Hope isn’t wishful thinking. It’s an anchor that holds when nothing else can.

Our Director, Todd Sherwin, continues his series on stinking thinking. He shares that if we aren't careful, we can think that everything that is happening around us is about us, even though that most likely is not the case. From road rage to relationships, we can put into perspective that other people's actions may affect us but most likely they are not acting that way because of us.

Todd challenges us to look for the good in people and to make efforts towards not being so easily offended by others.

Marcia Tolson, Intern, gives a good explanation between reactional and eternal thinking. She gives us a good tool, a simple pause, to use in our daily lives to shift our focus from a reactional response to one that is eternal and aligns with our goals and beliefs.
