DR. NULL'S CISD WORD OF THE YEAR...
THOUGHT FOR THE WEEK...
5 Ways to be More Positive:
1. Count your blessings. You can't be stressed and thankful at the same time.
2. See your challenges as opportunities for growth.
3. Don't listen to your negative thoughts.
4. Feed yourself with positive encouragement.
5. Choose faith instead of fear!
- Jon Gordon
