Personally I find motivational stuffs are like sugar-high. I get all charged-up and then the deflated the next moment. Thinking of things to be grateful of is an excellent point. Some of our negativity comes from anger, resentment or bitterness which can be overcome by gratefulness. Thanks Louie for sharing your experiences.

Great advice! Yeah like you, I was in a whirlwind of negativity recently especially when a business partner (ex-business partner now) in one of my businesses stole $10,000 a few months ago! Anyway, just 2 weeks ago, I had to get back on track like what you've done. What do I do? One of the things you suggested was talk to someone. I'm glad I have another business partner who is in sync with me and who's got bigger dreams than me. The other thing I do is read or listen to one of my success books/audiobooks. Recently, I saw the video, The Secret, online. Check out my website for details. Anyway, from thesecret.tv website, you can download some motivational videos based on the movie. I have it on my Windows desktop and when I need a boost, I watch it. One last thing I do is think about what I'm grateful for. When things don't seem to go right, it's tough, but after a few minutes of focusing on things I'm grateful for, my overall mood changes. So, fellow entrepreneur, you're not alone. Let's keep moving despite the tough times. We're one step closer. Success and happiness, Louie Los Angeles, California Hi Ken.
