Have you ever notice your choice of one word can cause a different feeling than another word?  I'm not talking about opposite words but using just the right word, still a positive word, but a word that changes the meaning, thus, changing the feeling  of the phrase or sentence.  Example:  You're concerned your child is making so many bad choices in their lives that he/she is destined to living an unhappy life.  Someone says, "They're a good kid.   They'll get their act together.  They'll end up doing something good in their life."  It's a nice, complimentary thing to say, but you still go down the thought path that it doesn't resonate with you enough to even feel hope.  But what it if thoughts were state using the word possible.  "It's POSSIBLE they'll get their act together and do something great and wonderful with their life."  Using the word possible makes that thought so more believable., causing you to feel hopeful instead of heartbroken.  Listen to this episode to learn several other "power words"  to help you start feeling more hope, peace and optimism.Have you received my new resource "3 Steps To Be Yourself Around Your Adult Children?"
