Finish this sentence with the first words that come into your mind:
When I look at my life,
I see ___________ and ______________.
I see ___________ and ______________.
If you like what you just said... that's great! If what you just said shows you something interesting about yourself that you'd like to change, now is the time to take steps to make some changes. Start first with that thought, how can you rewrite the sentence in a more positive way, and still make it sound and feel true for you?
Remember, if you rewrite the sentence to be how you "wish" it was, or how you think it "should" be, or even how you "want" it to be, it will not have nearly the effectiveness that it will if you can rewrite it in such a way that you KNOW the truth of it.

"EXCITEMENT AND ADVENTURE" Wow! Where did that come from. I suppose it's true! Never a dull moment around here. I may be broke but we manage to do alot of cool things and it's never boring! I think I like that answer!
"LOVE AND HAPPINESS" Would be another phrase I would like to be using more. I'll try focusing on that today!
I see hope and light. A bit of a surprise and a delight, I am making the right decisions now in the moment, I can change any of that any time as well.
I love starting the day off that way!!
I see peace and gratitude. For the first time in my adult life, I feel really at peace in my life, I'm present in the moment most of the time, and I never forget to count my blessings!
I see happiness and healing. For the first time I am a father and I'm living in a tropical paradise!
When I look at my Life, I see Love and Beauty
Wow... you guys are GOOD!
When I look at my life I see chaos and confusion.
That's the first thing that came into my mind - but it isn't true!!
I'm busy - I'm working really hard - but it's all very organized... not much chaos.. and very little confusion. So, I wonder where THAT statement came from.
When I look at my life I see... well... my life. Yes, there is some "stuff" and there is some joy, and there is some pain, and there is some lack, and there is some limitation, and there is love, and there is freedom, and there are bills, and things, and messes to clean up. It's a human life... not perfect by a long shot, but not bad either. I am loving my life right now - warts and all. How cool is that?
Ok: This one is true
When I look at my life I see my life and I see myself and I like who I am.
