Welcome back! It's good to see you again. Please note that I am now publishing all new material at my hub site: In Context Blog

Here is a great idea from Success from the Nest:

We all carry around a YouTube library in our heads. This is a real You-Tube because it’s all about events from your life — hopes, fears, successes, failures.

By taking control of the clips in your library, you create a powerful tool.

Use the memories of past successes to fuel your future ones — and continue to add to the success media library in your head.

Now that is a real Lifehack. Use your positive memories to create a mood of optimism and enthusiasm. This is the best kind of personal affirmation, because you don’t have to overcome the feeling that you are lying to yourself. The old SNL skit where the character looks in the mirror and says, “I’m good enough, I’m smart enough, and doggone it, people like me!” can feel like a mockery when you are truly down.

Here is a better idea: play back the “You-tube” brain video of the last friendly gathering you attended, and you are on to something, especially if bowling was involved ( I’m just sayin’, who doesn’t have a good time at the bowling alley?).
