Who say's the economy is bad?

My son's birthday is coming up this week, he is turning four, so I went to Toys R Us on Kingston Pike here in Knoxville, TN over the weekend and to my suprise it was a complete mad house. I had to park a couple stores down and walk and inside was no better, there were people everywhere, in every isle buying things. Imagine that... If you listened to the media you would think that stores hadn't had a customer in months.. Down the street at the mall the parking lot was very full as well, I didn't go into the mall but have talked to some people that did visit on Saturday and they said the same thing, people were out in force and buying.

I guess the moral to my story is don't believe everything the media says, they sale negativity. After all who wants to watch the news and hear somthing good, or buy a paper and hear about all the good things that are still going on? You would think there is none, but in reality many good things are still happening.

My advice to everyone (for what it's worth) is to limit the amount of news and negativity in your life,read what you have to and nothing more. Your attitude is one of the main contributers of your success. If you have a bad attitude, you know the "whoa is me" attitude, you will more than likely fail. CHANGE YOUR ATTITUDE and great things can happen.

I wish you all success!
