Hello my chickens, how are you all? Are you enjoying the spring like chickens everywhere?

I actually think if you listen very closely you might be able to hear outside my window

are not chickens, They live in Manhattan. They have

chickens in Brooklyn, not in Manhattan. But there are some kind of chattering birds on the

fire escape, making noise. My cat is very interested. So I hope you are good. I am

feeling great today and I will tell you why because I decided to feel great on purpose.

Did you know that that is a thing?

It is.

Thought work is not just about trying to feel less bad.

I think that's what brings a lot of us

to thought work is we feel terrible

and we want to feel a little bit better.

But thought work is also about creating positive emotions that we want to feel on purpose.

And all of our actions flow from our feelings, and our feelings are caused by our thoughts. So in order to create positive results in our lives,

we need to generate the positive emotion that would fuel the actions that would lead to that result.

And there are a couple of ways to do this.

That's what I want to talk to you about today.
