An old Cherokee told his grandson,
“My son, there is a battle between two wolves inside us all. One is Evil. It is anger, greed, resentment, inferiority, lies, and ego. The other is Good. It is joy, peace, love, hope, humility, kindness, empathy, and truth.” The boy thought about it and asked, “Grandfather, which wolf wins?” The old man quietly replied, “The one you feed.”
Cherokee Folktale
When people think negatively, they live in misery. When people think positively, they live in happiness. We can look at life from a dramatic point of view and feel miserable, or we can look at life from a lighthearted point of view and feel at ease. What’s really important is to have something positive to believe. We can always choose positive over negative aspects of life or switch to a better subject—get off the subject that bothers us as soon as possible. We can clear the path for happiness and success with positivity. We can learn how to turn a destructive attitude into a constructive attitude and watch our dreams become reality.
