Focus on what you are doing right

What you focus on expands, so when we are focused on what we've done wrong, we create more of "what we did wrong." Even on your very worse day you did something RIGHT. Focus on that, expand on that, expand on what you did right today.

"Frosting" an Avocado Half

A whole avocado may be too much for 1 meal. How to keep the second half from turning brown? "Frost" it with Greek yogurt! The thick yogurt creates an airtight layer, and the avocado stays fresh, green and delicious--ready to eat as a healthy "frosted" snack, or to be mashed up for yogurt-based guacamole. To make it even more elegant, sprinkle the "frosting" with dill weed or paprika.
