Full Of It

Have you ever heard someone tell a story and felt that what they were saying wasn't quite right?  Maybe they left something out or exaggerated the details.  You might have thought, or even told them, that they were full of it.  That's a common expression to indicate that you don't believe something.  It's usually not a flattering statement.  However, there are some things that you would want to be full of in a positive way. Think of yourself as beautiful, grateful, hopeful, cheerful, useful, careful, helpful, tactful, youthful, and wonderful.

• Beautiful - You are full of beauty when you bring out the best in others. When others observe the attribute in you, it causes them to search for it within themselves.  
• Grateful - Be full of gratitude for delays. They strengthen your planning and time management skills. 
• Hopeful - To be full of hope is to be empty of excuses.  Hope makes room for creativity.
• Cheerful - When you are full of cheer, it overflows to produce possibilities.  Be known as someone that carries cheer and is willing to share it.
• Useful - You are full of use when you ask questions that lead to growth and development for others.
• Careful - Be full of care for the impression that you make, image you project, and legacy you leave.
• Helpful - To be full of help is to be a good listener.  You make a difference when you pay attention.
• Tactful - When you are full of tact, you are a builder of esteem.  Recognize the power of your reaction.
• Youthful - You are full of youth as long as you continue to pursue new ideas and embrace change.  Youth does not refer to your age, but to your willingness to learn and teach.
• Wonderful - To be full of wonder is to believe that you matter.  Know the value that you add to your relationships.
