💛 The Yellow Fire Hydrant Effect 💛
A symbol with significance and an unforgettable story behind it.
Have you ever noticed a yellow fire hydrant?
A sign to see the bright side, even in the middle of an over grown empty lot along busy streets.
Did you know? Nearly 95% of our thoughts are repetitive, programmed as negative and the brain strengthens what we repeatedly focus on.
Neuroscience shows that attention fuels neural pathways.
Choose what you focus on.
Studies on neuroplasticity reveal that consistently choosing positive cues can rewire the brain in as little as 21 days, shifting mindset, emotional resilience, and behavior.
So when you intentionally look for the yellow hydrant, you will likely find one along with seeing
✨ the good
✨ the growth
✨ the gratitude
You are literally training your brain to see more of it.
What you focus on grows.
And sometimes, all it takes is a bright yellow reminder to change the entire lens you see life through.
If yellow fire hydrants aren’t “it” for you, find a symbol to remind you to focus on the good.
