This past Tuesday we had a great activity centered on positive thoughts and the clicking experiment. The clicking experiment started with the Mormon singer/songwriter and blogger, Hillary Weeks. She got a clicker that would count each time she clicked and at first clicked for ever negative thought she had. After not to long she realized that the negative thoughts in her life were outweighing the positive and decided to switch and count the positive thoughts instead. Now it has become a wide spread experiment with the goal of reaching one billion clicks.
Our young women and all the leaders were given clickers to track our positive thoughts.
Truthfully, my first day was not a great one. I missed my train, my salad exploded in my school bag and for a brief moment I thought I lost my clicker!
But I tried my hardest to think of the good things that came from these negative things.
The best thing that happened was the opportunity to go to an Institute class where for a little portion we talked about thoughts and what positive thoughts can do. In class alone I doubled my clicks for yesterday.
Today, starting new, I truly hope my positive thought will grow and I'll be able to remain positive even when I have days like yesterday.
