What percentage of the time do you spend talking about your stress versus talking about your dreams?
Arguing for your weaknesses versus championing for your strengths?
Dwelling on the negative simply contributes to its power.
So please accept this challenge of beginning your conversations with your dreams instead of your stress.
In doing so you energize your day and everyone around you.
Trust me. I speak from experience.
When we focus on what’s right — If only 1% of our day —
Everything changes for the better.

Keep Dreaming. Keep Believing.
The world needs dreamers like you.
Thriving Under Pressure 
Love..Love..Love this! Since I have focused on learning self, dreams, having faith and looking forward blessings abound. Positivity breeds positivity in ones self and those who surround. One need not sacrifice to instigate great change rather be more of the goodness that they already are. Love this adaptation, “If you want to fly, give up everything that weighs you down.” Negativity is a weight that we have gotten used to carrying. Positivity is a hope, a light, an invitation 🙂
“Positivity is a hope, an a light, an invitation.”
Amen beautiful! Amen.
Thank you so much for your extra dose of positivity! Indeed, if we focus on what is right, everything changes for the better. I remember being stressed last week with my mom and instead of focusing on the issue, I diverted my attention instead. The next day, we were good.
Such a simple message yet so profound at the same time.
Thanks for your continued inspiration.
❤️ 🇦🇺 🇨🇦 ❤️
Thank you for this positive message! It’s so easy to get caught up in the negatives that we need this reminder daily!
My pleasure Teresa! Thank you for the encouragement.💃
I’ve made a rule in my house to only talk about the things we want in our life.
I love your house rules. 🏠💥
You are one brilliant Mom!
Aww…thank you.
Good post Andrea. I’m a dreamer and it’s my little escape into my fantasy world. Dreaming is good, even if you don’t realise your goals. I think of it as a place like heaven which you can visit and make it exactly how you want it to be…😊
I love your take on dreaming! A little slice of Heaven available to us all. #keepdreaming #keepbelieving
I very much believe in the power of attraction.
I am like those old radio stations….
24 hour positive, all day, all night,
Hope you are well. Have a great week.
If only you could see my smile! We tune into the same LOA radio station every single day. And it shows! “Good vibes all the time.” 😀
✨🙌
A beautiful reminder, Andrea. We can get so caught up in talking about negatives and stress that it becomes a habitual thing. Moving away from that and putting out more positivity, talking about our dreams, giving out good vibes are all such important things to do for ourselves & those around us!

Thank you for watching and reflecting on the topic Caz. I always love hearing from you on my blog. If anyone knows the importance of focusing on what’s good – it’s you! You could have 99 health reasons to feel down in a day, and somehow you always reach for the 1% good. #inspired xoxo
Thanks Andrea,
Will write them in my journal. Love your green theme:- eyes, fleece & walls. Funny, I am wearing a warm green sweater today. I feel different when wearing different colours. I don’t wear green often but when I do I find it quite calming 🙂
My pleasure Margaret! You motivate me to keep filming and writing x 100. Writing in your journal and per chance wearing a green cozy fleece like me = Synchronicity! BTW green is the colour of the heart chakra. How cool is that.. 😀
That is wonderful to hear Andrea. Synchronicity, yes and must start wearing green more 🙂
Thank you for this important reminder. ☺
It can be so easy to slide into negativity.
This post should help curb the easy slide into negativity…. https://drandreadinardo.com/2018/10/12/tips-for-managing-negativity/ <– This post was Inspired by the first psychologist in our family.. My Mom! Two generations of psychologists in one family. How blessed are we. 😀 😀
I love your reminder to begin conversations with our dreams. I’m intending to make more room for dreams, spirit and thriving this year and this is a good tool to support them. Thanks Andrea. 🙂
Making room for Dreams + Spirit + Thriving in 2019 sounds divine. Your photography creates a divine space for us to do the same. Grateful for your blog! #2019 #visionboard
Thank you Andrea.
Love this, Dr! This is how we manifest in our lives! I learned it quite by accident but since I did, I have managed to bring into my life exactly what I wanted. Love how you encourage people to be their best selves, and show them the path to getting there! 🤗
Thank YOU for the encouragement! Full circle good vibes .. my favourite! I hope your weekend has treated you as beautifully as you treat others. Kindness domino effect of the highest kind.. 😀 😀
Thank you for the Friday inspiration, Andrea! 💯%
I hope Friday’s inspiration lifted you up
– all weekend long Sylvester!
A huge weekend-long lift thank you so much!
Beautiful reminder for a very peaceful and positive life.
Thank you! May your day be as bright as your dreams. The more goodness you share. The more we all benefit. Grateful for your uplifting blog. Full circle sunshine!
All my pleasure 😇
Thanks for the dose of positivity!
My pleasure! I hope you have a chance to share your dreams with someone today! Including me. ☀️
🙏😊🙏
Nice sentiments, doesn’t hurt to give it a try.
Stress is one of my major downfalls.
Take Care D.
Stress is stress. Shared by us all D, I get it. I appreciate your promise to yourself to try for the month of February. I overflowing cup at a time. 💦☀️
MyTEDx on thriving under pressure (stress) might help too:
Let me know how February goes!
Dr. Andrea 😊
After being a half-empty-glass for half my life I’ve learned how much of my negativity (conscious or unconscious) was affectin me (while blaming others or circumstances)…. This is the kind of reminder one should print A4 and stick to their wall… I will! 😀
Yes and YES 🕺💥
I see optimism as a mindset and a set of behaviours more than a personality trait.
You got this B! 💯💃
