Imaginaton

Although Barney will tell you that using your imagination is the greatest thing one can do. Our imagination can sometimes be our worst enemy. Sometimes, things happen to us that we are not expecting and they appear to be sending us in a direction we don’t want or better said, fear. Once an event like this occurs, it can trigger our imagination, sending us on a wild roller coaster ride. We let our imaginations run wild, taking us through dark tunnels that have yet to even appear. We feed our fears and they run out of control, taking us into a world of darkness and negativity. Within a short period of time, our situation appears hopeless and now our fears convert to anger. It sounds more like something out of horror movie than a Barney Episode, but It happens all the time.
Before you let your mind strap you in to the rollercoaster, ask yourself if what you are upset about has even happened yet. Remember that if you’re preoccupying your time with what might happen in the future, it is impossible for you to have any effect on today. Most importantly, don’t waste your time trying to control the things of tomorrow that are out of your direct control. Focus on the things that you can control today and remember what you may consider to be a bad thing today, can be a great thing tomorrow.
