Things are beginning to make sense

I've been trying to direct my thoughts, or re-direct my thoughts, if necessary, to the positive.  To keep from thinking "I don't like," or "This makes me so mad," or "this won't work," it's taken concerted effort because, as the teachings of the "power" imply, you will attract what you think about.  So, when I've started to think "I don't like," I'd catch myself and think instead of what I do like about whatever or whomever the subject was regarding.  And when I found it difficult to even do that, I started thinking of some song that would make me smile (look, I'm using every trick I can think of here...don't laugh) and, appropriately, "Happy Talk," from South Pacific came to mind.
