"The best is yet to be."

Seriously think about this for a second… Think about some of the best moments of your life. Major life events, major breakthroughs when your hard work starts to pay off, incredible times of connection and discovery. That’s what life's all about! These moments make us feel emotional, filled with love and fulfillment, and we remember them as some of the best memories we’ve ever made.
But what if I told you that the best is still yet to be? That those moments where you thought it could never get better, you’ve only tasted a few of those and you have so many more to go? The reality is any day could be the best day of your life, and it’s something to really look forward to.
Not only is this a real possibility for you, but it’s a mindset. Those who choose to see positivity in the world will find that they’re blessed with more positivity. Those who choose to believe in themselves, and that they’re capable of achieving whatever is on their heart are more likely to achieve it. Our perception is merely our lens into the world and we get to choose the glasses we wear.
Something I really admire about my girlfriend Irene is that she chooses for things to be “the best thing ever”. We literally need to use a scale of 5-15 instead of 1-10 because an average thing for her is, in her mind, a 10. Of course it’s highly unlikely that everything is truly the best ever, every time, but when she looks into the world she sees a whole lot more good than someone else because that’s what she’s looking for.
So that’s my encouragement for you today. Don’t be stuck looking back at your past and reflecting on the good old days. Create a better future for yourself by deciding that it will be, and watch it come into fruition in ways you could never have imagined.
