I received a birthday gift of little tiny cards that when you open them, they give you a positive thought to dwell upon.

The name of the box of cards is called, "It's All In Your Head."

Here's the very first card I drew, randomly from 60 cards:

"Set your sights high, the higher the better. Expect the most wonderful things to happen, not in the future but right now. Realize that nothing is too good," ~ Eileen Caddy.

Here's another randomly drawn card from my belated birthday gift of It's All In Your Head box of inspirational quotes :

"Aerodynamically, the bumblebee should not be able to fly. But the bumblebee doesn't know it, so it goes on flying anyway," ~ Mary Kay Ash.

Another randomly drawn quote from my belated birthday present of It's All In Your Head box of thoughtful inspiration:

"Become a legend in your own time. Instead of spending $100 on a fancy dinner plus a $20 tip, spend $3.95 at McDonald's and leave a $10 tip. You'll make someone's day. And your day, too."
