A Positive Life Philosophy

In my contemporary romance, Restart In Bristol, Skye shares her positive perspective on life. When I created Skye’s character, her outlook grew out of her bubbly personality and non-judgmental approach. Skye’s philosophy is to be happy and to surround herself with happy people. To practice non-judgment and to help others, and in doing so, she attracts similar joy and support in her own life.

Skye’s philosophy aligns with the Law of Attraction which is built on the belief that the universe and everything in it is vibratory. If you put out positive energy, you’ll attract positivity in your life. If your thoughts and actions are negative, you will attract similar negative energy in return.

I love how Skye’s philosophy is both simplistic and complex. It’s simple in what one needs to do, yet more complex when applying it in day-to-day life. It can be a challenge to stay positive when things aren’t going your way. When this happens in my life, I go “back to the basics.” I focus on my breathing, on being mindful (like reminding myself I’m well in that moment,) and on finding things to be grateful for, even if it's something small like a warm cup of tea. These actions give me a lift and help me make my way back to happy.

Excerpt from RESTART IN BRISTOL:

He chuckled. “It would be nice if life was always that simple.”

Skye turned toward him. “I think it is.”

When he raised a brow, she shared her philosophy. “I think you get what you contribute. I try to help others, and in turn when I need help, it shows up.” She flapped her palm between them. “Case in point.”

His eyes lit with understanding, pleasing her.

“I like being happy, so I surround myself with happy people.” She batted her eyes. “Or I figure out how to make the people around me happy.”

Rob didn’t take the bait. Instead, he gave her a look of disbelief. “You must have setbacks and disappointments.”

“Of course. Everyone does.” She took his hand. “When I do, no matter how hard the situation may seem in that moment, I try to remember it happened for a reason and that the universe will take care of me.” She traced hearts on the top of his hand. “And I remind myself that maybe something even better is in store for me.”

He gave her another look, and this time she couldn’t decipher it.

“It works,” she said, her voice full of confidence. “My last hardship is the reason why I moved here.” She put her palms on his chest and slowly kneaded his rock-hard muscles. “I think here is a pretty good place to be.”

“I can’t argue with that.” He cupped his large palms around her face. “You’re one special lady.”
