) go round and round; up and down with joy, cheerfulness, calm and peacefulness to anger, frustration and downright fear.

So I would like to make a point worthy of noting here...We hear often that a person's character is the result of his/hers environmental force. Stated bluntly this is absolutely FALSE.

Many of the world's greatest women and men have been born in poverty and in adverse circumstances. You only have to look up the history of Lincoln, Sir Walter Scott, James Ramsay Macdonald and the list goes on to thousands.

You are empowered to create and mold your environment and circumstances through your THOUGHT POWER... become single minded and focused in your thoughts of what you want. With time your dreams and desires will come true.
